Read what Guerrilla Job Seeker Boot Camp Graduates had to say!
Two job offers within three weeks!
I wholly endorse Mark Haluska and the 10 Week Guerrilla Job Seekers Boot Camp. Within 3 weeks of working with him I received two job offers!
My former employer offered to pay for my outplacement training provided by a large, nationally known firm. They teach the traditional job search methods and that was not for me. It's simply too competitive out there now days and therefore I chose to go Guerrilla instead. The Guerrilla proprietary job seekers software, course materials, twice weekly conference calls and especially Mark’s pre-interview coaching was priceless.
In large part and thanks to Mark I’m now employed for a very large financial institution working on an exciting high priority world-wide IT project. That is just “one” of the many, many benefits of working with Mark Haluska. He’s the complete Guerrilla Job Coach. When you are part of the 10 week Guerrilla Job Seekers Program; he will teach you a multitude of Guerrilla tactics to help you succeed in your job search. What impressed me the most is that he will (also) actually reach out to his many corporate connections and, if deserving, put his own reputation on the line to help you get in touch with company decision-makers where he can. Mark did it for me and I got the job. I started last week. Life is good again and I intend to make the most of it.
I’ve finally graduated from the Guerrilla Job Seekers Boot Camp. Mark Haluska, the only "Senior" Certified Guerrilla Job Search Coach for all of North America, was my coach, instructor and mentor for this incredible Guerrilla boot camp.
When I started the course, little did I know the paths it would lead me to... to make a long story short, I interviewed yesterday and, after just that one interview, was offered the position a few hours later. When I shared the news with Mark, even he was stunned at how fast the offer was tendered. Not bad for someone whose mission was to be a career changer at this stage in my working life.
The real key to success was working with Mark to develop a unique resume that actually helped me stand out for this opportunity. His one-on-one coaching really clarified the concepts in the books that matched my expertise. Plus, he taught me how to effectively utilize Guerrilla Job Seeker techniques not covered in the book.
For example, Mr. Haluska taught me how to get into a $2,000, three-day industry insiders convention that I couldn't afford. Using a technique Mark taught me, I was able to attend the conference (including meals) - all for free!
The Guerrilla job seeker books are fantastic but NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, can come close to the one-on-one Guerrilla Coaching and "individual" attention you receive in the 10-week job seekers course. If you have not seriously given this boot camp all due thought, you really should and talk with Mark.
I'm very pleased and want to extend many, many thanks to Mr. Haluska.
Finally going to be able to enjoy a true work/life balance
Mark, thank you so much for your great work, support, and patience during my job search. You came very highly recommended. I describe your time and expertise as "Top notch". I was pleasantly surprised at the level of your support be it day, evenings and even weekends to help me navigate my job search process. Your counseling and Guerrilla knowledge instilled the confidence in me that I needed on my end to push forward in my career. I recently accepted a new Engineering position offered with a terrific compensation package, a much shorter commute, far less hours at the office and now I’m finally going to be able to enjoy a true work/life balance. Best of luck with "Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters 3.0" and if you are ever in Toronto I would like to meet you in person.
Interviewed less than a week after submitting my resume!
As I write this, the economy is in the tank. Prior to being unemployed, I had already "heard of" Mark Haluska through other people’s success with him. Haluska came highly recommended from other professionals that I implicitly trust so I called him when I lost my position. Under Mark's guidance, I targeted an employer I was interested in working for. I then used the Guerrilla strategies Mark personally taught me. "In Less than a week," after submitting my resume under Mark's close supervision and counsel, I received a call from the organization's CFO for an interview. Call it luck, or call it Guerrilla preparation under Mark's direction. But the point remains that with a bloated populace of millions of job seekers vying to get an employer's attention, and then in fact getting a call from a genuine decision maker that fast is almost unheard of in this day and age.
I lost my job May of 2010. After 5 months of working my job search the same ways I had done in years past, I really started to think a job offer would never come my way. I tried everything but to no avail. I decided to call Mark Haluska. Being aged 50 likely was a strike against me but under Mark's close direction and the 10 week Guerrilla Job Seekers coaching program (boot camp) it unquestionably took me over the top.
