Client Testimonials
" I have just had the best interview I've ever had for a job that seemed almost too good to be true. You'll be pleased to hear I got it. It was just wonderful to be able to talk passionately in a job interview, rather than having to pretend I was interested in whatever rubbish jobs I'd been going for previously. I am so excited and the shift pattern is perfect too, as it means I get to spend three days a week with my lovely family. I wanted to thank you for all your help. It not only helped me to get this job, by thinking about what I really wanted to do with my life and what my real passions were, but it will also stand me in good stead for any future jobs I might apply for and who knows where this one might lead."
" Following voluntary redundancy, I chose Personal Career Management as my outplacement company. They helped me achieve greater clarity, confidence and focus. As a result, I received a number of job offers but chose a role that has a Board Director career path, stock holding potential and a real opportunity to contribute to the direction and success of the company. I have recommended Personal Career Management to others, many times"
" I first linked with Personal Career Management when I felt the need to potentially leave a successful career with a company after 5 years service. My careers coach personally tailored the structured programme to suit my needs. We explored my values, where I was in my career and life and how I wanted to change things. I am pleased I invested in careers coaching early in my career. I never expected to get so much out of it and learn so much about myself. The constructive, positive and developmental feedback was exactly what I needed. The professional coaching approach, coupled with my hard work (you get out of it as much as you put in!) has helped me make choices which have improved the value of my life. I achieved a significant package increase after leaving my job and I now have run my own limited company working as a HR Interim and Personal Branding Consultant, plus I lost 2 stone in weight. All thanks to the analysis and goals set when working with Personal Career Management. I continue to dip in for a couple of hours coaching each year and really value my long term relationship with them. "
" I'd got stuck in a non-productive rut with job applications and interviews - Personal Career Management's professional and sympathetic approach faciltated a 'reset' and showed me how to 'play the game' to win. I've successfully managed to move out of a collapsing industry into a growing industry with lots of opportunities. I now have a career plan and understand what I need to do to maximise my potential. Their service offers much more than just finding jobs to apply for - we covered interview skills and in particular those difficult to answer questions. In comparison with some of the other services you see advertised Personal Career Management is also very good value. I'd highly recommend them to anyone who wants to move from having a series of jobs to having a career. "
" I was unhappy at work and it filtered through from the office into my home life. I felt comfortable right from the start in working with Personal Career Management. My coach helped me process what was happening at work and gave the practical support and advice I needed to move from what was a stressful situation. I am now working in a new role that I enjoy and I feel so much happier and less stressed. I feel much more in control and confident about the future. Working with Personal Career Management helped me look objectively at myself, gave me a future plan - and quite simply I would never have come this far without them. "
" I believe I was able to achieve a job offer not only from my first choice employer but also a salary offer even above my salary expectation, due primarily to the guidance, advice and top class support I received from Personal Career Management. "
" After 25 years of working for the same company, finding a new job was never going to be easy. I was aware that I could be quite negative and this was not helping. I wanted a sounding board to help me evaluate my options and put in place some form of process and discipline to move my career forward. Personal Career Management helped me approach the market with renewed confidence. I found the process cathartic. They helped reinforce my key skills and assets which really helped me believe in myself much more and this undoubtedly made a difference with employers. I have been able to obtain some well-paid contracting roles which are perfect for me! "
