Testimonials

Optimizing my Linked ln profile was a game changer! I thought I knew a lot about LinkedIn but hey I guess I didn't. Since revamping my profile, my views increased from 24 to 41 in just one week and I accepted a job as an HR Business Partner TODAY. I'm so thankful.

I signed up for the Career Contessa's New Manager Manual a week into my new job at a brand new company. In previous roles, I had managed entry- level talent, but this marked my first time managing a more seasoned team. The course was informative without being dry, and has helped me start tailoring my leadership style to fit the needs of everyone on my team. I feel so much more confident in my skills as a manager and would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is looking to grow into a leadership role!

This course helped me learn the importance of identifying my priorities so that I can focus on the things that will benefit me and those I care about the most. It also helped me gain control of my schedule so now I manage my time better and I'm able to stay focused during work hours. Awesome course overall!

Before taking this course, I had applied to 114 positions, getting 15 interviews and no offers. I felt so discouraged with my lack of results. After taking this course, I applied to 25 positions and got 9 interviews, including an offer! My interview rate alone jumped from a paltry 13% to 36%, and many of the companies that eagerly, quickly contacted me after I applied with my new resume were the very same companies I had tried applying to many times in the past to no avail.

What I really liked was the simplification of the breakdown of the steps involved for both problem solving and critical thinking. The way that you described each step made it easy to take in and furthermore implement in real life.

I’ve never written a better cover letter in my life nor been as clear of who I am in my professional life; this course gave me the information and tools to be confident and fluent in my elevator pitch.