Mark showed me a highly unconventional method that (he claimed) would get me "front of line interview privileges" and employers would actually "call me." I was game but also skeptical. What sticks in my mind are Mark's comments that if I wasn't uncomfortable (at first) in following these tactics, then I was doing something wrong! Then, moments later I became apprehensive and began to think maybe he was a bit crazy because; he also said I would NOT be using a resume (not even a Guerrilla Resume) as an initial means to get invited to an interview. Companies actually did call me just as Mark said they would!
Another key task during my boot camp was the "career clarity" objective. Mark was right there with me in helping me to determine / define what that was for me. Again, I thought he was sorta crazy, so "initially" I went with what my previous job / recent accumulated skills had developed even though that particular occupation did not excite me. Fortunately my job search results using this tactic kept me busy but did not allow me to hit pay dirt. As it turns out, Mark's initial assessment of me was dead on right from the very beginning. So, with some additional tweaking and fine tuning I came up with something more exciting to me, which in turn led to many more "hits," subsequently reaching that illusive job target!
Just weeks after using this uncanny tactic, I was offered a new position. This untraditional method "does" work and I am living proof. I start my new job May 16, 2011 as a Territory Manager for an exciting company. Now I have a new gig, had a great Guerrilla instructor, made a new good friend and professional advisor in Mark Haluska. I am very excited about my future and more specifically I really feel as though this will be the perfect company, the perfect job that suits me, with potential compensation that I could not have imagined when I started this boot camp.
I highly recommend the Guerrilla Job Seekers coaching program to anyone struggling with their current job search. The old methods simply do not work unless maybe you're just starting your career. For those of us with more advanced skills however, this is where you need to be… it's a long road, but you'll learn a lot about yourself. It's also important to forget what you think you know about the job market and embrace these tactics, put your head down, dig in, and get ready, they work!
Mark was my ‘guerilla' job coach at a time when I really needed professional help to get my career back on track. He conducted a ten week course that taught me how to find career opportunities, and create opportunities where none existed or were otherwise unknown ("hidden") to the general public. Then, Mark showed me what to do to pursue those opportunities and present myself as a winning candidate who stood apart from the crowd. The benefit of the course was that it was not merely informative on paper, but it was also practical with directives for implementation (e.g. daily "tasks"), and was backed by Mark's ever-ready availability (via telephone and internet) to provide tutelage, and to give me one-on-one counseling when the need arose. Mark was ALWAYS there for me and stood by my side until I ultimately found success. He generously gave me his time and wisdom - a priceless value far exceeding the cost of the course.
During my work with Mark, I discovered what "job search coaching" truly means. It's not just a lesson plan taught by someone - it's a personal touch that addresses the client's specific and unique needs - both professionally and emotionally during a time of high stress. Mark is a special person with the skills, knowledge, abilities and HEART to help you achieve your goals when you know what they are, but just don't quite know how to accomplish them. During the time I spent with Mark, I learned how to achieve those goals myself and also made a wonderful friend along the way. I am forever indebted.

I "was" out of work for more than a year. While unemployed, I finally came to the realization that I urgently needed "something" or "someone" to help me revitalize my job search efforts. I heard about Mark Haluska on a job seeker related blog and I decided to contact him. Mark is a highly dedicated (job seeker) boot camp coach. He took a personal interest in me; just as he did with all the other people in the class. He just has this uncanny way of bringing out the best in people, when you take (and then put-to-use) his coaching advice. As a result, the course taught me to be proactive and take "real control" of my job search; and ultimately my own future ! I was very skeptical at first because there is of course an investment in the course, and there are a lot of "so-called" job coaches out there. Take it from me, the Guerrilla Job Seekers 10 week coaching program is the real deal, and so is Mr. Guerrilla---Mark Haluska.
The past 2 months have been crazy…here is the good news! I got a job offer with GE Healthcare…I was very interested in their Corporate Finance role and am looking forward to being a part of that company. The hiring committee was very impressed with my resume and experience. I had applied for a position on their website using the Guerrilla resume.
