Hi Rebecca and team,

Just dropping a note to say that my resume investment well and truly paid off. I did not get the initial job which I applied for (being was a permanent position with my existing employer) My casual status meant I had 17 weeks a year of no pay during semester breaks). Being very disappointed at the time I sat back and took a good look at the place, then decided that the nepotism that existed was unhealthy and I would look for employment elsewhere.

During April I applied for 4 jobs and was successful with all. I then had to make a choice. I am now the Training Coordinator for the (company name removed), and also have picked up part time work for a home based job with another training company marking papers.

Each interview I attended I received a positive comment about the professional content and presentation of my resume.

Thankyou for all your help and good advice.

Kind regards
Angela

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

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.

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.

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.

I recently had a professional resume and cover letter developed by Career Origin.  My experience was certainly a positive one and their expertise, particularly in Resume writing, certainly got the desired results.  From the very first phone call, I felt I had called the "right" people.  I had my first meeting at their office and was impressed with the first draft of my resume.  We then only made minor adjustments before finalising.  I found the staff to be very professional, friendly and easy to deal with.  I would have no hesitation in recommending Career Origin to friends and family.   Lisa Perez Leumeah NSW

Thankyou Rebecca and all the staff at Career Origin for putting together an outstanding resume, which has allowed me to follow my dreams and work overseas.  If it wasn't for your help I wouldn't have had an interview, which led to two job prospects and the opportunity to work in my dream role.

Thank you so much for you assistance.

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,

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 and 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!'

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.
