Tom Shoop, Editor-in-Chief of Government Executive Magazine calls Kathryn Troutman, “Federal Job Hunt Maven”
From a Satisfied Customer
“Kathryn, I wanted to write you a note and tell you about my experience with The Resume Place …
I signed up on-line to be assigned an advisor/consultant for my federal resume, not knowing what to think or expect. We had a brief conversation about which agencies and jobs I felt were the best match for me, and which ones I should focus her talents/time. I am a mid-level career changer, and she has worked with so many public and private sector people who are so much more senior, including senior executives and attornies, that she has a really clear vision of what our end product needed to look like. This experience gave me two important things: an accelerated, hands-on personal introduction to the process, and the foundational presentation material I need to launch my personal federal job campaign. Her great organization and confidence in her own abilities gave me a great lift to hurdle over the otherwise daunting first step, and it got even better when I called her back to work on KSAs.
I have recommended The Resume Place several times already in a heartbeat to anyone looking to transition to the federal government.” » Scott Lampert, January 2010
