Wow - where to start? Kolby was such a great career coach! I came to him because I was burned out…read morefrom my last job, burned out from the general trajectory my career had taken, and needed help switching and figuring out how to do that. Kolby was really systematic in his approach. First, he helped identify what I was truly passionate about. Second, he was almost a therapist in the sense that he addressed the work insecurities I had. Once I was on board and believed that I could do the work I wanted to do and do it well, he edited my resume and cover letter and LinkedIn profile. Then we used the remaining sessions to do some interview preparation, and really worked on telling my story in an interesting way, and ensuring that the interviewers understood it too. What I like about his approach was that he taught me that interviews are just as much about me interviewing the company as it is about them interviewing me. It was a mindshift for me to be picky and protective about where I want to work too. Anyways, with Kolby's help, I landed at a great place that resulted in a 45% salary increase! also the work life balance is much better, and the type of work is interesting too. Could not recommend Kolby enough!

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.

He also guided me with salary negotiation (something I had never done before!) after the job offer. I can't thank Jeremiah enough for his expertise, frankness, and encouragement that gave me the confidence going into these interviews. He genuinely cares about the success of his clients, and enthusiastically provides the support you need, when you need it. I would HIGHLY recommend working with O'Keefe Career Consulting!!

This new job was definitely a promotion over my last one, and I'm very happy 4 months in. In the interest of full disclosure: I know Kim personally, which is how I came to work with her for career services. When she asked me to write a review, I happily said I would. While I've never worked with other one-on-one coaches, I had mandatory career classes in college which were designed to prepare me for to write a strong resume and hone my interviewing skills. Kim helped me refine those skills and gave me context specific suggestions (my new job is with a much smaller company than my last job). She helped build my confidence in myself, and helped pinpoint my strengths and articulate them in ways I hadn't though of. I think I, like many others, suffer from "imposter syndrome" and she definitely helped me have more confidence in my skills. Finally, she refreshed my resume and formatted it to look truly professional. My classes at best got me something passable, but she helped get it to a point where it really stood out. After working with her, I'm happy to say I'd hire me. :)

Working with Michelle Cornelius was one of the best experiences I've had during a job search. From…read morethe very beginning, she took the time to understand not only my qualifications but also my long-term career goals. Rather than making me feel like just another candidate, she made me feel genuinely valued throughout the entire process. Michelle was incredibly responsive, transparent, and encouraging every step of the way. She consistently kept me updated, answered my questions promptly, and provided honest insight that helped me feel prepared and confident. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to finding the right fit--not just filling a role--truly set her apart. What impressed me most was how much she genuinely cared about my success. It's rare to come across someone who is as invested in helping people grow professionally as Michelle is. Her guidance and support made what can often be a stressful experience feel smooth, organized, and exciting. If you're looking for a recruiter who leads with integrity, communicates exceptionally well, and truly advocates for her candidates, I can't recommend Michelle highly enough. Thank you for everything you made a lasting impression, and I'm incredibly grateful for your support throughout the process.

She was proactive and constantly checked in making sure I was happy. Megan is truly the best, not just saying that because she got US A JOB and a great company. On top of that, she was kind enough to connect my friend that is looking for a new job with one of her colleagues. Proven has great staff all around and I highly recommend them.

Adam's compassionate, personable, and intelligent approach to our sessions was instrumental. I really enjoyed our interactions.
