Testimonials

Yvonne Cohen – Career Coach, Life Coach or organisation expert! Over the last 2 years she has been an array of all of those in my life. She has guided me to find what sparks my passion and to focus on steps towards the future.

My resume has had the excess kicked out and my LinkedIn profile set up and now I use it as a daily part of my life. Never have I had such positive feedback about my resume! Yvonne has given me the support to develop the confidence to refocus my professional direction and follow my passion. Her approach brought clarity and insights to my passion and skill set. My resume is strong now and has opened multiple opportunities.

Yvonne has also coached my Year 12 daughter. When she was lost for direction, Yvonne helped her to find a path through the confusion with honest conversations and accountable actions. I highly recommend Yvonne’s coaching services, because everyone needs Yvonne to bring vision back into their life.

Looking for a new job was a daunting prospect for me. Yvonne was incredibly supportive and helpful especially in guiding me through the development of my resume and preparing me for interviews. Thank you for assisting me through this journey. I am delighted that I secured my new job!

When I lost my job, I was recommended by a friend to see Yvonne. She helped me to identify my knowledge gaps and areas where I was lacking confidence. Based on this we developed a new resume, we focused on interview techniques and I was able to land a few interviews straight away. Yvonne gave me direction, confidence and purpose when I needed it most!

I have used Yvonne’s services twice over the last 4 years and each time I landed the job of my dreams. Yvonne is absolutely amazing and knowing that I have a professional CV accompanied by a rock-solid selection criteria template that gets me to the interview stage is priceless. I highly recommend Yvonne and her services for anyone who is in need of updating their resume or being brought up to speed with current interview skills.

A few years ago, I went back to university to become a Counsellor, after a mid-life decision to change my career from advertising. Although I did well at uni and graduated with high marks, I had no experience in my new profession, and it seemed that nobody was willing to give me a try. No matter how many jobs I applied for I couldn’t even get an interview.

I was worried that I had made a huge mistake and would have to go back to my old job, but after a couple of sessions with Yvonne I was getting interviews, then job offers, and now I am working in a role that I really love.

During our sessions Yvonne taught me: how to put together a great CV that demonstrated all my knowledge and my transferable skills; how to write responses to Key Selection Criteria; how to write a compelling cover letter; and how to answer some of the common curly questions asked in job interviews.

I am so grateful for the skills and tips I got from Yvonne. I am certain that without her expertise I would not be where I am today, with a new rewarding career and a job that I really enjoy.

I have used Yvonne’s coaching services several times and have found her to be very flexible and understanding. She helped me to examine and identify my core skills and capabilities, and to put them into the right language for my resume and LinkedIn profile – I got noticed! I got the job interviews and landed the job I was after. What I valued most was that Yvonne really listened to what I needed, she had a great toolkit of resources she shared, and I was able to achieve the outcome I wanted.

Yvonne is a leading expert in the career development field. A warm and approachable person, she has helped and guided many individuals of all ages and backgrounds. Yvonne is also passionate about making career management skills accessible to all and has produced first class tools and tutorials.
I recommend Yvonne to my clients and I also seek her counsel about career trends and opportunities.
