Risk, Rewards, Regrets, and Resolve

 

Risk inherently means there is a possibility of failure. If you don’t wash your hands, you could wind up sick.

In October, I had the opportunity to give a video testimonial about the Phoenix area Career Connectors. It is on the Employer Services section of their web site. Here is the video:

When I came to Phoenix this past July, I realized very quickly my job wasn’t nearly as effective with computer job boards.
