....Oh and one thing further, a BIG thanks! I have never used a service like yours before, and I was a little hesitate at first, but you have blown me out of the water, with the presentation, expertise, friendly staff, and great service. Even the after hours chats.

Paul Lucas, Cronulla NSW

Thank you for the resume  package

Thankyou

Tim and Rebecca,

Thanks for all the help and time you put towards my cover letter and selection criteria for the Graduate Leadership Program at my work. The document along with an online aptitude test I completed has ensured my acceptance  into the program. This program has approximately 20 positions out of a pool of 170 and only 3 graduates were accepted from my office. Thanks again. I would not have acheived this without your help. I apologise again that it was such short notice, But even so it was a great result.

Thanks
Nelson York

Thankyou to your team for your assistance with my application for Taronga Zoo.  This is my dream role and it has proven difficult to break into this industry in a Government role due to the competition and limited number of opportunities.  I have made it through the first stage based on my written application.  There were 340 applicants culled down to 152!  I am one of the lucky 152! 

Thanks again for your assistance!

Courtney, NSW

Hi Rebecca,

Just to let you and your team know I got the job at (Council name removed). I start 9th May and at this stage even though it's only temporary for 3 months, I am confident it will lead to more opportunities in the future. Anyway, I achieved my goal of getting away from shift work and back into a routine.

So thank you and I'll be in touch.

Kind Regards, Trish

Moorebank, NSW

I would rate the services and professionalism displayed and delivered by all Career Origin staff as 10/10!

In December 2010 I had a professional resume and selection criteria developed.  Rebecca was very helpful and understood my requirements. She asked the right questions to obtain the right answers.  Victoria was also very polite, cooperative, patient and lovely phone manner.  I have referred one customer already and very happy to refer more. Could you please send me some business cards so that I can pass them on to my customers.

My resume now looks professional and my skills and experience are now formalised. Rebecca worked well under pressure as she did not have a lot of notice for my resume or selection criteria. I now have confidence to send my resume to any future employer.

Denise - South Windsor, NSW

Dear Rebecca and team,

I wish to sincerely thank you for all the great work.  What I have invested in your services has paid off and will continue to do so for many years to come.  After a long career within the telecommunications industry, I was faced with redundancy, which was also an opportunity to make a change.  I requested your expertise in preparing a professional resume and Government selection criteria for a much sought after management level position with RailCorp.  I was wrapped when I reached interview stage and engaged your services for Interview Coaching.  Now, 6 weeks later, I have successfully been appointed the role and cannot thank you enough!  All the great work from your team and the one-on-one coaching with you, Rebecca, has definately paid off.  I have already referred your services to many family members, friends and colleagues.

Ante Mocan, Illawong NSW

Dear Rebecca,

I would like to say a big thank you to all of you guys and your team.  I have had a total of 6 Interviews during the past 2 months and 4 of them have been in Goverment hospitals. Due to your great work in writing my resume, selection criteria and the interview coaching, I have now successfully gained a role in the Food Service Department in Concord Hospital.  My family was so happy with the outcome and they are also thanking you for the service you have provided. From the 50 applicants, 11 candidates were interviewed and only 1 got the job and I am the one who got it!  I will be starting work this coming Monday.  Thank you very much for providing the best service.  I was so pleased with the great job that you have done.

Jayson Magbanua - Quakers Hill, NSW

Dear Bec and Team,

I just received a call from the Appeal Board who told me I won and will retain my position as Supervisor.  Thank you for including me in your success stories.  You haved played a big part in my success for the past 3 years.  If it wasn't for your help in providing professional documents and career advice, I would not have had a clue where to start.  So thank you so very much for your help and I will tell others of your service.

Lele Saufoi - Leumeah, NSW
 

Thankyou to the Career Origin team.  The Government application you developed for me was successful!  I start my new job in three weeks!

Amanda Guile - Karawana, NSW

The staff were very professional and delivered way more than expected!

Karen Wood - Elderslie, NSW

I communicated mostly with Rebecca to develop my selection criteria.  It was difficult for me to understand exactly how you would extract and interpret my examples, yet this was achieved.  I would really like to thank Rebecca for her amazing effort. Once we got into the swing of things my resume and selection criteria fell into place with ease and within the tight timeframes.

