Very clear, concise, fast, but I can keep up

By Wendy Singleton on 2/17/2020

The course content is very good. The exercises are helpful and make you think objectively about your dreams and wishes and the real life career stories are inspiring too.

By pranav kancharlawar on 2/14/2020

The advices given in the course is very good but they should show one example how to look up for the specific job and give one example of CV and Cover letter.

This course provides great information for getting into the proper mindset for success.

By Amy King on 11/9/2019

Its giving me a good guide to help me structure my thinking as I tackle the job search. Ways to narrow my focus instead of being overwhelmed by the entire process.

By Kevin Ernst on 8/22/2019

I like the exercises that force you to do some reflection on what motivates you. This is an immediate departure from a lot of the career-oriented job search material I've looked at.

By Kat Ferguson on 8/19/2019

I love the short videos and brief but focused exercises

By Muneer Fulayfil on 3/17/2019

to the point - great module so far

By Daniel Novichkov on 1/18/2019

The course helps stop worrying and begin gradually understanding your internal motives for a job change. Exploring your true values step-by-step, by small chunks, makes your job search project feasible and not so challenging

By Cooper Alexander on 1/15/2019

Provides questions and suggestions to better understand what's important and what to ask in order to find a good fit with a company.

By Amanda Alber on 1/3/2019

Yes it was great to have all areas of the job search covered in one spot instead of having to research each topic separately

By Ashley Feit on 11/26/2018

This was a great value for the money. I got way more than I expected from this module! I really like that there are worksheets to step you through the process. Some of the points toward the end about cover letters, resumes and networking were content that I know; however, I did pick up additional nuggets on each topic. An, if nothing else, it reinforced what I knew already. You may have just saved me hundreds of dollars I was considering spending on a career coach!
