Testimonials

T. Kenny
"Having personal contact with one particular counselor for a relatively long period of time forced me to do the work that I wasn't motivated to do while working by myself. Learning to communicate the things I wanted to do, as opposed to merely thinking about them, helped me break through to new insights. We used the Internet in a more structured way than I ever had before. I am 33. I can only imagine how this would have revolutionized my life when I was 18, or 21, etc. This program could really change the life of a young man or woman! I have just been offered a position to teach, and now I feel confident enough about what I want to go ahead and throw myself into this fully. Thanks for all your help! "

"I had been involved in the running of a business for a number of years and found that because of industry changes and my own desire to make a change, I needed some guidance in finding a new direction. ReadyMinds provided just that. By re-evaluating my strengths and interests and having a counselor to speak to who could match my background with potential opportunities, I was able to discover an area that I really hadn't thought about. I am now happily employed in that new area, real-estate, and must say that my ReadyMinds experience pointed me in this satisfying direction."

"I must start by saying that the entire ReadyMinds process is extremely efficient and productive. The General Survey and SDS® were very useful in jumpstarting and personalizing the program. As a result my counselor was well prepared for our first session and understood the dilemmas faced by a career changer. I found her suggestions to be very "real world" and useful for keeping me abreast of my industry of interest. As a person who has been knee deep in the job search process for a while, I was impressed by the additional ideas my counselor suggested. My counselor was able to both suggest relevant reference materials as well as attainable ways for me to enter into a different field. I have shown my resume to other professionals; however, my ReadyMinds Counselor offered the most detailed critique by far (and to top it off, it was a written critique). I feel that this feedback was not only practical and helpful, but will provide me with immediate benefits as I continue to search for a career.

I give RM's Summary Report four stars. I was very grateful that I was able to walk away with a written summary of our sessions and a focused "to do" list that truly reflected my goals. This by far sets ReadyMinds apart from any other services I've explored in the market."

"During our sessions, my counselor disclosed many options to me - alternatives that I had not realized I had. She opened my eyes to more research that I can do when I thought I'd done everything possible. Most importantly, I felt as though my counselor was genuinely interested in my career goals. Telecounseling made me feel comfortable enough to reveal any questions or doubts that I was experiencing. It also made me realize that my personal interests and my career did not have to be mutually exclusive. Insight Into U was the most rewarding phase of the ReadyMinds Program. The "to do" list contained all of the research I needed to do in my personal situation. Each phase of the ReadyMinds Program brought me a step closer to my future career success. I want to thank my counselor from the bottom of my heart for pointing me into the right direction when I needed it the most. I just accepted a job and at this point in my life, I honestly cannot be happier. I will forever be grateful."

My ReadyMinds Counselor helped to pinpoint the type of career path to choose which was further reinforced by the personality trait surveys I had taken. She provided me with a wealth of information as far as related websites and literature. I loved that I was able to keep track of my progress with my counselor through contact on the ReadyMinds website for a year. Thank you!

Being laid off was a horrible experience. I turned to ReadyMinds to look for career direction as well as job search strategies. I was matched with a qualified counselor who really understood my background. She gave me new ideas and websites of where to look for information about different careers. What I liked most was that she reassured me that I am not alone in this tight job market. She reinforced to me that my skill set and especially my personality and street smarts will get me far in the long run! Thank you for making my transition somewhat painless."
