“After job searching for months with no end in sight, I took the PROject Career Jumpstart course. During the course, I landed my first job interview and ultimately got hired! The program gave me invaluable guidance, from sharpening my resume to helping me feel confident and prepared for the interview. I’m truly grateful”
I just confirmed the job, thank you, thank you! I’m attributing a lot of this to your help, and I’m sure it will continue to be valuable to me in going ahead with the job, bezr’H. Thank you!
You helped me realize my professional worth and the extent of my contributions to my company, which gave me the confidence to finally ask for a long-overdue raise and role change. I wasn’t so sure I would get the raise I wanted, being that it was about a 20% increase, but thanks to Faige, I took the plunge. I’m so happy to share that I got it! Thank you for empowering me to advocate for myself.
