Invaluable Career Coaching
“With Mark’s help, I was able to upgrade my résumé, refocus my job search and polish my interviewing skills. Instead of wasting of time going on “practice” interviews for jobs I didn’t want, I have focused on positions I am truly interested in. Before I met with Mark I sent out 0ver 50 resumes. After meeting with Mark I sent out 5 resumes and got three interviews and two job offers”
