Testimonials

It's been a long and exciting career. I've had the honor to work with many good people and in return, some have said some good things about me. For a complete list of testimonials, I encourage you to check out my profile on LinkedIn.com. Here are just a few recommendations from my profile:

“Kevin Panet has volunteered to speak at our People Between Jobs Club in Porter Ranch on several occasions, sharing his knowledge, insights and enthusiasm. At our last meeting, 57 people attended (normally average about 40 to 45 attendees). Each time Kevin presented valuable information to help those in transition to focus their job search, as well as practical tools to find gainful employment. Several people said they had seen him speak before at our club or other venues and wanted to hear him present again. Kevin did an outstanding job keeping the participants engaged throughout his presentation, effectively responding to all questions, encouraging interactive discussion, and he made sure that everyone was treated with professionalism and respect. If you are looking to hire a highly energetic, knowledgeable, and dedicated Human Resources professional, then you want Kevin on your team.” August 15, 2010

“If you have never had the pleasure of being trained by Kevin, you are missing out! He is funny, entertaining and brings new and interesting facts to the table that you can turn around and use right away in your business. Not only is he a professional when it comes to Human Resources, he himself is a resource! With Kevin's experience combined with his warm personality, he is the "go to" guy for all of your insurance needs. He works harder than anyone I know!” August 7, 2008

“I write recommending Kevin Panet for any role for which he feels he is qualified. While I served as VP-Training and Development at WMC Mortgage, Kevin ably served as an Instructor and Course Designer. He was respected by senior-most leadership at WMC, as well as Sales leaders and newly-hired employees, hundreds of which Kevin mentored through a lengthy learning and development bootcamp. Kevin cares about the roles he accepts and fully invests all his talents in exceeding expectations of his customers, his peers, his learners, and his leadership. I respect and admire Kevin.

“As a Divisional Sales Manager, I worked with Kevin on training material for our Business Development Associates. Kevin was the project leader, and I assisted with the review before rollout, and the implementation to the associates. Kevin was always detailed with his material, and spot on with the content. Kevin always hit his deadlines, and was always looking to improve the material. He is a very detailed oriented individual, and does not make assumptions without first finding out all of the facts.” May 21, 2008
David Rose, Vice President, Divisional Sales Manager, GE Money Bank / WMC Mortgage

“It was a pleasure to observe Kevin's dedication and focus as he took trainees, often new to the mortgage business, and lead them along the path to becoming best prepared to contribute as employees. I observed a high-energy leader who was willing and able to do what was required to customize his training material to best suit the current group of trainees. Kevin's enthusiasm and skill resulted in a high quality (of) graduates, ready to work in an effective manner. He was dedicated to customer service, going above and beyond the normal work day to ensure trainees were excited and delighted with their training programs, making it as realistic as possible, building training materials from scratch when required and drawing upon the expertise of subject matter experts when necessary. Kevin was energetic stand-up trainer, able to keep classes on track and moving forward.” April 24, 2008
James Walker, Executive VP, CIO, CTO, WMC Mortgage

“I worked closely with Kevin while he was in the trainer role at WMC. Kevin consistently provided professional and pertinent training to our sales team. Kevin was very enthusiastic and energized in his training sessions and was able to maintain the interest of his participants. Kevin's training program was thorough and helped our Account Executives enter the sales force with the background needed to make them successful. Kevin's energy, professionalism, and enthusiasm was contagious. Kevin was well respected and admired for the important function he served in our Training Department. Kevin always conducted himself in a professional manner, he is a very accomplished communicator, and also delivered what was promised. I would highly recommend Kevin to any company.” April 19, 2008
Mark Jackman, Regional Vice President, GE Money, WMC Mortgage

“During my time at Blue Cross, I needed Kevin’s help on several occasions. He always treated me with dignity and respect, no matter what happened. He worked over time to make sure I understood everything that was happening. I’m not sure what I would have done if Kevin hadn’t been there to help me. I felt that he really listened to me and handled everything in a caring and professional manner.” February 8, 2009
