Recently, I was interviewed by Derek Olsen with Beatnik Radio to talk about the Kansas City Job Seekers Blog. I covered how the blog got started, how it has helped many people in the area, and what the future holds for the blog. Check out the links below to hear the interview.

Below is one testimonial from a job seeker who found this blog very helpful to her:
“Not even a month into my job search, I found a posting on the KC Job Seekers Blog. It was pretty broad and included a lot of the things I was looking for, and directed me to a recruiter. Never having used one before, I thought “what the heck.. if it’s on here, he must be okay” and applied. Best decision I have made. The recruiter was a godsend and made the process simple. I had the job less than two weeks after seeing the posting. Now one of my job duties includes a bit of hiring– and I have started using the blog to find candidates. Thank goodness it exists!”
