Don't wait any longer
I highly recommend Mark's support. He has taught me to perfect my job-hunt process, to keep records organised and see the job-hunt in an objective manner (especially during those days that seem there’s no progress). Don't wait any longer, drop him a line.

Knowledgeable, informed and a good sounding board
I have recommended Mark over a number of years when people have asked me for resume assistance and career coaching and I have always received excellent feedback. I recently met with Mark for my own career coaching. He is knowledgeable, informed and a good sounding board if you are looking for assistance when job hunting.

landing your perfect role isn't easy
What do you need help with?
Job search: How to find the right opportunities
Actively looking but don't know where to look?
There's more to job search than job boards. Do you know how to tap into the hidden job market, how to control your job search programme, and the key mistakes to avoid?
Resume/CV Applications: How to secure interviews
Not hearing back when you apply for jobs?
Your resume is probably letting you down. Or perhaps its your cover letter? Or maybe you are making common mistakes in the way you approach job applications?
Interview preparation: How to convince them you are the best candidate
Getting interviews but not the job?
Are nerves getting the better of you? Do certain questions catch you out? Or perhaps you haven't got a clue what's going wrong as it seems fine on the day?
.
Salary package negotiation: How to get what you deserve
Got the offer but it's not what you expected?
Thinking of taking it anyway because you don't know what to do? Thinking of rejecting it because you don't want to deal with confrontation? Or perhaps you are considering staying where you are - even though you are unhappy?

You will get there
Well it was one great experience, Mark always knew when and how to do things. Like seriously his mentoring is invaluable, and he never promises anything that he cannot fulfil. Rest assured, if you follow his recommendations at every stage, you will get there. Loved how things were rolling ‘as he usually says and would recommend indeed.

Coached me through the whole recruitment process
A true professional, Mark coached me through the whole recruitment process. He took the time to call me to talk things over and made sure I understood what would probably be required (and he was correct).
