Testimonials

Liz played a crucial role in my pursuit of a position with a charity. Her insights on crafting a persuasive covering letter were spot-on, helping me showcase my career effectively. Liz’s encouragement and support were a constant boost, keeping my motivation alive during the application process.

Thanks to her guidance, I successfully landed the job and I owe a big thanks to Liz for her practical assistance and positive influence on my journey to employment.

I had a really helpful career guidance session with Liz three years ago, shortly after completing my training as a coach. Liz’s inspired questioning, spot-on intuitive hits and warm encouragement to dig into what I truly wanted led me to real clarity and self-trust around building my coaching work into a full-time business, which I have since done.

Liz has a gift for deep listening and allowing the space for her clients to come up with their own answers. Having known Liz personally for over twenty years, I can also vouch for her professionalism, integrity and passion for making a difference in other people’s lives and I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for clarity and inspiration for the next step in their career.

Liz gave me very helpful advice on how to format my CV changing the layout and content of it.  I now have a CV that has a greater chance of being noticed by a potential employer, especially with regard to my skill set.

This I feel is having a more positive effect on my job applications. She has also given me useful tips on interview techniques and I am actively applying these in job interviews now.

Thank you Liz for helping me to become more confident in the interview process!

I found the career session with Liz very useful and insightful. As a graduate, I was not sure what career area I wanted to go into. At the start of the session, Liz showed me some photos and asked me to choose which one reflected how I was currently feeling.

She then asked me to talk about my career interests and my background. She helped me to reflect on different areas I enjoyed and did not enjoy, using activities to help. We also discussed my strengths and weaknesses.

After the session, I had a clearer idea of which career direction I wanted to go into.

Liz was very empathic and good at listening to me but prompting me to think about what I wanted out of a career.

When I went to see Liz I was uncertain about the type of work I should seek and what would be available to someone who had taken a long career break bringing up children. I therefore was grateful to discuss and highlight my strengths and work out what I really was looking for.

Liz was extremely helpful and identified my motivation for going back to work. We had a few sessions and I realised that I wanted to work with people in a sociable environment on a part time basis. I found work in a café that worked out well with family life.

Liz conducted a detailed analysis and professionally guided me through the process of finding useful websites and training that could help me, I would recommend her services.

Prior to my careers meeting with Liz, midway through my A levels, I was increasingly unsure and nervous of the prospect of having little or no idea of the direction I wanted to pursue. Liz was very understanding and focused in her analysis of my situation, where she helped me to reconcile my thoughts and lay out all my options, allowing me to make an informed, sensible decision that would continue to broaden my options until I was certain of the path I wanted to take.

I decided to do a year’s Foundation Diploma in art and design, this enabled me to discover my absolute passion and apply for a degree in Fashion Contour Design at De Montfort University.

I am now in my third year doing my placement year at Aura a lingerie supplier. Looking back, Liz was an important stepping stone that brought me to where I am today within my studies, her clear, considered help was just what I needed at the time and something I will be forever grateful for.

Liz was very warm and positive, I found she was able to draw out of me skills and experience I’d previously undervalued, helping me re-write my CV so that it now looks fresh and dynamic, and is something I feel confident in presenting to recruiters. She is a patient listener and has become an attentive mentor who I feel I can turn to for support when I need her, all of which has been a huge help in my attempts to return to work in such uncertain times.

Liz has worked with my company on several occasions, delivering careers guidance to young people in schools. I have always been impressed by her professionalism both within and outside the guidance sessions.

Student feedback has always been very positive, highlighting her natural ability to connect with the student and give targeted and impartial guidance to each individual.

Liz has delivered Careers Guidance Interviews to our Year 11 and Year 12 cohorts for the past couple of years. She is friendly, creative and extremely adaptable, delivering both one-to-one and group sessions, always ensuring students have fully explored all options in regards to GCSE, A level and Career choices.

Feedback from students is always excellent, even when conducting group guidance, students feel that Liz uses the time to address individual needs as well as covering common ground. Liz also provides excellent notes and links for students to follow up post-interview.

Liz has worked with the students at Skinners Kent Academy for the last two years, helping to provide thorough 1:1 careers advice meetings for Year 11 and 12 students. She is professional in her approach, and has provided our students with varied and impartial advice as to where their careers interests could take them in the future.

Liz goes above and beyond to provide the necessary links and extra careers information for students to follow up on, even after their meeting with her. We would not hesitate to recommend her services to any other school or individual considering using her careers services.
