EXECUTIVE/C-LEVEL CANDIDATES

"I have hired Joe over the years to support me with my career questions, including for coaching, resumes and strategy. Joe is truly exceptional and gets results, plus he is affordable and completes high quality work quickly. I consider myself a talented and gifted writer and marketer, but as many of us can attest, it can be very hard to write a resume or cover letter or LinkedIn profile about ourselves and our careers. Joe's experience working directly with a lot of senior level leaders in tech and having been a hiring manager himself before he started his business, he knows what it takes to persuade on paper and during interviews. He has a really unique ability to focus on what's critical to stand out from the competition. Thanks as always Joe!" – KS (Silicon Valley executive)  

"I've reviewed the resume and think it looks great. I did make a few minor tweaks for clarity and accuracy but overall I think it's in a good place." – PW (tech executive)

CANDIDATES OVER THE AGE OF 50 

"As someone that was transitioning into a new career in her 50s, you can imagine how scary this felt. Joe helped me so much, from improving my resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile to giving me simple, but great interviewing advice as well as how to connect with recruiters and staffing agencies and let them know about my unique skills and experience. Joe's attention to detail was also very impressive. He sees things the average job seeker doesn't in terms of how to market and sell themselves. That outside perspective was invaluable to me. I honestly don't know where I would be without his services." – TM  

“Being 50+, last time I worked was over 10 years ago. He explained how I could overcome obstacles and provided potential entry points to secure employment in different industries. His advice to pursue an LVN Certificate was the right path. Joe, my greatest appreciation!” – CM

LONG-TERM UNEMPLOYED 

“I just want to say that I believed it was YOUR version of my resume and cover letter, Joe C, that got me the job...those were the docs they had in front of them at the time of the interview. Brief resume, but to the point; brief letter of interest, but to the point.” – AM (previously was long-term unemployed for more than five years)   

IMMIGRANTS AND NEWCOMERS TO THE U.S.

"I had been out of work for more than two-and-a-half years. I was a practicing dentist in Mexico but had to start all over and take exams to become a licensed dentist in California. I heard about Joe's service from a friend of mine. Once I got my dental license, I knew I needed a resume to apply to jobs. Joe wrote my resume, cover letter and thank you letter and I applied to 10 employers. I got several interviews. Within 30 days of hiring Joe, I had accepted a job offer and was working as a dentist in California. Thank you Joe!! You are great at what you do!!" – TP (emigrated from Mexico)

“Thank you Joe! You are a magician! I love it!” – MG (emigrated from Israel) 

“Hi Joe, I just want to thank you for helping me create a new resume and cover letter. I really obtained better interviews, and interviews were with more serious and important companies. I landed a job last week.” – OG (emigrated from Mexico)

“I came to San Diego six months ago from overseas on a work visa and was getting very depressed. I recently got a job and the hiring manager said my resume stood out among the other applicants.” – SR (emigrated from Pakistan)

“Hi Joe, the past three weeks I got more than six interviews. The good news is that I started a new job. Joe, it is so great to wake up every morning and to go to work with a smile, GOD BLESS YOU.” – SL  (emigrated from Israel)
