I’m kicking myself
“I’m kicking myself because I feel like this is something I should have done a long time ago. I just get such anxiety thinking about my résumé and looking for a job. It’s so helpful to finally get this done. Just talking through all this has been helpful. Even the way you’ve set the résumé and cover letter up, and the way you’re describing what I’ve done, it’s just something I would never have thought of. Thank you so much.”
- Associate Attorney General
I just can’t write my own résumé
“Thank you so much! I really needed this. Obviously. It’s funny how I can write a contract, but I just can’t write my own résumé.”
- Senior commercial contracts in-house counsel at Fortune 50
perfect sense
“This makes perfect sense, but it’s not necessarily intuitive. It really requires me to step back and really think about how do I make myself attractive to other employers. There’s legwork, but it’s not as daunting as I thought. Before this call, I was going in five different directions trying to figure out what the next step was.”
- Senior employment counsel
