Here is the story of one of Raul's clients who just landed, and what he learned in the process...
Thank you!
After an interesting and personally fulfilling transition that included developing and launching a small business, social marketing professional development, and writing and preparing to market an eBook on managing your job transition, I am pleased to let you know that I have confirmed and accepted a marketing position with OptumHealth, the consumer healthcare division within UnitedHealth Care that provides personalized heath management support and services to consumers.
I start on Monday as the new Senior Manager on the marketing team and will lead the marketing initiatives for the Chronic Condition and Complex Condition Management teams. Specifically, I will be responsible for product marketing initiatives for case and utilization management, chronic disease conditions outreach services for asthma, coronary artery disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, diabetes, and heart failure, and complex conditions such as cancer, women’s health, bariatric, and transplant services. I will be located at the OptumHealth offices in Golden Valley.
One of the key things I learned during this process was the power of developing and maintaining your network, and that there are a lot of people professing a search process that may or may not be effective. If I can be of assistance to you or those you know in transition, please feel free to refer them to me to network. I would be happy to share what I found worked and what didn’t in today’s market.
Thanks again for all your help. Whether you were one of my mentors or my many “cheerleaders”, an internal company “champion”, or one of my key references, your insight and support has been invaluable. Have a great weekend and please let me know how I can pay it forward. And hang on to this contact information for me. It will be the easiest way to get me engaged if and when you need to.
