I had the delightful experience to speak to a 'Head Hunter' from Helio about 2 years ago at a SuperBowl party. I told her, and most people that I knew that Helio was in serious trouble if that was the person they had hiring for Helio.
A corporate know nothing. Hey, Helio, how about hiring some people that have sold cellular phones or have been in the business for more than 1 day.
Amazing the way these companies are so bloated with people that stroke each others egos and have never sold, or it seems, even used a cell phone.
I've been in this industry for 20 years, had cell phone stores in the US & Mexico, distributed a couple million phones, had a paging company, seen the industry go from 35 pound transportables and Oki being the leader to today. She looked down on anyone in the business that did not have an MBA.
Too bad for Helio, Amp'd and others that non-corporations buy phones too.
There is a lot of talent out there, lots of guys who have been in this business for years and they are overlooked by theses bozos.

Helio will be gone in 12 months.
Get a clue.
