Blog Post: If you are still sitting on the fence...make a move to Transitions!


posted Tuesday, November 3, 2009 9:22 AM

There are still some slots available for the next Transitions series starting on November 9th. 

To intice you, here are some comments from past participants:

"This is the best $40 investment I've ever made."

" I really enjoyed your workshop and will definitely recommend it to anyone needing a new career. For me your workshop was a little therapy, it was nice to talk to other people in mine or similar situations. I felt I could speak freely that was a definite help."

"Enjoyed your work shop and appreciated all your input.  Of particular interest to me was the 'keywords' to address in an ad and to fine tune a resume for a specific position.  You gave a lot of great info and your interest, encourangement and support was evident!"

"The best thing for me was your commentary on my resume and cover letter.  Thank you so very much."

"Your input is invaluable.  I would not have been as prepared as I am without your help.  You are an inspiration, and actually have me believing that I am the right person for this job, and that my dreams are achievable.  You have made me realize that I have settled and have not pushed myself to get what I want.  This process has shown me that I still have something to offer an employer and still can make a difference.  This has been very good for.  With your help I have confidence and hope.  Haven’t had either one for a long time, and it is a good feeling that stays with me throughout my day."

"This is worth repeating, you are inspiring, and that you are doing what you are here to do.  That you care about people and want to help them achieve their dreams is as obvious as the rising and setting of the sun.  So thank you for being who you are and expressing that in the world. "

So...let me help you...

Transitions
