Title: Director of Operations
Field/Industry: Retailing/Importing
Location:California
Compensation: 105,000 base plus 15 percent bonus opportunity

 Warren will be responsible for distribution activity of three distribution centers, with 400 people and one million square feet. He's pleased with the move:

     "It's in close proximity to home, so I do not have to move. There is no travel. It's a growing company, and this is a challenging position, although it should be less stress than usual for this business."

 Warren credited the SET website and our frequent followups for his success:

     "Setting up job alerts on job boards/banks really helped, as did the web site Supersearch. And knowing someone was monitoring me ensured I would stay motivated!"

 Warren noted many other helpful elements-the communication strategy, the process of uncovering all his skills and strengths, strategies for interviewing and negotiating, the Personal Profile, the resume and sample letters.

 He used the website often for many purposes, appreciated the ongoing services, and the close support he got from his Campaign Manager Karen S.
