Everett Stephens Testimonials

Prior to working with you, I spent over 8 months unsuccessfully looking for a new position. Your hard work and direction helped me to be successful in less than half the time. I have an excellent new position with a great opportunity for growth. Your support, direction, and assistance made it all happen.

In addition to landing a fantastic job with great benefits, which was my original goal, I have expanded my contacts tremendously. I've reached out to work with other companies, including in finding leads, providing leads for them, and talking to managers with potential openings.

Happily, I can report that I accepted an offer that was the perfect fit. The company was not looking to hire, but created a position to fit my background, skills, and ability. The transition included a 22% salary increase.

I learned how to turn my resume into a document that grabs the attention of hiring executives rather than just list repetitive tasks ranked by job title. Also through developing my resume, I gained a deeper understanding of my work, which also gave me great confidence in my skills. In addition to my resume, I began tapping old and new networks and managing the overall job search. Another crucial area that I received help in was with negotiating the job offer. In fact, I negotiated for nearly $10K more than the initial offer.

Your approach is incredible. Your professional experience and expertise made me feel truly customized in the best possible way. Knowing you were in my corner made all the difference in my success.

I want to personally thank each of you for the encouragement and the support you provided me along the way. It is now my pleasure to share some very exciting news with you. I have been afforded a magnificent opportunity which allows me to utilize both my industry experience and my formal education to help with the startup of a new pharmaceutical company. It is a very busy but exciting time.

Because of your help, I received a number of job offers. I selected a company which seems to be a perfect fit for me in culture and responsibility. Very exciting stuff. There is excellent career path potential. The financial package affords me a substantial raise (about 50% over my current salary), options, an increased bonus potential over my current level (30%) and car allowance. I am very happy with the offer and excited about the opportunity.

Suddenly, my long career coma is over, and a new life begins! THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE! YOUR HUMOR, SUPPORT, WISDOM, AND PROFESSIONAL LEADS HAVE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN MY SEARCH TO REDEFINE MY CAREER. I realize that we still have work to do, and I look forward to continuing...and celebrating!

I have recently accepted a position that really meets my goals. I do not believe that I would have been tendered this offer, were it not for my participation with you. Thanks for helping me to raise the bar.

Through working with you, I learned how to frame my skill sets and communicate them to anyone who was willing to meet with me. Shortly thereafter, I was offered the role of Global Director of Marketing. While I have no doubt that the ability to accomplish that which I have accomplished was resident within me, your coaching and unique insights assisted in bring the ability out.

The process has enabled me to articulate my value to organizations through the identification of key successes and clarity of thought and purpose. This was carried over into an attractive resume and interview skills that opened up doors that previously seemed closed. I entered the program a frazzled, stumbling and fumbling interview phobic individual and left with a new sense of confidence. This experience and information will be something that I can pull from for the rest of my career.

"I would do this job for free!" Amazingly, that is something that my mother used to tell me all the time... "The type of job that you want is one that you would do for free... that will give you the most incredible satisfaction." I am thrilled that I got "the job I wanted." We INVENTED an opportunity! I couldn't be happier with the service you provided.
