I am incredibly grateful for my experience with Executive Career Partners and the support they provided during one of the more uncertain seasons of my career. For much of my professional life, my next opportunity came through leaders I knew and trusted who recruited me directly. After being impacted by a layoff, I found myself in a very different place. I wanted to explore new industries, but I was entering a market filled with economic uncertainty and hiring hesitation. At first, I thought I was doing the right things but the effort was proving minimal results. Looking back, I am so glad I invested in Executive Career Partners. They helped me strengthen my resume, improve my LinkedIn profile, create a professional website, prepare my career accomplishment stories, and communicate my value with much more confidence. One of the most valuable parts of the program was access to ECP's exclusive tools and Business Intelligence resources. The insights into companies, industries, decision-makers, and potential connections were unmatched. These tools helped me move beyond simply applying online and become much more intentional, targeted, and strategic in my search. My career strategist, Ramsey Penegar, was outstanding. She helped me go from being an inactive LinkedIn user with little networking strategy to becoming confident, consistent, and intentional on the platform. With her guidance, I learned how to build relationships, expand my network, strengthen my personal brand, and use LinkedIn and other tools in a way that felt both professional and authentic. Ramsey brought energy when I needed momentum, patience when I was learning something new, and encouragement when the search felt difficult. I always felt she was genuinely invested in my success. I highly recommend Executive Career Partners to any executive navigating a career transition. It was absolutely worth the investment, and I now have tools, confidence, and a strategy I will carry with me throughout my NEW career & career journey... read more

I was contacted by Executive Career Partners (ECP) after they reviewed my background and believed their services might align well with my experience and career goals. The process began with me submitting my resume and completing a comprehensive "marketability profile," where I outlined my work history, current situation, job-search concerns, and future objectives. After an initial consultation to discuss my background and learn more about ECP's offerings, they provided a clear plan detailing support, which moved quickly into action. They immediately helped upgrade my resume and worked with me to document compelling stories of key accomplishments from each of my previous roles--an exercise that proved invaluable for interview preparation. I was also given access to two robust online platforms that offered training on every aspect of the job-search process, along with recruiter lists, job boards, and a resume-customization app. The system allowed me to tailor my resume for specific roles and track all applications and their progress in one place. The breadth of resources was impressive--so much so that I wasn't even able to take advantage of everything available. I met regularly with a dedicated career strategist who provided practical guidance, interview preparation, and negotiation support. The structured approach, accountability, and personalized coaching made a significant difference in both my confidence and effectiveness throughout the search. I am pleased to share that 86 days after ECP first contacted me, I had a final, successfully negotiated offer of employment. This timeframe was likely longer than average, as my search began at the end of the year. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with the services I received and would highly recommend ECP to professionals seeking a comprehensive, strategic, and results-oriented approach to their job search. read more

I started speaking to ECP just before the pandemic started and wasn't sure if using a service like this was worth the price. After the world shutdown, I decided I could probably use all the help I could get, and get it before the market got flooded with new job seekers. In my case, their fee was half of my former monthly salary (which I was losing the longer I was unemployed), so I thought it was a wise investment. I liked the new resume format they presented me and we kept refining it over time. They send targeted emails to recruiters and VCs on my behalf and provided full contact info so I could follow up on my own. They also provide assistance with LinkedIn and other external job search sites. I had been laid-off before so I was already pretty savvy with how the job search works, but it is always valuable to get different ideas, strategies and perspectives. The most valuable part of the service is working with your Career Strategist. Sheri Bender was great to work with and always available. She is knowledgeable and friendly but takes you to task which I greatly appreciated. She is an excellent motivator and provided clear advice. She turned around information quickly, helped during the interview process and salary negotiations. You always hope when you invest in a service like this that they will provide the "silver bullet" and you will find employment almost immediately. There is no "silver bullet" and alot of finding the right role is timing and luck; it also takes organization and perseverance. Having a partner like Sheri & ECP kept me moving forward. I was unemployed almost a year and found the exact role and salary I was looking for so I am very satisfied with my investment in ECP. read more

