Angie was a very thorough career coach and customizes discussions and plans for you. I always enjoyed our conversations because I have a lot of takeaway from all of them. She gives really good advice and has a lot of inside/job market info.

My experience with Acacia at Career Benders was outstanding, and I highly recommend her services. After years of attempting to craft an effective resume and unsuccessfully experimenting with various AI tools, I sought professional help. Unlike previous resume writers I've encountered, Acacia took the time to understand my career goals and accomplishments thoroughly.

What sets Career Benders apart is their personalized approach. Acacia carefully assessed my career objectives and highlighted my transferable skills, positioning me for a successful career transition. Her expertise in tailoring resumes for specific career pivots was evident throughout the process.

With only a few job applications submitted, I've secured two interviews.

Overall, the investment is worth every penny!

Acacia was a huge help for me in my career pivot. I completely transitioned sectors after a bit of a much-needed post-teaching sabbatical and found her guidance and advice to be extremely helpful on my job search. The resume she crafted for my use was phenomenal, highlighting my abilities and skills in a way that allowed me to make this transition as smoothly as possible.

Previously, I was applying somewhat willy-nilly to jobs and was quite lost about what I could be qualified to do and what it was I even wanted to do at all. Acacia and Career Benders gave me the structure that I needed on my journey. Can't recommend enough, especially if you're looking to transition from education to something new yet still impactful. I've been at my new job for about a month now and feel like I found an impossibly perfect fit!

Working with Angie was life changing for me. I was doubting my own capabilities, not knowing how my skills and knowledge and experience would help me find a new job. But Angie helped me sort through all that, helped me build a resume and find the right jobs to look for that were catered towards my interests and skill sets, and prepare for the interview process. I highly recommend anyone in a similar boat as me, to work with Angie and her team. With Angie’s knowledge and professional connections I was able to find the right new job for me!

How do I even begin to describe how truly life changing my time with Angie has been!? From my very first call with Angie, I knew she was the expert I needed in my corner to help me make my next career move. My job search before finding Angie felt impossible. When I started working with Angie, she helped me look introspectively and understand my own motivations. She worked with me to help me find a perfect industry that aligns with not only my experience, but also my interests. I landed what I didn't even know was my dream job in record time. Angie's coaching approach is so methodical; I felt beyond supported through every step of the process. Angie is a true expert in her field--I will carry the knowledge and practice the skills she taught me throughout my entire career. Working with Angie is absolutely invaluable!

Working with Angie to succesfully land a new job has been an absolutely fantastic experience. She helped me to understand what I was looking for, supported me through a rough period (thanks to the market, not her resume I should add!) and coached me through multiple intensive interview processes.

Her knowledge and advice got me to within a hair’s breadth of a role that was really punching above my weight and then helped refocus & re-strategise when it didn’t work out. By the end, the challenge was juggling all the interview offers I had!

I’m incredibly excited to start my new job that feels like it’s a perfect fit. A big recommendation from me!

I've been working with Angie for about two years now, thinking about my career direction, how to think about goals and growth opportunities, interview prep and most important in today's job search world – how to create a resume that gets through the algorithm phase of applying. Prior to working with Angie, I was getting rejected all the time for jobs I thought were a perfect match with my skills and experience. The resume redo made a huge difference. The number of bites and interviews went up significantly when I started using her version. If you're looking to get a leg-up on the many other job-seekers out there, I 100% recommend working with their team.

I started working with Angie at a time where I was very confused about where to take my career next (was literally considering quitting my corporate job and going to flight school). She helped to validate what I was feeling and build a strategy to explore different options that I could take my experience and skills next. Angie was so supportive and encouraging through my entire journey. With Angie's help I landed interviews at over 8 major banks. I ultimately secured a role in product management that fit all of my must haves and like to haves. Angie will be very real with you and support you to get what you want. I have already recommended her to friends.
