I'm very happy to have connected with Greg. My present full-time employment was due to his effort, and the experience of interviewing with him was effortless. Greg is an excellent listener and seems to be able to make his job matches intuitively, having allowed his job seeker to be very comfortable in sharing their story. In my opinion it was a lucky day when our paths crossed!

Greg is a part of a rare breed of recruiters. He's a true partner. He takes the time to get to know the company, the culture, the people, the candidate and most importantly, the rules of engagement. Greg always puts relationship first and becuase of that I can always trust that he has the client's best interests in mind.

I recommend Greg highly for any company that wants the most professional service a recruiter can provide. Greg not only has excellent organizational skills, interpersonal skills and work ethic but is especially effective at understanding the needs of the client and leverages his industry knowledge to best meet those needs by finding the right “fit” of talent, personality and desire. Greg enhances the careers of individuals by giving them the opportunity to advance personally as well as to further utilize their talents within growing organizations.

Greg is one of the most thorough people that I've ever had the opportunity to work with. His work ethic and drive to help people find better jobs, to improve their careers, and their lives is exemplary. QA, QC, Scientist and R&D professionals in the pharmaceutical industry should contact Greg as their first source to advance their career.

Mr. Greg Austin is an excellent person who found me the great job at Biolex. He is smart, intelligent and persistent in getting things done. He worked constantly almost three months on my case. Mr. Austin did not drop me even when at the first round the hiring company did not prefer me. He convinced the hiring company to give me a chance of the personal interview. He helped me to be successful in the interview and also negotiated with the company to get me good benefits after the selection.
He is courteous and cooperative. Above all he is a wonderful decent person to whom one can talk freely with complete trust.

Gregory Austin, Corporate Recruiting Consulting/Interview Coaching answered:

As a recovering people-pleaser I can understand to an extent where you are coming from. The fact is, no matter how skilled/talented you are, you will not please all the people all of the time.

First, review your job description and match it against your skills/experience. If they match really closely or exactly, then you should feel confident that you have the capability, no problem. What seem to be happening is you doubt yourself and the anxiety field you create around you probably makes coworkers uncomfortable. If you can do the job, you can do the job, you don't have to prove anything.

I have several suggestions to help you. First, continue to use positive self talk and reassure yourself as often as possible that you are good, worthy, skilled and competent. Do this especially during times of stress/anxiety.

Also, Jack Canfield has a great audio program on this. (
How to Build High Self-Esteem: A Practical Process for Your Personal Growth Audio, Cassette – Audiobook, Unabridged) He is an expert in self-esteem improvement and the tapes are very inexpensive online (~$4) or free at your local library.

Finally, I recommend a spiritual practice to help you. I'm not trying to preach at all, but my personal testimony is that God has graced me with a lot of help to overcome my personal and personality problems that have caused me much difficulty. I've had a lot of help from spiritual mentors to keep me on the path and accountable.

If you want to know more or if there is anything I can do, please let me know.