Joanne Clark - Claremont Meadows, NSW

Thankyou Rebecca and the team for updating my resume for me.  I was successful in securing a role that will start the wheels in motion on my journey to working in the environmental sector.

Once again, thank you!

Melisa Portelli - Quakers Hill, NSW

I just wanted to tell you the GOOD NEWS! I got the job i am applying for (internally) at (Government Department name removed)!

After 6+ weeks of waiting, I finally got a positive result.  Thanks so much again to you and your team for assisting me with my application. Thank you to Belinda as well for helping me practice with the interview process.

JF - Roselands, NSW

Thankyou for the effort your team put into my recent application for a Local Council position.  I didnt have a clue where to start and not only did you prepare a great application, I was successful in gaining an interview out of 62 applicants.  A result I would not have achieved if it werent for your assistance. 

Thanks again!

Gian Dal Bianco - St Helens Park, NSW

Hi Rebecca and Staff,

Just thought I would tell you thankyou for all your hard work. I finally got work with the National Trust as a Bush Regenerator, which is exactly in line with my chosen career path. I just wanted to say it was so nice to have my professional resume in front of my interviewer and feeling very proud.

Sandra Bullen - Campbelltown, NSW

I would highly recommend the work of Rebecca and staff at Career Origin. After many months of applying for jobs using my own resume with little or no response from the prospective employer, I turned to Career Origin for help. From the moment I received the first copy of my resume I started to reapply for work. Before I used the new resume I had not been selected for an interview for any job but now with the Career Origin resume I have applied for about six positions and have been contacted for interview on three to four of these applications. Once again I have the deepest respect for Career Origin and the professional way they have arranged my resume to make it work for me.

Sandra Bullen - Campbelltown, NSW

Dear Rebecca and staff

Thankyou for all the hard work and support over the past couple of years in setting up my resume and government criteria, each time you have successfully gained me a government interview. All thanks, as I am now employed as a public servant. I must say I will be certainly recommending your services as they were done in a professional manner. After the first interview I came to you wondering where I went wrong. After discussing the matter I agreed to one of your coaching sessions which I felt was the key to being successful for this position and gave me such confidence. Did you know there were over 100 applicants and only 1 position, which is now mine. I have learnt so much from your company and would be more than happy to recommend in the future. My family also thanks you and your team for the support and caring phone calls. My wife said that she felt I was a valued client, not just a statistic. Regards,

Kevin Woods - Seven Hills, NSW

Thankyou Rebecca for your assistance with my most recent Government application. I was successfully in securing a role as Technical Officer with the Department of Housing and have been busy working in this role for three months now. I have referred many family members and friends.

Dennis May - Holsworthy, NSW

The resume developed by Career Origin was integral my success in landing a superb new job as Clinical Trial Coordinator following my big move from Sydney to Newcastle. I love my new job and can't thank you enough!

Yvonne Harrower - Raymond Terrace, NSW

Hi Rebecca ,

I would like to thank you for your help in preparing my Resume. The job that I applied for was completely out of my field but with your ideas and knowledge I was successful in obtaining the desired role.  It is the most satisfying job that I have had. I would also like to thank you on your prompt replies to my many questions. I would not hesitate recommending Career Origin to assist with your job applications.

Tony Costa - Miranda NSW

I hope when my opportunity comes up and I am successful in the application process that yourself and your team will have played an integral role in my success and feel proud of all the achievements we made together. Many many thanks to your team. Thanks Again Rebecca.

Matthew Franklin - ENGADINE, NSW

I recently came across a Government job that I wanted to apply for. While researching and investigating how to address a 'Selection Criteria' I came across Career Origin. I can not speak highly enough of the services this company provides. They systematically went through the selection criteria, assisting me through consultation and years of experience in developing a well thought out and detailed 'Claim for the Position', updated my resume to reflect all the experience and skills that I had an even provided me with excellent interview techniques through workshops and personal coaching. The service was just so helpful and very professional. I am happy to recommend any of the services this company provides to anyone needing assistance to land that new job!

Helen Boulais - HARRINGTON PARK, NSW

Approximately 2 years ago I found myself unexpectedly unemployed. I had moved towards the Southern Highlands and therefore career opportunities were limited. I gained employment on a casual basis at a local service station which helped to pay the bills and fill in the gaps in my career path. I decided that I needed to rejoin the workforce on a full time basis and had applied for a position with a government agency and failed to meet their selection criteria. I had also applied for a non government job and again failed, so my confidence began to slide, as I felt unemployable and depressed. I was hitting rock bottom, with jobs getting tighter and lots of people applying for work, the competition became fierce.

