In the summer of 2020, I left a job that I held for over 20 years. I had thought that I'd retire there, but it had become a place that I knew I needed to leave. I was frightened. I was 59 years old, and had neither applied or interviewed for a new job in 25 years! I had been looking forward to winding down my career, not ramping it up. I knew that I needed help.
I contacted several career services, and chose to go with CareerJoy because they were the most responsive; I got a call back that day.
They paired me with someone tailored to my needs (George), and what a gift! George helped me to understand my value in my field, coached me on how to manage an interview, and how to communicate my value to prospective employers. I could say so much more, but by far, that was the best money that I ever spent. It was an investment in myself, because the personal gains I made through my contact with CareerJoy remain with me today. Thank you!!
