“He has been stopped.”
I’d given up hope that I would ever be able to do anything about my past boss who has been badmouthing me. Thanks to the “Cease and Desist Letter” he has been stopped. Thank goodness I found out about your service – I would have contacted you years ago if I’d known your services existed.
It’s one thing to suspect I had a ‘bad apple’ in my reference barrel, another thing to confirm it. And then, being able to do something about it with your Cease & Desist letter – I finally feel like I’m getting my career back. Thanks so much!
It’s one thing to know I had a bad reference, another to be able to do something about it. I’m (finally) employed again after many months of searching. Many thanks!
