So, I originally wrote this review almost four months ago. Julie LaCroix saw the review and…read moreresponded to it. However, did she do anything to make sure she answered the main element of the complaint (that she won't stop spamming me in spite of numerous requests over the years - including those apparently only decorative "unsubscribe" links in her emails?). No. Screen shot for proof. Draw what conclusions you will. Original Review and Comment on Response: I had two appointments with Julie LaCroix several years ago. I ultimately thought the sessions were a waste of time and (quite a lot of) money. She decided my skill set made me a particularly good fit for a specific type of job, and she disregarded my repeated protests that the job in question went against my moral values. She made up her mind and was incapable of hearing anything that didn't align with her first (somewhat arbitrary seeming) idea. She ended our last session by throwing together a ridiculous, typo-ridden resume in a couple minutes targeted at a position I had made clear I would not apply for. (Since that time I finished my graduate degree and am working in a suitable career.) After our second meeting, I was ready to move on and not give career therapists another thought. I have not had that luxury, however, since Julie LaCroix has spammed me and stalked me on social media ever since. Every couple years, I get re-added to her email list which I have never given her permission to put me on, and she has not responded to messages asking her to desist. She also periodically tries to connect with me on social media (she is undeterred by my refusal to connect with her, and, again, does not respond to messages asking her to desist in contacting me). I understand that she thinks networking will help grow her business. I don't understand why she thinks harassing people and ignoring them when they object would be beneficial to anyone. Given her systematic abuse of my personal information, however, I am no longer surprised that she could not process my objection to an unethical career. **Regarding Response** Notice the non-denial regarding the abusive email practices I describe. Also note the absence of a statement that she would address this matter and make sure I am not re-added to her list again in the future. The rest is a matter of he-said-she-said, but why, after 11 years, would I have reason to think of her--much less make random false claims in a review? I would encourage her to check her email (julie@julielacroix.com) to see that I have, in fact, contacted her multiple time over the past 11 years to ask that she stop re-adding me to her spam list. She has also found me years after using her (dis)services and tried to get me to engage with her professional profiles on Facebook and Instagram over the years. The dishonesty/lack of integrity in her response here is appalling.

Hi Juliet- I just…read morewanted to thank you again for all your hard work, understanding, and helpful advice that you have blessed me with during our time working together. I landed a position with one of the city government roles I was targeting here in Orange county! This role has been a great fit for me, and I enjoy and respect the other people I work with, and the people in the community that we serve. I had several offers after our work together and ultimately decided this one was the best fit for me. The work you did with my personality profile, career goals, and resume was extremely helpful and definitely had a lot to do with the number of offers I received. I also performed very well in my interviews not just because of my experience in this field but also because of practicing the questions and hypotheticals we went over together. You are a master of your craft and I will not hesitate to mention you if I have any other contacts who are looking for resume and or career coach professionals with your skill set.

That's when I decided to seek help and was soon recommended to Juliet. Juliet was incredibly helpful, working with me each week to ensure my resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letters were in top shape. She even pointed out things I hadn't considered including on my resume that turned out to be valuable. When it came to interviews, Juliet walked me through the most common questions, offering constructive critiques on what I should and shouldn't say for each one. Her advice was super informative and helped me feel far more confident than before heading into interviews. I really appreciated how she pushed me out of my comfort zone, and noticed how her help made me stand out more to employers. Many of them even complimented how well-written my resume was! I'm super happy to say that I accepted my first job out of college a couple of months ago, and can't thank Juliet enough for her guidance and great advice!

I made my appointment in mid-March to crunch the numbers in preparation for retirement and was…read morequite happy with the assistance offered. My retirement specialist ran through several potential retirement dates to ensure I could receive my maximum benefit at the earliest possible time, which I had assumed would have been a month later. This she had prepared in advance along with additional information in the event I elected to postpone retiring for another year ("No way!" :D). She was both pleasant and knowledgeable on the various options dealing with the finer points of retirement paperwork (mostly spousal percentage options and beneficiary stuff). She also ensured all information was up-to-date; after all, much of the original information (residence, phone number, etc.) on my paperwork was from almost three decades ago when I started in the profession. The CalSTRS office is on the second floor of a large building near downtown Riverside next to the 91 Freeway but, thankfully, not in the heart of downtown. It contains ample underground parking and, though parking fees are posted as you enter the structure, parking for those visiting the CalSTRS office is validated at the reception desk - another appreciated money-saver. The office lobby also has a small "work" area off to the side so those desiring to complete/amend the various forms necessary for submission don't need to return with completed paperwork at a later time. (You will need to submit several forms for processing in Sacramento). Since I was traveling from L.A. County, this was extremely useful in allowing me to avoid an extra trip while feeling more comfortable with a hand-to-hand submission of most of my forms (in place of sending paperwork directly up north through the mail). The receptionist who took my completed paperwork who is also a retirement specialist - they share "lobby duties" - made sure all was in order and fully completed to avert having anything "kicked back" for lack of checked boxes, incomplete information, or missing signatures. (I did have a few). What can I say? The entire process was stress free and relatively quick. If you're ready to retire, schedule your own appointment and go see them; retirement awaits! Thanks to all the Riverside CalSTRS staff for their assistance!
