He has extensive knowledge about all aspects of the job search process and terrific techniques to help you create a compelling resume and LinkedIn profile. He provides excellent advice and perspective for pre and post networking and interviewing. And most importantly, he is extremely responsive, highly empathetic, and emotionally supportive. I recently partnered with Brent and my only regret was not engaging with him from the very start of my search. I wholeheartedly endorse Brent as a job search consultant and coach!" and "I came to the Career Resource Center (CRC) knowing I needed help making a career change. Lucky for me, I was paired with Brent as my primary career advisor. He brought humor, confidence, and focus to my job search. Most importantly, he taught me how to network. Brent helped me learn how to use informational interviews to figure out what career path I wanted to pursue. Prior to my membership at CRC, I had taken a number of career assessments – both paid and free – and Brent took those results to show me how to find people that I already knew who might help me. He advised me to ask people in my network for Advice, Information, and Referrals, and helped me write productive discussion guides. This approach to navigating a career change was one I hadn't previously considered, and it made all the difference. It eliminated some of the options I was considering, and validated that UX (user experience) was indeed the career I wanted to pursue. Working with Brent kept me focused and motivated. He helped me reframe my thinking about why I was pursuing a career change, and gave me authentic, actionable feedback about presenting myself more competently. When I felt discouraged or made little progress between sessions, he drew my attention to what I had accomplished in the face of adversity, or to what I could do to resolve a situation. Another way that Brent helped was by overhauling my resume. We worked together to revise it by reformatting it and turning my list of tasks performed at various jobs into a list of accomplishments. We reworded my skills to be transferable to the jobs I was applying for before deciding to pursue UX, and we found ways to quantify my experiences as a teacher. He showed me how to write a cover letter that showed what value I could bring to each company I was applying to, and he supported me over numerous roadblocks. If you're a job-seeker reading this, lucky for you, Brent continues coaching through PeopleFocus. Working with him is time and money well-spent! I'm thankful that he remains invested in my career and is someone who values the mutuality of relationships."
