“Shauna, you’ve been absolutely amazing. I’m just giddy right now. You are very, VERY talented. I’m very impressed by what you’ve done in just an hour. There’s so much more texture to my résumé. Texture... that’s the only word I can think of to describe it. I’m finally coming across as an individual. I cannot wait to work on my cover letter!“

Read More“This much a better plan than what I had before! When I talked to Career Services, they basically told me there was nothing I could do to look for a job while I wait for the bar exam results. But you’ve already outlined a lot of logical things I could be doing to be a better candidate and look for a job. And that makes so much more sense to me, because doing nothing but sitting around makes *no* sense.”
