If you are looking to restart your career after a setback, there is no-one better than Linda to give you a good kick in the right direction. She has amazing energy and drive, she forces you to re-evaluate yourself, she shows you the way forward, and she does not stop pushing you until you have achieved the result you need. Her "You Get Hired" workshop is absolutely the best.
