The person who helped me with my job search, Amanda, was fantastic! She really made the job search process so much easier to understand. She made it to where it didn’t feel like a chore. The tips and tools she provided for me are something I will continue to use in the future.

More guidance than I realized I needed!
My experience working with Bethany through VelvetJobs was very positive and much more personalized than I expected. Bethany helped me take a fresh look at my career options, think through the pros and cons of different paths, and better recognize the value of my skills and experience.
She helped me update my résumé and LinkedIn profile for today’s job market, including making them more effective for recruiter searches and applicant tracking systems. As an older worker returning to the job market, I was also very aware of concerns about ageism. Bethany helped me think carefully about how to present the depth of my experience in a way that felt current, relevant, and valuable to employers without minimizing everything I had accomplished over the course of my career.
Bethany also gave me useful guidance on interview preparation, alternative job-search resources, consulting as a possible career path, and training and funding programs I was considering. She was very knowledgeable about these options and was able to share real-life examples from her experience helping other clients, which made her advice feel practical and relevant.
What stood out most was how accessible, flexible, and relatable Bethany was. When I needed timely guidance, she made herself available, and our conversations never felt rushed or cut off because we had reached a time limit. We also connected on a personal level, which made it easy for me to be candid and genuine rather than feeling like I had to perform or impress her.
Bethany also helped me build confidence throughout the process. When I received a new job offer, I felt prepared to negotiate for a higher salary, and I’ll soon be starting that new position.
Overall, Bethany made my experience with VelvetJobs feel practical, thoughtful, and genuinely personal at a time when I was navigating a major career transition.

During a very difficult and challenging time in my life, Velvet Jobs was able to assist me in developing my professional skills to get the job/career that I wanted. By providing my career coach with my previous experience and future goals, she was able to tailor our 1:1 meetings and mock interviews to help prep me for what was to come. I felt so much more confident and comfortable speaking to recruiters after every session I had. I would highly recommend using the services that Velvet Jobs provides if you are looking to develop your career!

Great insights
I dealt with Luann, who really took the time to explain to me what changes I could make in my resume. She completely reformatted it, working in more active and popular actions throughout to make it more appealing and quick to scan for potential employers.
She also was great at reaching out to me regularly to keep up with things. Not too aggressive but also not too lax that I never got around to it. Thankfully I landed a new job before I even finished working with her, but I would certainly recommend VelvetJobs to anyone looking for help with their resume or LinkedIn profile.
