John Bates; the Job Guy

I am the Job Guy, a Career Coach and Advisor who leverages expertise and perspectives gained from 4000+ hiring decision makers to help clients develop personal brands that pave the way to rewarding and productive careers.

I have helped hundreds of:

W-2 employees and solopreneurs under age 65 who don't already own the 3 basics of modern survival: indoor plumbing, clothing, and a personal branding or career strategy.

Miserably employed professionals who run the risk of jumping from the frying pan into the fire just to escape a bad boss or job.

Those who need/want a stronger professional network.

Mid-career (aren't we all in the new economy?) professionals who wonder "is this all there is?"

Solopreneurs who want to return to traditional employment; traditionally employed who want to be solopreneurs (efforts to look for jobs and clients succeed and fail for the same reasons, you know).

Really talented people who have horrible resumes or freak out about interviews.

Those who would like to have fun doing something that isn't supposed to be (yeah, that would be job stuff with a really upbeat career coach)

Professionals who feel about their careers as they do about a 15 year old car: nothing wrong with it, but might just be time for a new one anyway!
