I could not have had a better coaching experience. Gill was recommended to me as a starting point for the next stage of my life. I had been out of the corporate work force child raising, volunteering and helping in our family small business for almost 20 years, and my confidence was low that I would be employable at all. Gill gave me wonderful coaching by phone, teasing out my strengths, she worked wonders on my resume and cover letter getting me back into the job market and I landed interviews for the two jobs I was interested in. I walked straight back into the job force, without missing a beat but am sure I could not have done this without Gills assistance, guidance and positive practical feedback. I cannot recommend Gill highly enough.

Gill is an extremely effective career coach. I first engaged Gill in late 2016 when I was looking for some career direction. She used tools that helped me build a clearer profile of what I should ‘move towards’ in my next career step and more importantly, what I should ‘move away from’. The work she did on my resume and application docs got me an interview straight away and the feedback I got was that my application really stood out. The help she gave me with all of this plus interview preparation ensured I landed a job that is a great fit for me and I am much happier with. I highly recommend Gill and have referred her to several friends and colleagues of mine. Her invaluable insight into strategic planning is valuable to me both personally and professionally. We are in regular contact and she will no doubt be involved again if and when I make another career move.

Gill has been my Coach over the past few months. I have found her to be extremely supportive and encouraging. Her excellent listening skills and use of thought provoking questions have helped me to gain a clear perspective in many different areas. Gill’s ability to be truthful whilst at the same time understanding has been priceless. She possesses a personality that instantly puts you at ease and a nature that makes her very easy to talk to. If you have not yet engaged in a coaching session with Gill, I strongly recommend that you do.

The coaching from Gill helped me get my first graduate role at ORIMA Research as a programmer in a client facing role, and I have been a great fit in the company to this day. She helped me articulate and expand my resume into a more cohesive showcase of my skills and experience. Not only that, I am a quiet person and articulating myself was not a strong point so I was given the opportunity to practice interviews and reflect back on what was said and how I could improve. Additionally, the continuous feedback I had from Gill during the ongoing job interview period and psychometric testing was very helpful in keeping me focused. I am now in a great job that I got first time round, I have a resume that expresses my personality and, when the time comes again, I am prepared for any job interview. I would definitely recommend Gill to help guide you through this process.”

Gill has a strong ability to coach at executive level and I have been very fortunate to learn from her. She has a wealth of knowledge and is a highly professional individual who easily builds trust and rapport with clients and peers alike. She has exceptional people management and relationship development skills, which she willingly shares with others. I highly recommend her.

I cannot praise Gill enough! I had next to no experience on my resume, applying for jobs that I did not think I had a chance applying for. Gill helped me expand my resume adding other key skills and strengths I hadn’t thought of and then tailored my resume to specific jobs I was applying for, and she was absolutely spot on the money. Sure enough I have had many a compliment on my resume from many professional bodies. I landed my first job at Medibank thanks to her coaching, which got me through a challenging assessment centre recruitment process. I have since secured other roles moving up the ranks and I always check-in for her guidance when I do. Gill is a great coach, no matter what job you’re applying for. Thanks for your help Gill!”
