Location:Houston, Texas
Compensation: $193,000

 Reporting to the VP Materials, Lydell will be responsible for Material Acquisition, Procurement, Warehouse, Lean Flow internal and external, Material Cost Reduction, Process Improvement, and Supplier Performance. He sees a good fit and volunteered these comments:

 There is a good match between the companys requirements and my skills and experience. The location is reasonably close to where I currently live and relocation should not be a problem. The total compensation package exceeded my expectation. I also overcame age and unemployment as obstacles.

 Lucy C was a perfect Marketing Director for my marketing plan. She was able to clearly communicate to me how to relate my strengths and overcome or redirect my shortcomings. While I am very good at my area of expertise, I did not know how to clearly demonstrate and communicate my strengths, skills, experience and market to obtain a job.

 After we initiated the marketing plan, I was spending all day responding to opportunities. Every time I accessed the SET resource team, I was provided timely and thorough responses. I received weekly calls from the team on any help they could offer in assisting me in maximizing the marketing plan.

 The negotiation tactics helped me prepare and to land a package that exceeded my expectation. I am a believer in SET! And, with my son completing college in a few years, I can continue to utilize SET resources!

 I do not want to leave out my initial contact Hank J. He actually is responsible for selling me on the SET process. I immediately connected with Hank and felt I could hold him responsible for what he said he would do. And, he wanted me to! This is true of the entire process. The one-two punch of Hank and Lucy was perfect for my situation, industry and personality. Thank you.
