Before I chose to see a career coach, I felt uncertain about my career direction and I felt like I…read morejust didn't fit in at my workplace. I kept applying to the same types of jobs because I didn't know what else I could do. The coaching I received helped me to figure out the type of work that would really suit me. It made me realize how marketable I really was and that I do have plenty of options (that I didn't know about before). I learnt how to talk to employers about my strengths. Now after the coaching, I really feel really confident in interviews. One thing I did not expect (but looking back, I am very grateful for) was learning some easy and manageable ways to deal with stress when things got rough in my workplace. In fact, it was only when I lowered my own stress about work, that things began to get clearer about my future and what I needed to do to succeed. Looking back, I'm not sure how far I could have gone if I hadn't done it this way. The coaching at Careers by Design was highly effective and I recommend them to anyone struggling with a career problem. I checked out various companies before deciding to try out Careers by Design. I'm so glad that I chose them because they gave me personal attention and really cared about my success. It was one of the best decisions I have made for my career!

It takes a lot to galvanize this copywriter to write a review. In this instance, I'd like to give a…read moreshout-out to Creative Circle, a Toronto recruitment firm that specializes in my field, marketing and advertising. Shortly after I replied to a copywriter position posted on a job board, I received an email from Gillian, one of the talent scouts at Creative Circle. I was asked to drop in for a one-on-one, and enjoyed my interview process. Gillian knew the ad business, as she had worked agency-side. While the job I had applied for was filled, Gillian said she would keep in touch. And surprise, she did! While the agency biz is crying for web developers and motion graphic designers, it's a much drier place for copywriters--hey everybody can write a sentence, but not everybody can code a snippet. That said, when a copywriting gig did come up, and Gillian felt I was suitable, she would call and ask if I was available for the short-list. Thanks to Creative Circle, I recently ended up with a writing gig at SapeintNitro. Once you've got a record--a good record--the calls come more frequently. So kudos--overall, a definitely positive experience for me.
