Testimonials

"Thank you! This is a very much needed service you provide.  As a recruiting firm, we always prefer to place people from the local community and particularly candidates with APICS credentials."
Nancy L. Phillips, DionPhillips, LLC, 541 317-8665.

"I wanted to stop and send my sincere appreciation to the Atlanta APICS Career Center. Your support in posting a candidate bio in both the Newsletter and website were huge. I routinely visited your online Career Center and utilized some of the career searching tips that are published in the newsletter. Here recently I have accepted a position with a company that had posted a position on the APICS website.
"What a great service, keep it up!"

John L. Lee, Jr., Merial Ltd.

"Jon,
"I liked the Dear Steve and Jon note this month. I can count on one hand how many interviews where I sent a thank you card and did not get an offer. It's surprising how many people don't do that!
"On another note, I am still self employed and loving every minute of it! I get to meet people and do a little traveling. My entire career was built to lay the foundation to do what I am doing now. I am very grateful for the experience and professional relationships formed along the way. You certainly are included. Your tidbits of wisdom helped me a lot, even now when I am not looking for a job. Your networking articles are right on the mark… even for people happy in their current position.
"Thank you for your continued support to Tri-State APICS and most of all, thank you for continuing our line of communications! I appreciate what you do and who you are...
"Thanks!"
