What Clients Are Saying
“I worked with Chris recently to help me with a job application package, including updating my resume so that it is successful for AI screeners, and creating my cover letter, utilizing his proprietary AI-enhanced process, and he worked wonders! My resume looks amazing and created a customized letter that highlighted my exact skills and experience needed for the job. Normally, the painstaking process of writing a cover letter takes me hours and his process saved me significant time and energy. Best of all, I got an interview request the day after I applied for the job!” — Client
“I worked with Chris recently and it was an excellent experience. He is compassionate, insightful and easy to talk to. He helped me gain clarity on an issue I’ve been struggling with and I left with a concrete action plan that feels do-able. I feel like I was heard and supported throughout the process. I will continue to work with him.” — L.
“I reached out to Chris with a short deadline to create a resume. He responded with positivity and patience as he navigated me through a fact finding mission of my past 40 years spanning three careers. I was very impressed with his skill, his knowledge, his attention to detail and his ability to listen below the layers of our conversations. In one week’s time he turned what felt overwhelming to me into a well thought out professional resume that I was proud of. I would enthusiastically endorse Chris if you are looking for a partner to navigate the nuances of resume construction!” — Donna Krone, PCC, CPCC
