Scott C Wins $65,000-plus Vice President Post with Bank in Minnesota-Credits Resume, Campaign Manager

Title: Vice President
Field/Industry: Banking
Location:Minnesota
Compensation: $65,500 plus $15,000 annual incentive compensation

 Scott was pleased to accept this offer, where he will be involved in commercial lending and business development, for several reasons. In his words:

     "The bank has a strong reputation. The EVP is retiring in 2-3 years and I was hired to replace him after he retires. The overall pay/benefits package is strong, which includes a 401K plan, pension plan, and profit sharing. In addition, my incentive pay will add between $10,000 and $25,000/year to my base salary."

 Scott noted that many parts of SET's service were helpful, and made special mention of two of them:

     "Having a top notch resume was very helpful. Also, being able to talk with my advisor, Larry M, as different issues came up was important."

 Scott also saw a lot of value in the use of the website, the resume distributions to recruiters and e-cruiters, the plan for developing interviews, the communication strategy, solutions for sensitive issues, the ability to uncover all his strengths, the letter samples, and the plan for developing interviews.
