Rick Gillis

After several years of working with clients in the career advising space, Rick Gillis has created the QTNT® (Quotient) Personal Value Calculation (PVC) process, as well as the Accomplishments Mindset and Statement, teaching workers and employers how to identify and assign individual value to job performance and personal accomplishment in an all-new way. Gillis, the inventor of this very simple performance metric, shares how the QTNT® truly levels the ‘paying’ field for anyone who earns a paycheck.

As employee #1, for the first job board in Houston,TX during the Neolithically-early days of the Internet, Gillis became the sales guy and the face of the company while learning authentic search and personal advancement by calling on HR and staffing professionals who hired for a living. When Amazon invented self-publishing, Rick began sharing his best search advice in books while speaking across the US. Before long word got out he had something uniquely new to say.

Local and national media got interested. Why was there interest in a ‘job search guy’? As the Internet was making grand strides in business and in the lives of everyone who worked, two or three financial recessions crashed the economy. The US and the world slid into a major recession. Times were tough; people were looking for work, and Rick was in demand.
