 I got an offer from UBS Wealth Management and CGI, an IT Consulting firm….Thanks again for your help with interviews and case studies in the workshops, they were very valuable. - Barnard College, class of 2008

 

I really owe my first job out of college to Caroline. She took the time to sit down with me and really understand my strengths and weaknesses and how those can be turned into an asset within the company. Using her knowledge of the different positions available, she found a position that was a perfect fit for my skills and interests.  - NYU, class of 2005

Connie was a tremendous help to me in my search to secure a better paying & more rewarding job.  She helped me with my resume preparation and helped me to brush up on my interview skills.  She also helped me to negotiate the offer….I was hoping for a 7 - 10% salary increase.  Connie gave me the tools necessary to not only make this transition but to increase my salary by 25%!  -  Citigroup new hire

You were very helpful in making me feel more confident for the interview.  You helped me develop my responses so that I had an answer for any possible question thrown at me during the interview.  In previous interviews, I was always very hesitant after a question was asked.  I needed to take time to think of an answer.  After speaking with you, my interview with Ernst & Young went very smoothly and I had great answers for everything asked.  Without your help I do not think I could have received the Ernst & Young offer. – Tulane, class of 2008
