Career Coaching Testimonials

"...even though it was only a little over an hour that I spent with her on that day I left totally inspired. Thank you Kim for re-igniting my flame."

~~ Michael Fox, Owner Foxy Marketing and Foxy Logistics Solutions

 "Talking with Kim was a really valuable experience! She helped me to improve my resume and provided great insight and invaluable advice on how to change my career path. Thanks Kim for all your help!

~~Mark Stubbs, Senior IT Auditor, Sydney, Australia

“Kim was able to find the words I could not find as a dedicated numbers person for my resume. As a career consultant she understands the needs of the candidate and is always willing to help. I would highly recommend Kim if you are having problems with resume and need a supportive career coach.”

~~Colleen Chan, Business Analyst, Sydney Australia

"Kim's professional experience is vast but she is still able to see the world of career through a fresh perspective. I found her guidance invaluable at a turning point in my career. I always felt confident in her abilities and that evaluating my career path with her guidance was going to lead to a richer and more fulfilling life. Kim possesses a wealth of tools and knowledge in order to help you, but her real talent lies in looking at life balance in a holistic way and asking "What do you want?". After answering that its just a question of approach!"

~~Andrew McAvinchey, Film Director / Producer, Dublin Ireland

"I was fortunate to receive a consultation with Kim Smith to get clarity on my future employment and life direction. Kim is so confident, funny and warm that she easily drew my real intentions for wanting a change out of me. She took me through a series of exercises to allow me to figure out what I really wanted as my outcomes in life (including work, family, romance, finances, creativity, health, spirituality). Through that, I was able to propose some options of how I could achieve my goals and then brainstorm these options. It is difficult in life to cut through all the stuff that is not really that important. Kim helped me see what it is that is truly important to me and how to focus on that and let everything else that wastes energy and time fall away. I use these tools in my everyday life and they have helped me tremendously. Kim's warm, energetic and creative spirit created a sense of immediate trust and "fun". Thanks so much, Kim, for this gift that I will use forever!"

~~Jessica Walden, Technical Specialist, Quality Assurance International, San Diego California

"Kim really took the time to give me constructive and helpful advice about my resume. The advice that Kim provided has been invaluable to my job search and has enabled me to better articulate my achievements and experiences in interviews. I would recommend Kim to all candidates."

~~Matthew Clarke, Sydney, Australia

"I would encourage candidates and employers to consult with Kim on your next important career or recruitment decision."

~~Craig Richardson, Chief Financial Officer, Coca Cola Amatil, Auckland, New Zealand

"I recently had a career planning session with Kim Smith. She was able to help me gain insights into what my strengths are and how to combine those strengths with my passions to create a career opportunity that is incredibly exciting! I'm just getting started on my new career search, but I feel that I have the tools to put together a great resume, cover letter, and ideas on where to look for that perfect position. Kim helped to get organized so that I have a 5-year plan and I know what each step looks like, and what is needed to accomplish my goals at each step. Thanks Kim!"

~~Jen Brown, future yoga retreat owner, Laguna Beach, CA

"Kim was a joy to work with - a consummate professional, dedicated, energetic, and with a strong work ethic. She is a great communicator and really connects with candidates. She is an incredible asset to an organization."

~~Anna Langston, Consultant, The Remmick Group, Chicago, IL

 Additional Packages

  • Executive Coaching: Take your job performance, management skills, communication skills or presentation skills to the next level.  This is traditional Executive Coaching work with a twist.  We spend our first few sessions working on your psychological fitness.  We make sure you don't have any limiting beliefs, emotional baggage or unresolved internal conflicts that will hold you back prior to working on practical issues such as management, communication, or presentation skills.
  • Learn to manage your own job search and not just rely on recruitment consultants and job sites to find your next job. The market is changing and more and more companies are not relying exclusively on recruitment consultants to find staff. In order to keep up you must learn to manage your own job search including:
    • Approaching companies directly
    • Using online resources to find roles and be exposed to more opportunities
    • Using online resume warehouses
    • Systematising and utilising your own network of contacts
  • Proactively manage your career. Of the 5,000 candidates that Kim Seeling Smith has interviewed she estimates that only 5% of those candidates proactively manage their career. What does this cost them?  Certainty that they will be able to do what they want to do, earn what they want to earn and rise to the level to which they want to rise.  Don't be caught out by another shift in the economy, a change in fortunes in your company or a personal sea change.  Take steps now to plan where you want to go and how you can get there (note...there will be several different paths).
  • Manage your online brand equity. Everyone has an online brand...do you know what yours is?  And more, importantly if it helps or hurts you? We can help you discover what your online image already says about you and then we can help you craft a very robust, proactive online image that represents you in highly professional brand presence to raise your visibility including establishing a killer LinkedIn profile. LinkedIn has become a preferred method of hiring managers and recruiters alike to source candidates. We will help you create a unique personal blog that will highlight your background, showcase articles you may have written, display your original thoughts or ideas on your industry or function and promote any other products or services you would like to include. We will even set up a Twitter account for you so you can start to follow interesting people and Tweet on interesting subjects.
  • Help you learn to network more effectively.  As you move up the corporate ladder more and more opportunities will come to you via your network of contacts.  You can dramatically increase the opportunities that are shown to you by using a system to keep track of and approach your network of contacts.
  • Get you back to work!  Even if you've been looking for more than 6 months.  Have you been out of work for more than 6 months? There are typically 4 reasons for this; your resume is not strong enough to get you an interview, your interview skills are not strong enough to get you the job, you are letting someone else control your job search and not utilising all methods necessary in today's environment and finally you're not mentally prepared. Most of the time candidates who remain unemployed for the mid to long term fall into the latter category and are even sometimes overlooked in favour of lesser qualified candidates. The "You're Hired" package includes a 5 hour group mentoring session where 15 year recruitment veteran and Certified Master Neuro Strategist, Kim Seeling Smith will help you with all of these factors, concentrating on preparing you mentally to not only succeed at the job search process but also to have fun with it.

    You will walk out of this session with a completely new outlook on your job search along with solid advice on how to build a winning resume and conquer even the toughest interviews. 100% satisfaction guaranteed or your money back
