What people say

Our chat really boosted my confidence. The career world, like adulthood, can be very scary, but our talk today was a game-changer for me. Those 30 minutes were like a supercharging session; you were the battery that powered me up. Please keep doing what you're doing—your insights are invaluable, and I hope the job market realizes that too and starts treating us more kindly!

O.K., Career 1:1 session

I just wanted to update you since the last time we spoke, as so much changed in such a short space of time! ... I feel like you’ve really helped me be a lot more brave and assertive in my job search which has given me the confidence to hold out for something which feels right. I think old [REDACTED] possibly would’ve still started this other job, but I realise now that I don’t need to compromise on what I’m looking for and that there will be something out there which ticks all (or most!) of my boxes!

L.T., Career 1:1 session

Social Lead, Habitat

That wonderful feeling when your friend messages to cancel the drinks you had planned? That's the same feeling you'll get working with Lauren. A mix of relief, warmth and happiness. … They'll even tell you if your job descriptions are pants. … An absolute delight to work with - responsive, collaborative, and never once made us feel like we were clueless (even when we might have been).
