You University | The Personal Branding Podcast

In this episode of You University, I interview Abby Kohut. Abby, a brave HR professional, has stepped forward to share the secrets of her industry and to help the unemployed find and fill the 3+ million open jobs. Aside from teaching job search skills, Abby also inspires those that are out of work to not lose faith that they will find a job.  Abby, who is known as “Absolutely Abby” because she tells job seekers the absolute truth, has held positions from corporate recruiter to Senior Director of Recruiting over the past 16 years. In 2009, Abby shifted her focus to concentrate on helping candidates land their dream jobs and has spoken to over 300 job search groups. Now in 2013, Abby is determined to educate 1 million job seekers and help America get back to work by launching a 62 city cross country speaking tour, a project which is currently self-funded.  Abby and her husband Ken have left their home in NJ and are traveling across country in an RV in order to fulfill Abby’s goal to help one million job seekers