I had an outstanding experience with Executive Career Partners, and a huge part of that was working with Marilyn as my career strategist. Marilyn is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely invested in her clients' success. She took the time to understand my background, career goals, and strengths, then helped me develop a clear strategy to position myself for executive-level opportunities. Her feedback was thoughtful, practical, and always tailored to my situation. What made the biggest difference was that Marilyn challenged me to think beyond the traditional job search. She encouraged me to think outside the box, recognize the value of my experience, and explore opportunities I hadn't previously considered. Those conversations inspired me to start developing my own e-learning business, something I likely would not have pursued without her guidance and encouragement. Throughout the process, she also helped me with executive branding, LinkedIn optimization, resume improvements, interview preparation, and networking strategies. She was responsive, encouraging, and kept me focused and accountable every step of the way. Executive Career Partners provides excellent resources, but Marilyn's expertise, insight, and genuine commitment made the experience truly exceptional. I feel much more confident in my career direction--not only as an executive seeking new opportunities, but also as an entrepreneur building something of my own. I highly recommend Executive Career Partners, and if you have the opportunity to work with Marilyn, you'll be in excellent hands. Thank you, Marilyn, for believing in my potential and inspiring me to think bigger than I ever imagined. read more

When I first signed up with ECP, I did not know what to expect from this service. What was pressing is that I needed to find my next role. While I recognized the job market is different than it has been in years, I tried researching companies, referrals, resume customization which was very time constraining. Finally, after five months of no success, I recognized a change was required, because what I was doing was not working. I was referred to ECP, where I met Tasha Blaze, a Career Strategist at ECP Careers. Working with Tasha has been an incredibly impactful experience. From our initial meeting, Tasha provided an atmosphere that was both encouraging and insightful. She asked the right questions in a consultative manner, challenged me to think differently, which helped me shift my approach, especially around how I present myself on my resume, which is all about marketing myself. One of the most transformative parts of our work together was how Tasha guided me to be more open to change. I had been holding on to a standard resume format, but with her expert guidance and encouragement, I adopted a fresh, more strategic approach that truly reflects my value and accomplishments. That change alone inspired greater confidence and engagement in my job search. Tasha brings an exceptional mix of strategy, empathy, and prior client success experience. She does not offer standard advice, but she customizes each session to your specific goals, and you can tell she sincerely cares about your success. If you are looking for a career strategist who will help you grow, challenge your perspective, and guide you to success, I wholeheartedly recommend Tasha Blaze at ECP Careers. read more

Working with Executive Career Partners was one of the best decisions I made in my career journey, and I cannot speak highly enough about Chris Scott, who was my direct partner throughout the process. From our very first conversation, Chris brought a mix of strategic clarity, calm confidence, and genuine care that immediately made me feel supported and empowered. His expertise in branding, storytelling, and job market strategy helped me refine my professional narrative and present myself in a way that truly resonated with the roles I was targeting. Chris didn't just give me generic advice; he built a personalized plan that aligned with my goals, strengths, and values. His insights into the job market were sharp, his resume and LinkedIn guidance were on point, and his coaching helped me walk into every interview prepared and confident. What stood out most was the level of partnership Chris offered. He was always accessible, responsive, and encouraging. He celebrated the wins and helped me stay focused during the tough moments. I never felt like I was navigating this transition alone. Thanks to Chris and the team at Executive Career Partners, I landed an incredible opportunity that not only fits my experience but excites me for the future. I'm deeply grateful for the guidance and highly recommend Chris to anyone serious about making a career move with confidence and clarity. - 5 STARS!!!! - read more

Have you ever received that LinkIn in-mail message that sounds like someone is trying to sell you services, while your profile clearly states you are out of a job? Well, not every one of those messages should be ignored. When Patrick from ECP randomly sent me an in-mail, I decided to take the chance to chat with him, if for no other reason than to listen to his sales pitch (given I had so much free time on my hands). I'm glad I did. There is so much to conducting a job search - especially in a hard market. I would go so far as to say that searching for a job, creating the necessary assets, positioning yourself, and interviewing are skills you need to build - a muscle you need to strengthen. But if you are like me, those muscles have rarely been used, let alone strengthened. I took the change, and hired ECP. My career coach Mary kicked me into high-gear. The first 30 days felt like I had a full time job - preparing documents, being "interviewed" by her - all to solidify my search strategies, assets, and stories to kick off my venture. ECP will not find you a job (that is your responsibility). But what they will do is help you prepare your strategies, create the necessary assets, and teach you how to rise above your competition. If you invest in their guidance, you will produce results. read more

