As a college recruiter, I traveled to high schools throughout Indiana, Ohio and Michigan, conducting classroom career exploration presentations that were both interactive and educational. In my capacity in higher education I’ve gained a vast amount of knowledge in the area of careers, college and getting the cash to pay for it!
I'm a career coach that is dedicated to helping people find their career choice, the college they wish or should attend and the cash to make it all happen! My blog site at The Career Closet offers the most genuine and comprehensive information regarding career choices, how to choose ca career or college major, how to pay for it and scholarships available, and what’s the best journey to take when it comes to personal and professional future success. I'm dedicated to being successful…only when you’re successful. My passion is to educate, inspire, and give hope to young people who need it upon their search for the right career and college.
Five years ago I realized that my talents and skills play a bigger role in my future professional and personal success more than anything.
Then I realized those skills and talents I had were better suited serving people of all ages and backgrounds in their search for clarification on their own career choice, and what college to attend to start.
Now I’m using my talent and excellent public speaking skills and motivational attitude to share knowledge with other people in providing career-exploration and numerous other workshop presentations to people that need it.

In my capacity in higher education I’ve gained a vast amount of knowledge in the area of careers, college and getting the cash to pay for it!
I experienced and learned of the various areas of career and college exploration. From that I've developed a program that can guide you down the right path in understanding your own personality and how it plays a vital role in what you are good at and enjoy.
Through a personality assessment, hands-on career exploration and an understanding of your skills and talents, I can help you to create a personal profile that will be tailored to careers with which provide you the most success, financially and professionally.
It is my theory that I'm a success when you're a success.
To YOUR Success,
Keith

Any sort of “scuff-up” with the law, judicial issues on campus, credit issues you might have and even your own character will be looked at and possibly scrutinized when applying for that new job.

Most hiring companies perform background, criminal and even credit checks to verify your status and whether you are the right fit for them.
