“AuthorTec's Find ‘n Highlight feature acts as an extra reviewer for job applications. By creating a list of keywords or phrases, I can search and highlight multiple resumes simultaneously, enabling quick sorting and more efficient review. It saves me time and money.
William Hayes - Recruiter
“LeaderGuide Pro has cut my development time by more than half. Projects that have taken me 8-10 hours in the past I’m able to do in two. It was so easy to learn and use, that on day one I was able to produce a professional high quality Leader Guide and Participant Guide.”
Gaye Freedman Ed.D - Learning Solutions Architect
"I recently sat down with a colleague to build out a set of fairly detailed learning modules and I love how easy LeaderGuide Pro made it for us. The structure was already in place. I just had to ask the questions, and she fed me the content. We were able to focus on the impact we intended versus spending time messing with format. It allowed us to concentrate on what mattered most and trust that the Guide would be as professional as is possible when we were done."
Dan Eisenman - Executive Director, Equalus
