Here are a few representative comments about my work with institutions, students and in public speaking.
"Working with Lee is a true pleasure. He is a consummate professional, who cares very deeply about his work. In my many years in the career training industry, I have never met anyone more dedicated to his students. The career services he provides are innovative and lead to immediate results. In his time at New Horizons, he effectively improved the job placement rate of our graduates to an unprecedented level---a level which far exceeded minimum standards for state and agency reporting. Lee was a valuable asset to New Horizons and would be a valuable asset to any company he chooses to work with. I would personally welcome the opportunity to work with him again, and recommend him without reservation."
Eirini DeCicco, GM, New Horizons Computer Learning Center, Wayne and Philadelphia, PA
"I had the pleasure of working with Lee Gamelin at New Horizons. Lee ran the B2C department and I ran the B2B department and we worked very closely together during that time. Lee was always someone that I could go to for advice, to talk strategy and to talk business. His knowledge, experience and expertise are unmatched. For someone with only about 4 years of experience in the industry, Lee's experience and mentoring was of great value to me. I've always felt that Lee had my best interests in mind and I truly consider him a mentor. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an honest, highly-skilled leader who has the ability to adapt to any situation and make the best of it. I endorse Lee without reservation and if there are any questions of any additional information needed, please feel free to contact me directly."
Zack Hiscock, Sales Manager, NetCom Learning, Philadelphia, PA
"You are fabulous!!! I so appreciate your time, input, patience, diligence and willingness to help the kids and accommodate their schedules. I know that they really did benefit and garnered some much-needed advice. This was a huge start in helping prepare our students for the real world. They MUST set themselves apart from the rest. You are a gem and I hope we can do this again in the future."

“You possess highly developed personal qualities and are a resourceful and persuasive leader. Your ability to analyze large amounts of information quickly and your ability to evaluate the relationships among numerous factors were key in our qualifying for state licensure, both here in New York, and in Massachusetts. But what I think I appreciated most about you was the positive attitude you brought to each challenge; nothing was too large or too difficult to overcome, and that infectious spirit has stuck with me.”
Steven Hendriks, President and CEO, Career Academy of New York, Oakdale, NY
"I observed Mr. Gamelin demonstrate expert job search knowledge in his seminar entitled "The Science of Getting the Job You Really Want Quickly." Mr. Gamelin's tutelage and enthusiasm underscored his expertise...

"The nine workshops which you conducted, Resume Preparation and Job Hunting Strategies assisted clients who would otherwise not have received this valuable assistance in returning to the job market. The comments received from the participants were all positive and mentioned how beneficial it was about learning new strategies in their job search, and how to write an effective resume. Thank you, Lee, for providing these workshops at my Agency."

“Lee Gamelin is an outstanding job-coach and a master teacher. His demeanor is professional, yet informal, giving genuine, focused attention to each individual. His expansive knowledge of the job market from both the job-seeker’s and employer’s perspectives is revealed to the participants in easy to read and understandable eLearning Modules, creating cutting-edge, creative and realistic tools and attitudes for the job market. Lee augments his e-modules with interactive workshops and coaching sessions. My own career expectations turned upside down while progressing methodically through the activities Lee mapped out, and now reflect what I love to do. Using a variety of techniques taught by Lee, I am highly motivated and enthusiastic about finding a position. It is an honor to be a student of Lee Gamelin.”

He also set high standards for ongoing performance in order to attain the critical mass needed for today's job search. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone.”