Executive Career Partners is worth the investment!!!!! At first, I was skeptical of ECP's services, particularly their recommendation that I have a single page "Multi-Purpose" resume, although I had over 20 years of work experience. However, once this new resume was uploaded to the many job sites, I saw a significant increase in response from HR/Hiring Managers. My Marketing Director's amazing writing abilities (along with her ability to include the right search words within the resume), definitely "knocked my resume out of the park!" I could have never put together on my own, such a clear and concise representation of my work history and skill set. Also, I have been extremely impressed with my Marketing Director's overall service, including how responsive she was to my emails, texts, as well as her availability to talk "live," whenever I had a quick question or simply needed to discuss how to handle a a bad interview. I recently accepted a job with a leading advertising agency in NYC, and believe that ECP definitely made the difference!!!! I will certainly recommend ECP to my friends and colleagues who may be looking for new job opportunities. read more

ECP was a complete game-changer in my job search. It started with the onboarding process, which guided me to think through and document my career history, complete with success stories and metrics. Then I met my career coach, who rewrote my resume using stories from onboarding and started teaching me detailed best practices for networking, applying, interviewing, and more. The team from ECP also got right to work on building me a marketing campaign, including a professional-looking website and video, and my coach helped me punch up my LinkedIn profile as well. The combination of these factors led to an immediate, significant increase in interview invitations, getting my resume out of the "big pile" and onto the hiring team's radar. Then, over time and with additional coaching, my interviewing skills were honed until, finally, it happened: I landed my dream role with an incredible company! It's absolutely a direct result of everything I learned from ECP, as well as the resume and marketing materials they built for me. Hiring ECP was the single best decision I made in this process, and I couldn't be happier with the value they delivered! read more

I started speaking to ECP in October. I decided with the pandemic and with many individuals in similar situations as mine, I could probably use all the help I could get. While I was nervous about the fee, I felt strongly it would be worth the investment. ECP provided an approach and service, which I felt was what I needed precisely. First, I loved the process ECP has in place to assist with the redesigning of resumes. I was impressed with how quickly a new format was presented to me. I have continued to refine the resume and update as needed based on positions applied to. Additionally, I found the assistance with my LinkedIn profile, personalized website, and targeted emails to recruiters and VC on my behalf will help me find the right new position. The most valuable part of the service has been working with my Career Strategist, Sheri Bender. She has walked me through every step, kept me informed regarding what tasks should take priority, and continues to provide clear advice and motivation. She is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, friendly, and professional. I look forward to the continued partnership. read more

Working with ECP felt less like receiving generic career advice and more like having a trusted mentor in my corner. From intake through ongoing coaching, the support was highly personalized and thoughtfully aligned with my goals. I worked with Ramsey Penegar, Senior Career Strategist, for about six months, and the experience was exceptional. Ramsey took the time to understand me as a whole person--not just a résumé--and translated my goals, questions, and concerns into a clear, actionable strategy. Our work helped me expand my network, strengthen my personal marketing, and refine my communication and interview approach. I especially valued Ramsey's consistent encouragement, accountability, and adaptability as my priorities evolved throughout the process. For anyone feeling stuck, considering a career pivot, or seeking confidence and clarity before a job search, I highly recommend Ramsey and ECP. This coaching experience reshaped how I think about my personal brand and value--and, most importantly, gave me the confidence to pursue not just a new role, but the right opportunity. read more

Michelle brought a perfect blend of professionalism, insight, and genuine care to every conversation.

Through my consultations, they helped me think about and reconsider the way I brand myself and my career. As my career search partner, the team provided key insights on my current search strategy and tactics, and helped me take my job search to next level. As a result, I have received several offers thanks in large part due to help of the ECP team. It was amazingly beneficial to my job search. I was able to rework my resumes and tailor them to the open positions more effectively, establish a more professional personal branding website, better prepare for interviews, and received guidance on who to reach at the firms I was applying to.
