Whether you are stuck in a slump, want to kick your career into overdrive, or it’s simply time to make a change, we’ve outlined some career-defining moves to consider.

Candidates continue to lie on their resumes. In fact, hiring managers and recruiters are seeing an increase in the number of lies they encounter
As far as agency recruiting goes, there are way too many “fly by night” shops that give our industry a terrible reputation. I have worked with countless recruiters over the years, many of which are phenomenal, and many others – not so much.

Combine that with knowledge, or your areas of financial expertise, and you put yourself in a great position to meet your career goals.
