For the past 25 years, Lloyd has been a full-time career consultant and adviser to the serious minded career person from recent college graduates up to and including senior management executives and entrepreneurs.  During this time Lloyd has co-authored Career Changing:  The Worry-Free Guide, published by Little, Brown & Co.

Lloyd Feinstein ranks among the most innovative, capable, committed career coaches in the New York metropolitan area. When Lloyd speaks publicly, it's a must-see.

YOU MUST ATTEND THIS EVENT if you are now or imminently in job search mode or at least considering the possibility.  Lloyd will literally change the way you think about the job market and how you can flourish in it. You will learn some brilliant and doable job-search strategies that set you apart from (and ahead of) the pack, with a special emphasis on how managers with a financial or technical background (like almost all of you) can plan and mount an amazingly effective "marketing campaign" for your favorite brand: yourself.
