“Tara is both professional and down to earth, when I first explained my situation, she suggested a package that suited my requirements and created a resume for me. Soon after, I started receiving interview calls and have secured a job. I’m lucky to have found her, if it was not for her expert guidance this process wouldn’t have been smooth sailing. If you are looking for a mentor, I highly recommend Tara.”

“A former work college suggested Tara’s services to help get my resume and work social networks in order. Tara’s personalised service is fantastic after some over the phone meetings to speak about my experience, Tara sent me my updated resume. The wording and simplified format all looked and read great. Tara also helps with application letters which again are all personalised and tailored for the job in question. I rate Tara’s services very highly. Recently a position I applied for had over 3000 applicants. To get an interview with that high volume of candidates highlights the quality of the documents provided.”  Dan Green – IT Professional
