Lori and Jami of The Job Exchange are simply the BEST! I have worked with Lori as a client contact for temporary and permanent placements - she knows her client organizations well and is able to quickly present qualified candidates that are a great fit. I worked with Jami to update my resume and assist in my job search. She is knowledgeable and helpful as a career consultant. I highly recommend the Job Exchange!

I worked with Jami to find a new position after my company went out of business, and the outcome truly could not have been more wonderful. Jami was unfailingly professional, supportive and helpful, and an all-around invaluable resource. She made what I thought would be a challenging process (interviewing for positions completely outside of my former field) incredibly rewarding. I felt well-prepared for each interview and received offers for every one, which I credit to Jami's ability to thoughtfully match me with prospective employers.

Five months later I am still employed in the position I accepted through the Job Exchange, and it is everything I'd hoped for. I remain so grateful to Jami and the Job Exchange, not only for connecting me with this position, but for serving as such a welcoming guide to the job search world. Particularly for someone that was in my situation at the time, this was an amazing experience!
