Ernest Y Now $120,000+ VP Sales & Marketing in New England for Turbomachinery Design & Development Company -- Successfully Changes Industries, Likes Challenge, Environment -- Overcomes Several Obstacles -- SET "Head And Shoulders Above All That I Have Seen"-- Praises Marketing Director Judy M, Team

Title: VP Sales & Marketing
Field/Industry: Turbomachinery Design & Development
Compensation: $120,000 base + bonus

Reporting to the CEO, Ernie has several challenges, including: developing the brand; positioning the company for 50% growth over 5 years; and diversifying markets / products / and businesses to stabilize the effect of cyclical industries. He will lead, train and supervise three groups of salesmen and a combined marketing team. The three groups include manufactured product, engineering consultant services, and software development and sales.

Ernie is highly pleased with the move, and his ability to overcome obstacles:

"I like the challenge, the industry change, the environment, and the compensation. I was also happy to overcome a number obstacles, including age, unemployment, weight, change of industry and computer "key word / background" screening."

He was highly complimentary of his SET team and the firm's "nonhuman"

resources as well, especially the website and systematic approach:

     "From the first time we talked (some months before I left employment) until today I have been in contact with only well qualified professionals that have helped me to focus my efforts and provided unbelievable encouragement and guidance. The resources at SET are head and shoulders above all that I have seen.

     "I investigated various outplacement companies, websites available to all on the internet, and companies that "promise" to be your "agent" in selling you to the market and getting you a job."

     "The most helpful part about the "non-human resources" provided by SET is the consolidation of a myriad of tools and searches into one spot. Also helpful was the fact that you commit to a plan of action and need to report on it - this focuses you on the job and gives you a tool to look at what is and what is not done yet."

Ernie went on to mention virtually every SET resource as helpful, including the resumes and sample letters, resume distributions, guidance on interviewing and negotiations, ongoing support from his entire team, the communication strategy and SOAR stories, and his relationship with Marketing Director Judy M.