I am emailing you to thank you for all the support/encouragement and your efforts on my resume without which--I would not be here.
Best Regards,
Geetha Ramachandran, Jersey City, NJ
My resume and cover letters are a bases-loaded Gram Slam! I'm an IT professional. How can an IT professionals resume and cover letter look like gold and grab an employer's attention? My wife and I are simply amazed at what Mark did for me. Then there was the one-on-one job seeker consulting he provided which was priceless and very necessary. My resume and cover letters are a bases-loaded Gram Slam!
As a Guerrilla Job Seeker, I had an 80% success rate with my resume!
It gets better and much more rewarding than that, but let's start at the beginning.
I had been working in the financial services industry since 1981. Having achieved senior executive level status, the corporation I worked for (a very well-known global financial services organization) let me go after more than 20 years of service. To be fair to all parties concerned, when I left my last employer, it was actually more of a mutual parting of the ways. None-the-less there I was, unemployed for the first time in my life and in my 50's and not sure what I was going to do. Because we have been living in the worst employment market period since the great depression of the 1930's, I knew competition for any job at my level would be stiff and wondered "Who will hire someone at my age?" and "Will I have to sell my home and move away from family and friends?"
My former employer did offer to send me through a pricey nationally known outplacement service as part of my severance package. So at least at the outset, it offered me some level optimism. I attended the seminars, met with my job counselor and so-forth since it was on my (now) former company's dime. It was my belief that the price was right and what could it hurt?
I will say that the people at the outplacement company certainly were nice enough, but I can't say they really taught me anything new. Essentially what I walked away with was a new resume (that I had to correct) and (was) given a list of all the local Pittsburgh area executive recruiters to contact should I opt to. That pretty much sums up my experience with that high visibility outplacement organization my former employer uses. That money could have been put to better use; like putting it in my pocket to provide a financial buffer while I conducted a job search in these challenging times.
Fast forward a full year and then some. By this time I had sent out literally hundreds of resumes. The net result? I was no further ahead in my job search than I was a year earlier. Much to my disappointment, companies simply were not acknowledging receipt of my resume; I wasn't getting interviews so it was obvious to me that a job offer certainly was not in the cards any time soon.
Thanksgiving weekend was now on the horizon and my wife and I agreed that if I were not employed by that time, we would sit down and have a family discussion. The holiday weekend comes and I'm still unemployed. As agreed we had our family gathering to discuss my career situation and what I need to do next. During that meeting my wife said, "Steve you are very good at what you do, but you are not very good at marketing yourself in this economy. You need to find some professional help."
Not long after the Thanksgiving holiday, I found myself reading career search related blog articles written by Mark Haluska, a Certified Guerrilla Job Search Coach and a co-author of the international bestselling "Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters 2.0" book. I'd never heard of him prior, but the job search advice in his articles surely resonated with me. I checked Mark's credentials as an Executive Recruiter and as a Guerrilla Coach, as well as his close business alliance with David Perry and Kevin Donlin. Satisfied with my findings, I concluded that Mark would almost certainly be a worthy job search mentor.
At that time I was also in the preliminary talking stages with another career coach as a possible person to help me get back to work, but Haluska's career search articles really piqued my curiosity. It was then that I took what would be my first Guerrilla step and called Mark regarding the 10 week Guerrilla Job Search program.
In my first phone discussion with Mark he said that should he agree to bring me on as a client I would have to first commit to diligently work the Guerrilla Job Search course on a full time basis. That's 40 hours a week. Upon reflection, the course was not only fast and furious but it was also out and out grueling at times. Not once did I ever have to wonder what I would need to do next to find a new job because between having a direct line to my coach whenever I needed him, the regularly scheduled phone conference calls, the Guerrilla software and my weekly lesson plans; it was all laid out for me.
Secondly, Mark told me that because of my rather conservative career background in financial services, and my senior level (to) be prepared to do things that will make me feel somewhat "uncomfortable" at times. Lastly, he advised me to feel free to ask any questions I wanted about the tips and tricks I'll be learning as we go, but ultimately I'll be required to execute those tactics in order to remain in the program.
