Competency Based Interview Consultation

"Thank you to Carlo Griffin.  His experience and guidance changed my way of presenting my answers to the interview board.  Carlo was very obliging and made himself available to answer any questions I had.  I will definitely be recommending Out of the Blue to my colleagues."
