"Karyn was referred to me by a mutual friend and it was one of the most fortuitous events of my professional life. I had worked in the same industry, one that became challenged and was in transition, for over thirty years. I told Karyn that I wanted to reinvent myself and find a job in a different role, and a different industry. With uncanny intuition, Karyn quizzed me about my prior experience, skills, and interests that developed into a very solid resume, the precise tool I needed to begin my transitional job search in earnest.
Early on, Karyn gave me an article from the Harvard Business Review which was about telling one's "story" during the interview process. So, when I reached the point when I was able to tell my story in interviews about why I wanted a complete career change, I did so with ease and conviction. Karyn drew my story out of me. It was, indeed, my story, but with Karyn's help, became the second most important tool I had to find the perfect job. It was a full time job looking for a new opportunity and I landed the perfect job. Along the way, Karyn was always there when I needed her valuable advice and welcomed encouragement. Finally, she celebrated my success, too. How lucky I was to have had such an extraordinary partner during this journey."