By this time it was becoming abundantly clear to me that this guy was going to be more like a drill sergeant than what I would have envisioned an executive coach to be like; so much for preconceived notions. That said, everything else I had tried to do for more than a year to find a new position was not working for me. I needed to get back to work! As a result, I agreed to Mark's terms and with that, I started the course with Mr. Haluska as my Guerrilla coach about a week later.
While I was enrolled in the Guerrilla Job Seekers course I was challenged nearly every day to do things one would not normally do as a job seeker. At the same time though, I knew I was doing things that my competition (for a new job) was not doing. What is more, in order to remain in good standing in this program I simply had to execute my assignments. On occasion I would call Mark to express some concern about what he was asking me to do. I knew he did not want to hear it but I called him out anyway just to let him know my feelings. As tough as Mark was as my job search mentor he would somewhat soften up and in a most confident and convincing way say; "Steve, because the herd (of job seekers) is heading north… I'm sending you south. It's all good."
Speaking of being required to do things out of the ordinary, I recall while enrolled in the course, sharing with my family the unusual tactics that I was being coached through to find a job. At one point, my daughter, a very highly educated and accomplished person in the medical profession said to me, "Dad that stuff is just too bizarre, those things won't work!" I can laugh at about that now but at the time, it did cross my mind that she may be right!
Fast forward to the 4th week of the course; it was then I received my first unofficial job offer. By that time I had sent out only 10 (well targeted) resumes and by the course standards I was actually falling behind. It was then though that (I) surprisingly started to get action as I spent the next week (plus) literally getting worn out as a result of all of the resume activity I was getting with in-person interviews and phone screenings. Out of the 10 resumes I sent, I received 8 responses from actual hiring authorities!
By the 5th week of Guerrilla coaching, I was offered a couple of more positions. At the beginning of the 6th week with competing job offers in hand, I finally accepted a lucrative offer from an employer that not only met all of my expectations but exceeded them as it turned out to be a great fit for me. I'm now a Senior Vice President with and great organization. I believe that without the Guerrilla Job Search program and having my coach as a mentor, especially after being unemployed for so long, it may not have ever happened.
I'd like to express my thanks to coach Mark Haluska and the entire Guerrilla Team. Not only did I get a job faster that I could have ever realistically expected, but this experience has made me an even better senior level executive.

Note:: There some interesting twists to Steve's job hunt journey that would be of interest to a serious job seeker and should be on your "must view" list. For example, watch as Mark talked Steve out of actually turning down a solid job opportunity that he really wanted or as Steve shares his story as to how he achieved an 80% resume success rate... and a whole lot more! Tune in as Steve talks about his Guerrilla Coaching experience as he sits down with Kevin Donlin, co-creator of Guerrilla Job Search International and Guerrilla Coach Mark Haluska to share his success story with others. There are two separate videos.
The first video is titled, "80% Interview Success Rate for Guerrilla Resume!" and the second video is titled, "Guerrilla Job Search Coaching: Shock and Awe!"Enjoy!
"I was out of work for ten months. Like millions of others who have found themselves unemployed, I relied on all of the "generally accepted" methods people learn when reading traditional job hunting books and blogs or by attending job related career seminars.
With the clock ticking and having a family to support, not to mention the competition being stiffer than ever, I finally came to grips with the fact that my job search plan of action needed a whole new direction.
As a result, I took the chance, bit the bullet joined and Mark and his colleagues by enrolling in their "Guerrilla Job Seekers Boot Camp."
In the last 2 weeks I sent barely more than a handful of resumes. Under Mark [Haluska]'s close boot camp tutelage, I am now officially employed again. I have a great new employer with a great title and at a company offering me the professional growth and financial potential that I could only have dreamed of before.
Out of the literally the dozens of job search tactics I was learning to use, Mark was with me every step of the way. What I appreciate most, was that he was there when I needed him--last Sunday evening of all things; when he took his personal time to help me with strategies on how best to negotiate my compensation and on how to close (my now new) employer!"
