Testimonials

"Allow me to thank you for all of the help and assistance you provided during my now-ended job search. I start Thursday at a corporate identity, branding/environmental branding company as Director of Sales. Salary + bonus should take me back into the comfort zone. Throughout my search, I found the ideas you provided of tremendous value.

"I have also referred my neighbor to CAREER-Magic. He was on the verge of going though an executive outplacement firm and I talked him out of that...said you would do more for him in the long run than that type of company would ever do."

"Thank you for your help in drafting my salary negotiation strategy. Your ideas really lit a light bulb in my brain, the logic is irrefutable."
- J.C.
Denver, CO

"I've been laid off since 9/11, and have attended lots of networking events, outplacement sessions, and career advice forums. I'd like to recommend you check out www.career-magic.com. The Caffeinated Careers Club is hands-down the best support group with the most honest and useful information sharing I've found. They have a Yahoo group that is providing thought-stimulating info too. I wish my company's outplacement service would have been with Tracy [Executive Director of CAREER-Magic], as that would have saved me several less productive months. By the way, my endorsement and referral may be a surprise to Tracy and is totally unsolicited."
- KM, Technology Project Manager

"Thanks so much for creating this group get together. Without sounding corny, I really do feel inspired and motivated after each meeting and my feelings of stress tend to lessen quite a bit. Thanks!"
- CY, Graphic Designer

"Just a quick note to let you know how the job search is going. I sent out 5 resume and I have received 4 job offers. They are all jobs I would love to have. The difficult part is deciding which job offer to accept. THANKS FOR THE GREAT RESUME."
B.S., Oil & Gas Executive
Denver, CO

"Tracy: I forgot to tell you what happened after you updated my resume. I put out a “few” copies of my resumes through my network of folks and I immediately got three job offers. This month I begin work at Boeing as part of a government contract. Additionally, I got a whopping $10,000 raise out of the deal. Thanks Tracy!!!"
- D.L., Project Manager
Washington, D.C.

"You've done a great job cleaning up this resume. I'm most impressed by your seamless reduction of resume to two pages. How did you do it? Doesn't seem to be much if anything missing. Whatever, the result looks wonderful, something I could never have done myself, and of course well worth the dough I was hesitant to send you. In a couple of months, I'll probably send you my daughter's to do. A tough one."

"I've been meaning to email you to let you know that I was accepted into the ATLP program. There were only 10 people selected in the entire region, which is a pretty big honor. On top of that, I've also received a promotion as the result of numerous inquiries about me due to my resume. Just thought you'd be happy to hear that!"

"Thanks so much for the help. You really brought some clarity and a compelling story to what seemed like two or three wasted years."

"I am beyond impressed...The "rough" draft impressed me so much I am not sure what else needs to be done...I feel better already about this new career search and as though an enormous weight has been lifted from my shoulders by having someone else help me with this. Thank you, thank you, thank you, again and again. "
