“Hi MJ, I have a start date of September 15 th . Thank you so much for all of your guidance and expertise. I know that my résumé was an enormous factor in landing this position, which is actually my dream job.”

V. G. - Director of Product Development & Merchandising

“MJ, This résumé and cover letter are amazing! I could have never done this on my own. People asked me why I needed to hire a professional writer because they think I write really well. Well, they don't know what good writing is! Also, the Linked In profile is perfect. I see what you mean about the tone and not having it seem like you are looking for a job. You managed to hit all the best parts of my employment in a concise way. In comparison, mine was rambling and didn't flow.”

C.M. – Director, Platform Engineering

“Good Morning MJ. As I told you on the phone before we met, I was skeptical anyone could help me get my career back on track. That because I had twelve years out of the workforce being a full-time mom, no willingness to do anything related to accounting, no interest in going back to school, and clueless about what I even wanted. I am so amazed that you came up with a great idea for me. The excitement I expressed in your office is still with me days later so I know this is the real thing. And just as important, you gave me a plan. <name of person> has already agreed to take me on as an intern and teach me what I need to know to enter the field. This is going to work. I am forever grateful.”

N. W. – Career Changer

“Dear MJ, I worked with you back in September, to create an admissions essay to be used to apply to graduate programs. I just wanted to say thank you and inform you that I have not only been accepted to the university, but I have also been offered a paid assistantship in the psychology department. I cannot thank you enough for your guidance as it relates to knowing just what to write in that essay as well as your eloquence.”

M. D. – Graduate School Candidate in Psychology

“Hi MJ. This is <name of client>, you wrote my résumé, cover letter, and Linked In profile a little over a month ago. I just wanted to thank you and let you know that I accepted a job offer for a human resources position in Melville this past week. I was told by several people that my résumé was “phenomenal.” I kind of new that because as soon as I started applying to companies, it only took a few days before I started to hear back. In the past three weeks I went on three job interviews, got two offers, and now have the job I want. Thanks for all your hard work. I look forward to working with you again to update my résumé in the future. Kind regards.”

L. P. - Human Resources Manager

“Hi MJ. Thank you for such good work. I am really pleased. You will definitely get referrals from me.”

M. A. - Attorney

“Dear MJ, After the wonderful résumé and cover letter you wrote in late January, I was offered a full time career as a research associate at <name of company>. They offered me a wonderful benefits package plus tons of room for advancement into management. I would like to thank you for your service. It was excellent and I would recommend you to anyone.”

G. M. - Real Estate Market Research Analyst

“Hello MJ. This note comes a little late but I wanted to let you know that I am now working for <name of company> as their General Manager at <name of property>. This position is exactly what I was looking for. They were quite impressed with the résumé and cover letter and it definitely put me ahead of other candidates. Thank you for all your help in not only creating a great résumé but also for helping me realize my actual worth. Happy Holidays.”

C.B. - Property Manager

“Dear MJ, I just got a job! I sent out about 12 résumés and interviewed 5 times. More than one employer stated they appreciated the detailed information and that the résumé was a pleasure to read. Some of the interviews were tough but the interview practice we did helped me keep my composure, answer the unavoidable questions about my career change, and give the strong answers we discussed. Thanks again.”

R.K. - Project Manager, Landscape Design

"The human resource manager at [company name] interviewed me yesterday and said my resume was one of the most well-written ones she had ever read. I made it to the next level. Thank you so much for all of your efforts. You are truly great at what you do.”

J.B. - Corporate Attorney

"MJ, Thank you so much for what you did for "H."    You have a great ability to look at a situation objectively, get to the essence of a person, see their strengths, and translate that to career options. We never knew about the field of market research before, but "H" is excited about it. I see why you feel it's a good choice for him and I agree. "H" floundered for three years out of college, what a waste of time. I wish we found you sooner.”

Parent's comments
H.Y. - Young adult, no career focus

"Hi MJ, I got two interviews from the first four resumes I sent out and I accepted one of these positions with a salary $10,000 higher than what I was making when I came to you. I feel foolish that I initially balked at your fee. I am so grateful to you!”

R.M. -  Marketing Director

"MJ, I am somewhat at a loss for words. When I came to you I was professionally, and personally, a mess. It was amazing how you were able to see through all of my poor job choices to come up with the perfect career for me. You are like some kind of mindreader...actually you are better than a mindreader because my mind was blank at that point. Because of you, a have a career direction that I am excited about and that I also know is attainable. Thank you for your wisdom. I will always remember you.”

C.D. -  Future Corporate Treasury Professional

"MJ, The resume you wrote for me was excellent. It transformed what I thought was a problematic background of recent part-time jobs into a powerful message about my strengths. In addition to getting me interviews (I had two this week) it has made me more confident in discussions with employers. I'll let you know where I  land.”

S.S.  - Administrative Assistant

"MJ, I am one of your success stories. I was successful at obtaining a school counseling position for September with [name of school district]. The competition was keen. I was told they received over 100 resumes and interviewed 15 candidates. Not only did the resume you wrote for me make the cut, but the interview coaching was superb. The questions they asked were so similar to the ones you had me practice with you. Feeling so prepared, I was able to keep my nervousness away. Thank you for all your professional help.”

A.M. - Graduate Student

"I'm very pleased with the proof copy, no changes necessary…Wish I could write as well as you.”

M.S. - Information Technology Manager

"MJ, I got a job at a firm located in Garden City. I don't have to commute to Manhattan anymore. They said the resume was so comprehensive that it eliminated a lot of the questions they were going to ask me on the interview. They spent the interview time telling me about the firm. Whew!”

J.D. - Law Librarian

"Just to let you know by last Wednesday I had 3 job offers. Thanks for your help in getting back my confidence and for writing the resume and cover letter that made my phone ring!”

J.F. - Insurance Claims Specialist

"Hi MJ, The resume is very, very good. Everyone I show it to loves it. I will call you in the morning to find out when I can come to your office to pick up the hard copies and CD. Thanks again.”

F.B. - Sales Manager

"Dear MJ, Hope this finds you well. Thanks for the great resume. I am so glad I decided to have you work your magic on it once again so that I could walk into the interview with something entirely up-to-date. I think the interview went very well. They were particularly interested in the specifics of the integration project-you were right to move that to the top of the page and showcase it. I'm giving my cousin your name. He's been looking for a job way too long and I think his resume is the problem. (You have turned me into a resume snob!)”

J.T. - Risk Manager

"MJ, Thank you very much for the prompt delivery of the resume and cover letter. Over the weekend, my wife and I read it several times and couldn't help being thoroughly impressed. We see no changes necessary. Thanks again.”
