Harrington & Reed to Assist Disabled Veterans, Forms Strategic Alliance with LibertyTree Enterprises

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 19, 2008 -
Paul Adams, CEO of LibertyTree Enterprises, is proud to announce a Strategic Alliance with premier executive resource firm, Harrington & Reed, Inc., to provide Disabled Service Veterans with the latest Online video introduction technology, thus enabling wheelchair-bound Veterans to "interview" via the Internet without the challenge of physically going on job interviews.

"We feel that Harrington & Reed's new online video service represents a breakthrough of unprecedented significance for Veterans in wheelchairs.", says Mr. Adams. "The idea of being able to introduce yourself electronically  via digital Online video saves the extraordinary psychological and physical stress associated with actually going on job interviews.  We are indeed fortunate that D. Christopher Jenkins, Harrington & Reed's CEO, is volunteering to initiate this program.  HIs firm will produce two NETVYOU candidate videos for Disabled Veterans and host them Online free of charge each month. We would like to explore ways to expand the offering to even more Veterans.", continues Adams, a former executive client of Harrington & Reed and a continuing H&R Resource Partner.

Mr. Adams, who is also a West Point graduate and the former head of the Nevada Republican Party, is himself a Disabled Service Veteran, and he understands the difficulty of such Veterans going on traditional face-to-face screening interviews.  "Not only is there the visual image of the wheelchair, which the video intro eliminates, but there is the incredible physical challenge of transporting the heavy chair itself to the interview.", states Adams,  "It can be daunting to say the least."  

Mr. Jenkins adds, "The NETVYOU Online video presents you at your best instantly to any interviewer anywhere in the world, and it can do it hundreds of times each month, all without leaving home.  It's a breakthrough for any job seeker, but it's even more meaningful for the person whose mobility is limited."

"Mr. Jenkins of H&R approached me with this plan, and we immediately embraced it", adds Adams. "The timing of his offer couldn't be better, considering the Iraq war."  The need is paramount for new tools, technologies, and techniques to boost morale and keep Disabled Service Veterans in a positive frame of mind while making the very difficult transition from being extremely active to accepting the limitations of a wheelchair.

Mr. Jenkins adds, "We will be exploring more ways to bring this amazing new capability to those who have defended our way of life."
