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.

It has been so helpful to work with Kevin these past couple of months! When my husband and…read more I were initially searching for some support with our finances, we were looking for someone who could meet us at our level and explain financial topics in ways we could understand ( HSAs, Roth IRAs, Traditional IRAs, HYSAs, etc.) We were looking for someone who help us understand our current financial picture and whether we were saving enough to be able to retire at our desired age, be able to enjoy our current hobbies of traveling, and pay for medical expenses we will have. As a woman who got married later and came to my marriage with assets, I wanted to make sure I was making smart financial decisions with regards to my investments, savings, and spending habits as I know I will take home less money than my husband. We found that in Kevin and are so grateful for his knowledge and guidance. Kevin has helped me understand my financial portfolio and adjust my investment choices to match my financial goals. He has a unique approach to providing guidance with regards to finances which involves front loading the work together with weekly meetings the first month followed by check-ins and continued financial information through articles on various financial topics. We highly recommend working with Kevin if you are looking for solid guidance around your finances.

Kevin has been such an incredible asset in my life. I knew that I was not confident in how to…read morehandle money and the stressors of bills and student loans after graduating and starting my first full time job. I also didn't know if I was being too hasty in pursuing a financial advisor when I was just starting out; was the investment in a financial planner worth it considering I had little assets, a moderate paycheck, and student loan debt? Since I was rather anxious in not wanting to make mistakes that could impact the rest of my financial life, I decided to look into Kevin. His website drew me in with his focus on millennials and the unique financial challenges we face. He seemed real and truthful which is what I was looking for above all else. Someone to give me real, concrete advice, and not take advantage of me considering my limited understanding in "adult" finances. After my first free consultation I knew I was in good hands and that his website accurately reflected his values. Although it was a financial investment to get a financial planner, Kevin has helped me set up a future that is beyond worth the money I spent/spend. We continue to have check-ins as my financial situation changes and he never holds judgement when I need a concept explained or broken down considering money has a lot of jargon. I now feel confident in my plans for paying off my student debt, investing in my future, and living a normal life all at the same time. I recommend him to all my friends and coworkers when conversations turn to finances as we all navigate this often challenging money world.

I've emailed them daily about my money that they refuse to return. First she told me that my account has not been verified by the bank. Why hasn't she notified me about this sooner so I can help them out? Perhaps one of her stalling tactics. She then told me that she was referring my account to H&R and she will see to it that I'm notified by someone before the end of that week which is the week of July 10th. I asked her to provide me H&R information on the 8th of July but no response. On July 9th I emailed her again then she made it seem like I have some mental problems. Now if this bitch think that she can keep my money and I'm not going to keep asking for it then she can think all she wants of me. Mental problem? This bitch is the one taking people's money but I am the one with the mental problem? There are 12 people that I know of personally that she has their money but she kept lying about sending them a schedule of their payouts but when the date comes around there is no money send to them. She has even lied to them about sending them wires but there's always something wrong with the other investors' bank even though these people have send Aneaka their money from the same bank. Most of these people are military veterans that are both active duty and retired. My husband is retired military. What a way to repay our military people that are fighting for these people's freedom. On Friday the 10th she emailed David Ostwinkle of Hill & Rainey Attorneys and included me on it. David did not contact me until Wednesday July 15th because I've asked Aneaka for my money every single day after she promised that her trustee will contact me the week before, so I included David on my emails. He emailed me this. "I am David Ostwinkle, an attorney in Virginia, and I represent Aneaka English. Please be advised that I am aware of your situation and will be helping Ms. English navigate through resolving the issues involved, including the prepared release you have been presented with. Please do not email me repeatedly." I don't really care about this dude's request to not email him repeatedly. HE STILL HAS NOT CONTACT ME TO RESOLVE MY ISSUE. So he WILL continue to be included in all my emails with this lady that is trying to steal my money. Aneaka emailed me on Monday July 20th asking what my opposition is with the release that they send. I told her that her lies that she told me in an email on June 24th stated that she would pay me my first interest payment on the 6th of July but it's been almost a month and I haven't received anything. She send a payment schedule and I didn't agree with it because I need my money and she lied about sending me money. Apparently from talking to other investors she has been saying the same thing to them. She has been taking their money and then providing them with a payment schedule that she never used. This lady is a liar. Currently she has 2 pending lawsuits against her. One in Virginia and I know of this lady and another in Washington DC which is a Canadian man. One of my friends is also seeking an attorney to sue her so that would be a third lawsuit. You can access them through these sites. https://www.unitedstatescourts.org/federal/vaed/315664/ https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/7944821/STEWART_v_ES_INVESTMENT,_INC_et_al STAY FAR AWAY FROM HER AND HER COMPANY!!!
