Charles Timmons and Larry Camarda, et. Al. Hindered my job search with ill-written resumes and letters. I paid Merrill-Adams a good sum of money the day before they closed their doors to help me with a job search. Charles Timmons deposited my money to a company he controls (The Timmons Group) and started to provide services under the name PMA wihtout informing me immediately.
They did re-write my resume for me and although I was not completely comfortable with the outcome, I decided to use it for an extended period of time. It is only after more than a year of frustration that I gave it to HR professionals and others I know that hire at companies. They universally indicated that the product PMA wrote for me was terrible.
Additionally, Camarda especially, did not answer my questions concerning various aspects of their assistance directly. I have a particularly frustrating set of e-mail correspondence that I kept and will make available to others.
I would have been much better off hiring a professional for $300-$600 to write a resume (there are people certified to do just that) and read a couple books concerning networking etc. Please save your money.
When faced with my situation, Charles Timmons agreed to meet with me to work out a deal that we would both be happy with. We did agree to a settlement, but as usual, he did not get back to me with the deal in writing, so in effect I am left paying a huge amount of money for nothing. My only recourse at this point is legal and I will pursue that angle with every thread of my being.
