One year out I never actually received any type of paperwork with a financial plan. Yes, he did return emails and was willing to make many appointments to speak via zoom, but in those conversations he gave very generic advice about diversification and investing in retirement, etc etc -- the type of advice you could read off any generic website with absolutely no insight into my actual situation despite my giving him access to all of my financial information. The only specific advice I ever got was to move my retirement account under his management where he charged 1.4%. Very dissapointing.

Chris is honest and forthright, his mission truly focuses on the best interests of those who seek his expertise.

One word comes to mind when I think about the people and services I received at Your Next Jump…read more Grateful. The biggest fallacy you'll face during a job hunt is the belief that employers are in charge of the process. They're not. YNJ taught me from beginning to end the importance of taking ownership of my story. Through each consultation, call, email, revision, I learned how to take charge of my interviews, certain pitfalls to avoid, and tailoring my story with a clear end goal in mind. The result? - I received an offer every time I spoke to a hiring manager. - I increased my base salary three times. This was all because of their process. They listened, understood the potential pain points within my resume and job history, and turned it into something not only palatable, but of immense value. That's the key. Towards the end of my job search, not only did I land a role in a new industry I was hoping to pivot into (management consulting), but I gained the belief that my skills are something to be celebrated. Thanks YNJ for turning a new leaf in my life and for getting me a job where I'll thrive for years to come.

I purchased the Career Launch Kit for $899 from Your Next Jump (YNJ), along with a cover letter for…read morean additional $100. While I appreciated the professionalism in communication, the overall experience fell short in several important ways. First, there was minimal human interaction throughout the process. At no point did anyone take the time to understand my unique career goals--whether I was repositioning myself for a new industry, returning to the workforce after a break, or targeting a specific type of role. The service felt highly templated and lacked the strategic depth I expected from a career consulting company. They did want me to submit two job opportunities, to get an understanding of the roles I wanted to apply to, but by the time YNJ completed their services, those roles are obsolete. YNJ emphasizes their move toward AI- and tech-driven solutions, but this focus seems out of sync with recent hiring trends and feedback from recruiters nationwide, who have voiced growing concerns about the authenticity and accuracy of AI-generated materials (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/21/business/dealbook/ai-job-applications.html?smid=url-share). Unfortunately, that disconnect was evident in the documents I received. They don't need to be experts in every field, but there's a noticeable lack of industry knowledge that makes it difficult for them to highlight critical, role-specific functions. Drafts were returned with errors--including incomplete sentences and exaggerated or unclear claims--so I had to carefully review everything to avoid misrepresenting myself. Revision times of 24-48 hours (even for minor edits) created unnecessary delays in my job search. And conversations with Tim felt rushed and surface-level; I was never fully confident that my feedback was truly understood or applied. I did call YNJ to discuss these concerns before posting this review, but they did not respond, I'm assuming it is because they already received their payment. I had roughly five different hiring managers review their work, and none were impressed. While the general template that they utilize is unique to their services and adds a splash of color amid the monotonous pile of resumes, nothing really stands out. In the end, Your Next Jump's work may serve as a basic starting point, but if you're a professional with a nontraditional background, transitioning industries, or aiming for mid-to-senior level roles, you'll likely need to invest significant time refining their drafts yourself--or seek more strategic, personalized support elsewhere.

If you happen to be looking for an investment adviser, we can give some advice that can save you…read moreaggravation - and money. Permit us to share the dreadful experiences we had with the firm of Carmichael Hill & Associates in Gaithersburg, Md. We foolishly hired them to manage our savings. While it's true the Dow dropped 5.6% in 2018, our investments managed by Carmichael that year plummeted more than 7%. But that's not the worst of it. Consider their track record with us: They recommended some 50 investments in the short time we permitted them to manage our money. 41 were losers! We lost tens of thousands of dollars letting this firm manage our money. Oh, and they continued to take thousands of dollars in fees from our accounts. They made their money while we lost big. They argued we approved every one of their suggested trades. In truth, we were captive to their supposed expertise. Well, their record speaks for itself. Before you decide upon the very important decision of who gets the privilege to manage your money, consider our experiences with Carmichael and think long and hard. Trust me, you don't wish to follow in our footsteps.

You must first transfer money between your Schwab accounts and then use Zelle. Who wants those extra steps?? Zelle had been convenient. Now I MUST use Schwab. Worst of all is that Schwab doesn't allow transfers on weekends, so there is nothing you can do ....no workaround at all. Try Fidelity or Vanguard. They have probably figured it out.

I know that you're supposed to spend money to make money - but unless that money is on a new purse or shoes...I don't see the sense in parting with it. anyways - after several years of hiding money under my mattress (no, literally. I am even a little leery of banks!), I was finally convinced that I should have someone take a look at my finances and at least give me an idea of what I should be doing with it. Then, I changed jobs, and needed to roll over my 401K. So long story short, I finally worked up the courage to seek out a financial advisor. My account rep is Devon (she's now the VP of client relations or something), and she is amazing! Prior to our meeting, she sent me a questionnaire about my "relationship with money" (it was like something from match.com or something!)...but as goofy as that questionaire was - it did give her a good picture of how terrified I am of investing. Evidently - there is a name for people like me! It's called "conservative investor"! HAHA! All this time, I thought it was "moron!" Anyways - Devon helped walk me through several options and convinced me to invest in some *VERY* conservative investments just to see how I felt. She also patiently explained VERY basic concepts to me - because she could tell that I was just confused and not very savvy about such things. After a few months, my money grew (obviously, before our current financial crisis), and before long, she convinced me to do systematic investments and get a little more brave with my investing (so now I'm doing "moderate/conservative" investing), so that my "nest egg" would grow (I love these comforting words she would use! HAHA!). Well - about a month into our current financial crisis - before it got *bad* (this was just as the markets started to dip), she called me to tell me that she feels that it's time to "hunker down" and that we need to move the money back into some very conservative postions (which I'm ALL for!). I've lost a bit of money - but not as much as many people I know. I'm also still a little worried (because I could have SO bought a new Dior purse with that money), but everytime I get panicky, Devon ALWAYS takes my calls (although I'm sure she has many other, larger and more important clients), and talks me down from the ledge. I don't think I'll ever be Warren Buffett or anything...but for the first time ever, I actually know what a mutual fund is!!!
