How Browning Associates came to be

John’s idea to start an employment service, originally called The Data Processing Connection (later renamed Diversified Personnel Consultants ), stemmed from his unforgettable experience as a recent college graduate struggling to find post-graduation employment. At the time, John quickly learned that neither employment agencies nor most employers valued his college degree. Time and time again, he was told that to be considered for a job, he needed “real-world experience.” After months of job searching, John finally landed his first professional position in data processing, a field he would go on to work in for six years. Eventually, he was promoted to management, and, to his surprise, found himself in the awkward position of having to turn away college graduates—just like himself—because they lacked practical work experience. These experiences of frustration and rejection ultimately inspired John to create an employment service focused on helping college graduates find their first job...

I call these people Thank God its Fridayers or TGIFers. These people wish their lives away, working for the weekend or through the weekend. Either way, they all agree, this is no way to live. Early in my career, I met with a middle-aged professional (I'll call him Jim) who told me he would depress the snooze button on his alarm clock five times before getting out of bed on Monday morning. Jim also explained that he would rise from bed s...