"With great pleasure and gratitude, I highly recommend Mark Haluska and his "Guerrilla" job seeking coaching skills. I was laid off from a senior-level position due to economy-driven downsizing and subsequent elimination of a department.
Having purchased and previously read the book "Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters," I created a Guerrilla resume and read all of the book's Guerrilla job hunting tactics. At that point, I thought I had the perfect combination of resume and approach. In addition to my personal job hunt, I spent considerable time coaching other friends, individuals and groups to assist them with their job hunts.
Seven months later, after a highly disappointing job hunt, an acquaintance shared the great job-hunting success they enjoyed after attending a "Guerrilla Job Search Boot Camp" with Mark's coaching, I decided to give it a try. Compared to the money lost every week I wasn't working, the Guerrilla Boot Camp investment was small and, to be honest, a no-brainer.
Prior to engaging Mark for the Guerrilla Job Search Boot Camp and personal consulting, I didn't realize the sheer difference between the technical aspects outlined in the book and the additional, artistic soft skills I would quickly learn. Put simply, there's a big difference between assembling a canvas and painting a masterpiece. While the book formed a great foundation, it simply couldn't begin to cover every tool and trick needed for job hunting in the current recession.
The Boot Camp is aptly named and for people who are serious about obtaining or changing employment and, if you are willing to listen, be proactive, do the necessary work and try unique approaches, employment, it works! After working with Mark and revamping my Guerrilla resume and cover letter using his suggestions, I immediately began receiving more call-backs, even from Internet job board postings.
The networking tactics he shared allowed me to burrow further into the "hidden" job market, exposing myself to more opportunities than ever before. He offered answers to the toughest of interview questions, allowing me to tactfully handle any situation. Mark showed how creating and executing a highly targeted search actually opened more opportunities instead of narrowing them down. Within 30 days of starting to work with Mark and following his suggestions,
I made the final cut for several VP-level positions and received numerous firm employment offers. As a result, I accepted a senior-level position within 60 days of using his service. In conclusion, the investment I placed in Mark's services and Guerrilla Job Search Boot Camp repaid itself very quickly. The only regret I had was not engaging him immediately upon becoming unemployed- where the investment would have repaid itself over 100 times during the seven month period I remained unemployed while searching without his assistance."
"Like millions of Americans, after 20 years, I was laid off not long ago from a very good job. My first course of action was to purchase "Guerilla Marketing for Job Hunters."
While reading it is when I first learned of Mark J. Haluska. Mark is a contributing co-author of this excellent job seeker guide. Which by the way has the second edition coming soon! When I finished the book, I said to myself, "I just have to talk him! " Taking lessons from the book I decided to be a Guerilla Job Seeker. I wanted him to personally talk to me. With nothing to lose, I crafted a creative Guerilla style email to Mark and then just hoped for the best. Much to my amazement he actually did respond a few days later ! I asked Mark to be my personal job seeker counselor / advisor. The man is a regular General George Patton.
He MADE me do things I would have never done before. Most job seekers wouldn't either. But by stepping out of my comfort zone as he made me do, I stood out from the pack as he said I would. It was Mark's job seeker wisdom, coaching and counseling, coupled with his sense of humor that got me through these tough times. Since then and in near record time by today's standards, I just started a great new job! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Contracting Mark as my personal "sports agent" was worth every tax deductible penny and then some. I learned so much from his coaching and made a friend at the same time! If you need help, contact Mark Haluska. Guerilla hint:
If you really want his attention he likes Gino's East Chicago deep dish pizza. I just ordered Mark his "second" case of Gino's East pizza's as a gift (from me) yesterday. Do yourself a favor and get connected with Mark, so you too can stand out from everyone else out there either looking for a job or just trying to get that promotion!"
"Mark is the kind of person who knows his business, who cares and has great ideas. If you are looking for someone to offer the right kind of feedback, exemplify a LOT of personal integrity and has the ability to put you on the right track with your job search, work with Mark. I have met very few people in my lifetime that stand out as a true professional in their field like Mark. Thanks Mark, for all you have done for me and being a friend."
