Christine Vaudo
It was my sincere pleasure to have Penny’s help through Keystone Associates; I couldn’t have chosen a better person to support me! She is knowledgeable, responsive, enthusiastic, and, most of all, kind. She provided important insight into my new situation and thoughtful answers to my (very many!) questions. I highly recommend Penny for anyone needing outplacement assistance.
Anthony Hines
I want recommend Penny Locey because during in my time in transition, she did a fantastic job keeping me focused and helping me to deal with the entire range of emotions that go with being in between companies. She has tremendous compassion as well as a genuine concern that her clients all get placed in their next opportunity, whatever that may be. She has great knowledge of the market and really works with you to make sure you succeed in navigating your way through this very unique time. Plus, she is a great listener which is so so important during this process. If you can get her as a counselor, you won't be sorry. I really believe it.
