MOVING YOU FORWARD

 I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Michelle through most of 2018 as I pursued new career opportunities. Michelle came highly recommended by several colleagues and after meeting with her I understood why. I found Michelle's feedback consistently honest and on point; strategy sessions were always productive with both near-term and long-term/big picture items in focus, including 'homework'. Furthermore and importantly, Michelle went above and beyond my expectations in her time and flexibility to speak and meet with me within my schedule as well as truly partnering with me in my job search and supporting me through the various stages of interviews and job offers.

 I came to Michelle because I was frustrated. Frustrated at the non answers and rejection letters from employees while knowing I had amassed a distinguished portfolio of experiences. Michelle instantly exuded confidence during our one to one video chat. Meeting with Michelle was more than expected. She didn’t ask just the typical questions one could expect crafting an resume, but she asked about life. She played a bit of life coach, perking me up when I questioned certain decisions in my past and reminding me of the unique pathway I’ve created toward my future. I recommend anyone looking to brighten their prospects sit with Michelle and trust her vision. The resume she crafted is amazing, the only problem is believing I am the remarkable person on the piece of paper she finalized.

 Michelle is an insightful, client-centered advisor. Her keen analytical skills about how people thrive (or not so much) in their careers allowed her to guide my mid-career explorations to greater efficiency and purpose. I cannot recommend her more highly.

 Michelle is a creative thinker who offers an approach to career coaching that is thorough and well-defined. She provides her clients trust and comfort while demonstrating true professionalism and knowledge of many unique industries. There was frequent communication throughout the entire process to ensure that my questions were answered and goals were met.

 With a long career in the same field I, like many other people had compiled a resume that was nothing more that just a list of jobs lacking the necessary details to show what new employers would get out of working with me. Additionally, in this day and age of electronic screening and networking, Michelle was integral in helping me focus on which of my accomplishments would be of greater interest to potential employers. Not only did her assistance allow me to create a quality working product, but her advice helped me understand how better to use the networking sites to get out in the field.

 Michelle exceeded my expectations in all facets of career building. She showed skill and dexterity navigating the complexities of a closed industry. She also displayed patience personalizing the process. I found her style direct, informative and constructive. I benefited greatly from her direction and plan on securing her services again as needed in the future.

 Michelle knows what she is talking about when it comes to job readiness and how to present yourself in a professional manner. She met with me a number of times to work on interview skills, resume writing and how to become a professional young person in the work world. She was able to connect me with the right people in order to find a job that was a great fit for me. I would highly recommend her to any of my peers. She is a wonderful asset to our generation.

 I know that the resume Michelle Halloran crafted for me got me interviews. I have even been told it was one of the best resumes they had ever read. I also believe that my resume got me that first interview, that landed me my great new job. I highly recommend Michelle.
