With over 15 years’ experience in employment services, Stephen Sofos is one of the most mission-driven employment services practitioners I have ever met. He not only gets what it takes to build employer relationships and carve job opportunities, he’s also an incredible jobseeker motivator.

And this is what makes him one of the most successful reverse marketers in the industry.

Also, he has one of my favourite LinkedIn Employment practitioner profile summaries. I’m going to copy and paste it here.
“WHY I do what I do - I believe everyone that wants to work, has the right to work.
WHAT I do - I engage with organisations and advocate for candidates who have a disability.
HOW I do it - I network, talk to organisations about staffing needs and come up with solutions.”

Now he blew me away on this podcast. I say stop everything right now and hit tthe play button to listen to the full podcast.
