In my email she specifically mentioned that she was looking for consultants who had been in the business for several years. Maybe it's not your career level but how long you've been active with the company.
Better not call me..............I just told off a charity that kept calling my husband..........every two hours, three and four times a day, but when I asked if I could help them said "no" and hung up on me.
