"Candace:

This is the best P of E statement I have ever read!! Do not change a thing. I absolutely love it! I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this.

Thanks a bunch! ''

"Candace:

Hello! You prepared my administrative resume' last year and it just paid off----big! I am a teacher that has been searching for an administrative position for the past two years. I faxed my resume' (and philosophy of education statement) to the potential employer and I was called for an interview the next day. They were obviously impressed by my credentials and I have YOU to thank for making me sound so good! I didn't have the opportunity to try your interview coaching, but I always read your newsletters and tips for interviewing. These certainly paid off as I had no trouble answering any of their questions and I even answered several before they were asked! I had a 2.5 hour interview and received a tour of the building after the interview and a personal call from the Superintendent four days later.

Thank you so much, Candace, for your expertise. Without your writing skills in my corner, I would never have landed this interview and subsequently, this job!

You're the best!"

"Candace-

I just wanted to email you and let you know that I GOT A JOB with the district I wanted!!! They even hired me over the phone due to me being out of the State. I can't believe it! Thank you for all of your hard work and support. I truly believe that my resume and cover letter along with the practice interview really helped land me the job!

Thanks!"

S. M.
 

"Candace,

Thank you for your update on my resume from last year. I always get compliments on my resume and cover letter. I have landed a better job closer to my home for the upcoming school year! Thank you for all your help. I have just printed out some information from your website to pass onto two of my teacher friends that wanted to know how I did my resume! I always have friends that after seeing my resume want to copy its format and if I feel like sharing my secret I pass on your information.

Thanks again."

"Hi Candace!!!

It's taken quite a while but I'm happy to say I was offered the position at XXX school district and will be starting in a couple of weeks.

Thank you again for all of your help. During my final interview I was asked how I prepared for my interview and I was happy to say that I had your assistance as an Interview Coach. I have also recommended you to a few of my friends because you were so helpful.

Thanks again,"

D. S.
 

"Hi Candace,

I wanted to follow up with you. Since the Spring, I have secured a job in an amazing district exactly where I wanted to be. I am a Kindergarten teacher and cannot wait to begin my career as an educator. I know your hard work on both my resume and cover letter was instrumental in securing my job. I received so many compliments from administrators telling me how my resume was the best they had ever seen. That truly helped me stand out from the pack. Thanks a million!

Sincerely,"

S.C.
 

"Hi Candace,

I wanted to catch you up on the latest. I start my new teaching position in XXX next Monday.

I have been interviewing for the past 3 weeks and boy oh boy that was tougher than putting the resume together. I can't emphasize enough...the importance of being well prepared in that stage of applying for a teaching job!!

One can be very knowledgeable in their field but to verbalize it professionally and express your thoughts is one of the keys things that will land that position.

But you know that already!!

I just wanted to bring home that point again. The interview can make or break you. I wish I had more experience and practice in that part of the job search.

Well again thank you.....to you and your great staff for all your help.

Sincerely,"

J. C.
 

"Candace,

I just wanted to follow up to let you know that I got a teaching job...AND, I got the job that I wanted!

Right after I applied for two different teaching jobs with the cover letter and resume that you produced for me, I received two interviews...and was offered a second interview for first job (which I subsequently turned down) and a teaching position on the spot for the other!

Thank you again for all your help; I am so pleased to be beginning my teaching career with the job that I was hoping for.

Best wishes for continued success,"

S. E.
 

"Dear Candace,

Thank you very much for all your time and effort. I am very pleased with the resume. You are a wonderful writer. I will keep you in mind for the future. It was nice speaking with you.

Sincerely, "

A. K.
 

"Thank you very much. I am very pleased with the quality of the resume and how quickly it came together. This is tremendous. Thanks!"

"You guys are great. Thanks, Candace and I will continue to let everyone know how happy I am with what you were able to do for me.

Cheers,"

"Candace,

I just got a position to teach biology to 10th graders at an underprivileged high school in XXXXXXX. That is exactly what I wanted and I am very happy and excited about it. My resume masterfully crafted by you helped me tremendously. I want to thank you again.

Take Care "

"Hi Candace,

I just had an hour interview coaching with you last Friday morning. I just wanted to write and let you know the interview went very well. She also loved my resume that I received from you. I am now taking the next step in the interview processes where I will interview with the individual schools and their principals. I plan on purchasing another one of your interview packages for these up coming interviews because it was so beneficial. Thank you again for all your help and I'm sure you'll be hearing from me again very soon. "

R. B.
 

"I know it's been a while. I've been really busy. I finished my visual arts course last week and also started getting calls for interviews last week too. Because of the Board/Union negotiations, the principals were only allowed to start making calls last Wednesday., so I got calls for 3 interviews on Wednesday., went for the first one on Thursday afternoon, 2 more on Friday; had 4 booked for XXX but accepted a job offer after the first one on Monday and cancelled the other 3.

So, basically, I got a job with the XXXXX.. It was the school at the top of my list after the interview. Intermediate school, grades 7-8, French, not too far from home. I was a bit overwhelmed by the whole process but, let me tell you, after the first 2 interviews you don't really care as much anymore (still presenting yourself very professionally, of course). I am very happy with my choice so far.

I want to thank you for all your help and support; and will definitely be in touch with you throughout other important steps of my teaching career. Thanks again and have a great summer."

"Hi Candace,

I wanted to let you know that after a few months of searching (April-July) I landed a 3rd grade job in the metropolitan area I was looking. One principal at a job fair asked me if I had had my resume professionally done as he was so impressed with it, and said that he had never seen one like it before.

Thank you for your help and expertise. Great documents gave me the confidence to put myself out there, especially during the "waiting" period."
