Career Upgrader has been awesome! I reached out for a resume review on LinkedIn which is how I met Neil. My position had just been eliminated at my company and I felt it was about time to get someone to evaluate my resume. Neil reached out to me, I could not be more pleased with him! He has been a sounding board, a mentor, a career coach, and a million other things to me over the past six weeks. His recommendations are insightful and extremely helpful. We have worked together to ensure that I am getting what I want out of this partnership in my career. You only get out of something what you put into it. I have read the other reviews and I have not found them to be true at all. Neil has been incredible to me through one of the most difficult times I have faced so far and I cannot say thank you enough!

Disappointing Experience with Career Upgrader I contracted Career Upgrader after being unemployed during the pandemic and having no luck in finding a new job. Career Upgrader sent me a proposal with the details of their services and we had what they call a Clarity Call to ask questions and better understand their services. Unfortunately, the services I received were far from what they said they will provide. Here are some details in regards to my experience: 1. I did not receive the placement services as per the explanation I received prior to purchasing the services. - No regular meetings/calls were scheduled to provide status on the progress and work completed. I only received a few emails with information about LinkedIn connections requests/calls. - Availability to work on the career placement services seemed to be very limited with periods of times being 100% unavailable. - No leads were provided for potential jobs that match my qualifications and career goals. - No informal networking conversations were coordinated to assist with the job search process. - No informational calls were coordinated to discuss potential job fits with local companies. - No proactive communication to check on my job search progress or intent to continue building a professional relationship. - No interviews (informal or formal) with the companies that were told to have existing relationships with Career Upgrader. 2. Coaching sessions were strictly based on pre-existing documents and were not tailored to my career situation. Additional time to ask questions was strictly limited to remaining call time (if any) after the documents were explained. 3. LinkedIn Profile and Executive Resume were not delivered as per the promised dates. Multiple follow- ups were required before receiving them. My resume was not re-written as per the service explanation but re-formatted to match standard ATS. I was looking forward to working with Career Upgrader and having a great experience, specially while going through such difficult times due to the pandemic. It's disappointing and frustrating to pay so much money when you don't have a job, and end up dealing with businesses with such poor services and ethics. I wish I have had seen honest reviews before contracting Career Upgrader, but the ones I found at the time were mostly from entrepreneurs and not real job seekers.

Career Enhancement!!!!! I am a person that believes that the best investment is in one's self and hiring Neil to transform my resume from OK to demonstrating my true ROCKSTAR on paper was the best way to invest in me. He takes your story to help you create a narrative that people can't put down. I highly recommend his services. In an age where you worry about being defrauded, Neil not only did what he said but exceeded all expectations. Worth the PRICE!!!!!!

He Will Be In Your Corner From the first conversation, I knew before he even said it, Neil was "in my corner." Not only has he been a supportive professional, he's been creative, empathetic and really hears me. He gives lots of encouragement, but he's also honest and direct, qualities that are sometimes hard to find. He's been a strong, staunch advocate for me with potential employers and I feel my needs and concerns are truly heard and he's working hard to help me craft a professional life I will love and be proud of.
