I am always amazed when individuals seek-out my services and scoff at the price of what Vantage Career Solutions offers. First, VCS offers awesome services for a minimal price and we do not charge by the hour, but instead we charge based on the level of services provided. Like any other service provider in the world, you get what you pay for.
I am extremely proud of the work we do here at VCS, but still cannot believe how many people think that career services should be free or provided a very minimal cost. Why do people feel that investing in their careers should be any less important than investing in their 401-k or stocks and bonds? Let's dig a little deeper here, A) your career determines the amount of monies you can invest in your stock portfolio and B) without a sterling resume and professional career portfolio, you are not going to earn the top dollar you need to succeed. Still more baffling to me is how an individual can justify spending $300-$500 on a Coach bag, but cannot find the importance or value of investing $250 into their professional career.
