While it sounds like you’ve been through a tremendous amount over the past year your message reflects determination and a willingness to grow which are great assets to bring with you into a job search. I’d be happy to sit down with you to speak one-on-one about what exactly you’re looking for in your next job as well as a what a “valuable career” specifically means to you.
