Are you not getting the results you want from your resume or networking? Are you frustrated, ready to quit your search? Maybe a buddy to lean on will help keep the motivation going and give you the important feedback you need to keep on track, be more productive, and find success in your search.  Learn the “hands-on” steps needed to find and successfully utilize a Work Search (Accountability) Buddy.
