In what industries do you help clients for Resume and LinkedIn support?
My clients come from a diverse range of sectors, and the majority look to make big career pivots. While I have experience across many sectors, I have worked with clients pursuing opportunities in: consulting, energy, engineering, finance, law, operations, tech and more! Regardless of industry, my expertise lies in helping you articulate your unique value proposition for your dream opportunities
How far in advance should I start my MBA or college applications?
It all depends on your answer to these two questions: 1) How long will it take me to get the test scores needed for my dream program? 2) How long do I need to brainstorm, craft, and edit really compelling application essays? My recommendation is to first focus on the test scores before starting your essays. Then, you can give yourself all the creative time and energy to focus on your essays without a test date looming overhead. When I was going through the MBA application process I gave myself one year. Testing was never my strong suit so I gave myself the majority of the year to study, and re-take tests as needed to improve my scores. Then, I had about 4 months to really focus on writing the best possible essays, get feedback, and make LOTS of edits. Whatever you do, don’t rush the process!
