Elizabeth Lions studied psychology at the University of Maine. She started her career as a prominent headhunter on the west coast. Little did she know that job was her boot camp and the beginning of what would be today. An accomplished author, Elizabeth wrote, ‘Recession Proof Yourself’ during the throes of recession in 2009. It was written to assist the 15 million Americans that lost their job during the great recession. Apparently, it struck a chord with readers. In 2012, Elizabeth released, ‘I Quit! Working For You Isn’t Working For Me’ She calls it her book for the survivors of recession and it is perfect for those in a confidential job search. Elizabeth Lions has been quoted in Hot Jobs, The Ladders, and Dice job boards.