My life experiences are quite diverse and my career has been noting short of interesting; however I didn't have the experience of writing letters and applications. I then found Rebecca and employed her assistance and expertise to apply for three government positions. To my absolute delight I gained an interview for all three applications and was offered a position with one. Rebecca gave me back my self esteem and confidence. She gave me choices which at one stage I felt I no longer had. I have recently applied for another position and believe that with Rebecca's help, I will have a much better chance of getting to the interview phase. Sometimes you just need a little (or a lot) of help. We all have experience either from work or life that have given us skills to be able to undertake a variety of jobs, however, I would always reccomend using the professionals at Career Origin to help sell those attributes. Rebecca did that for me and she can do it for you too.

Thanks Rebecca, your help and guidance is as always appreciated. My career prospects are much brighter due to you.

Rose Maros, Couridjah, NSW

Dear Rebecca,
I am writing to thank you for the resume and selection criteria that you did for me recently for a position that I was seeking at (Council name removed). Thought you might like to know that I reached the final 20 out of 280 applicants!! This was a great surprise as I have not worked in ten years due to raising a family and was a bit unsure if they would even consider me. The Contract Officer at Council informed me that both the resume and selection criteria was of exceptional standard and highlighted my skills and attributes very well and urged me to apply again if another position were to become avaliable as they were extremely impressed. I would not have made it that far without your diligence and professional manner and would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone needing help. I know I will be back again. Once again, a very big thank you to you and the girls in the office.

Tina Barone, Currans Hill, NSW

Dear Rebecca,
I would like to thank you very much. I am very happy with the cover letter, resume, and both selection criteria's you prepared for my application @ (Council name removed). I then participated in your 'Interview Coaching Workshop' and 'Interview Coaching One-on-One' in your office which assisted me greatly for the inteview. I have reached interview stage and will keep you updated on my progress.
Regards.

Savina Sharma, Ingleburn, NSW

Hi Rebecca.

Guess who has done well at an interview and been offered a role with (Govt Dep removed)..........Dawn E Carr.

Due to commence Monday 19th May and will be in Orientation for the first 2 days and then into the role.

Many thanks for your support and expert assistance to get me to an interview. I can now enrol and obtain Certificate VI Training and Assessment and finally get myself a career instead of being the jack of all trades and master of none.

There will be heaps to learn and lots of self improvement.

I would recommend your services to those like me who are time poor when addressing the selection criteria for government roles. The best thing I have done for myself the past 10 years has been contacting Career Origin (Pro Resumes).

Many thanks and kindest regards.

Dawn E Carr, Petersham, NSW

Raghida Jaber, NSW

Thank you for your assistance with my application just prior to Christmas. I was one of 50 selected for an interview out of 550 applicants. As per the application word restriction, you only had 50 words for 3 of the questions and you did it. I then attended a group interview and a 3 panel interview and was successful in gaining a position. Thanks again.

Hi Rebecca,
I would like to thank you for your help in preparing my resume and selection criteria. The job that I applied for was completely out of my field but with your ideas and knowledge I was successful in obtaining a position with the Benevolent Society. My position incorporates picking up elderly clients and transporting them to our Cottage at Bexley where we organise activities including balloon tennis, magnetic darts, ten pin bowling with a soft ball and pins, bingo, singalongs, outings, BBQ's and much more. It is the most satisfying job that I have ever had. I would also like to thank you on your prompt replies to my many questions. I would not hesitate in recommending Career Origin to anyone.

Sharon Zunic, Currans Hill, NSW

I would like to inform you that the application you prepared was very impressive. As you were aware this role was advertised for internal applicants only but I was told about this by a friend. I got a phone call regarding the position; and the Manager said "I read your application again and again and I couldn't find out where you stated that you have been working for us. I wish you had as your application was perfect". The Manager wanted to interview me! Once again, thank you. I will need your help again very, very soon. Thank you and best regards.

Danny, NSW

Never would I have expected to see myself presented on paper in such a professional manner. I found it hard to believe it was me, but when reading through my resume, I realised, that yes, I had acheived everything. Thanks again for a great document and a huge confidence boost.
