Yes. UnderstandAbly, the employees were more concerned about paying their bills and finding another job, then they were rolling over their 401k. I can’t blame them.

Yea worked well got 4 good rollovers. Referrals are key here. Focus on who you know then get introductions. Or do a lunch/dinner and get them to invite their coworkers

Also genuinely try to help them get re-employed. I’ve helped a few people find help with polishing up their resumes as well as giving them heads up about local career fairs.

Once you get one, ask them to refer you to others

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM.

Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.

I am seeking new employment, I was recently laid off due to lack of work. I would very much appreciate any leads. I have a Bs in Construction Management and over 15 years experience with Revit and AutoCAD and 7 years of plumbing design. I have solid references and impeccable work ethic. I truly enjoy what I do.

Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
