Testimonials

I've been working with Coach Chandra for approximately six weeks. All my status has improved. I've had three first-tier interviews, one second-tier interview, and one job offer since hiring her and affording her reasonable hourly rate. Her approach during the mock interview has helped me to focus more on bridging my skills with the duties of the desired position. Coach Chandra has broken down the science of interviewing and related job search components. Now, I am more confident I will land the right career opportunity very soon. Thanks, Chandra!    Regina B.

I was able to commence my job search with confidence sooner than expected. Prior to seeking help, I was averaging 25 LinkedIn searches per week. Now I am averaging 85 people a week looking at my profile and there was one week where 186 people looked at my profile. Her cheerful and heart-full approach to the daily routine is a perfect complement to her collaborative style. I was always anxious to review each iteration of progress and move onto the next. She was always in complete control of where we were, where we were going and how we were going to get there. With full confidence I can attest that Chandra will apply the utmost attention and integrity in all aspects of your career coaching needs.   J.A.

I always think of Ms. Russell when I look back and see how my career began to take off. Ms. Russell is a great motivator, but not by words alone, it's her actions and concern for people and their success. Ms. Russell is a great career adviser and life coach. I was unsure of what I wanted to do, how to prepare for what I was trying to do and unaware of what actually was my true passion; I spoke to Ms. Russell, she helped me focus, plan for the now, which set a path for where I am today

Chandra was terrific in helping me revise and update my resume. Chandra's services were very helpful in making edits to my resume and she was very helpful in updating the resume better than I ever could have on my own. Chandra is a very positive person and was a delight to work with and had valuable coaching advice as well.

Chandra helped me ace an interview by helping me articulate my value and communicate my skills.

Chandra effectively transformed my outdated resume into one that gets noticed by HR professionals and gets me in the door for an interview. She is very skilled in this and does so with tact and professionalism. I've already referred her to several other people.
