Testimonials
Meet Kate: Resume Strategist for Women
For many years, I was a successful nanny, but when my sons were 4 and 1, I realized I needed a corporate salary, 401K matching, and healthcare.
I didn’t have time to start from the bottom of a company. I needed a “real” job ASAP!
I knew I had the skills to be successful— I just needed to learn how to make that obvious to prospective employers.
As I discovered how to finesse my own resume to land a corporate job, I realized so many Stay at Home Moms I knew were in similar situations, and I knew I had to share my resume expertise.
I’ve helped so many job seekers take their resumes from from uncertain and apologetic to fierce and competitive— and they’ve landed the jobs to prove it.
