First consulting appointment I was approached by Guidepoint via LinkedIn for a consulting call in my field of expertise. There was some pressure to respond very quickly, within an hour. After registering and confirmation, there was silence for a few weeks. After that, the client asked for an appointment and we did a 1 hour phone call. The client was polite and focussed, and I was happy I could help them.

Data Sanitization Space - To date, my engagements with Guidepoint have gone well. In terms of this latest engagement, I think there was a bit of a challenge with the actual interview process - in particular the gentlemen named Liu.

While it wasn't bad, it did make things a bit interesting as it felt like validation was more desired than free answers.

Sometimes the requests posed by the client seem a bit strange, occasionally asking for more detail than one would like to share with someone with whom one does not (yet) have a professional relationship. But by and large the information required is pertinent. My experiences with the interviews themselves have so far been positive, too.

They're a professional outfit They're a professional outfit, it's not complicated to see where my experience might match up. Most importantly any possible conflicts of interest are clear up front so I can make the right call on overall suitability. The few consultations I've participated in have been with credible people on the other side.
