I personally cannot justify spending the money to pay someone to tell me the same things that a camp clinician or supervisor could tell me in person, AND if getting this information at camp, then you are working on getting hired. If you're using this program your blowing money paying someone who has no bearing on ever getting you a job. My advice is take the money and go to camp where you're going to be seen and network.

Just my $.02 guys...

I looked at the advertising, and signed up for a free trial thing -- it was three or four e-mails and a "conference call" arrangement which I didn't do. It didn't look to me to be worth the money, although I could have been wrong. It just seemed like the same-old, same-old.

I made the same judgment as CLH; camp would be a better investment.
