     The professional writer Bruce Hillman took dozens of pages of past experience and then organized the relevant information and key points in to a final product that exceeded all expectations. Throughout the process there was never a lack of communication or a shortage of expert advice. I am recommending the Company to my family and friends immediately.



M. Bibiak

     Barbara and Lisa - Wanted to send a quick note to say "thanks!" for assigning Mike Ottensmeyer to my project several weeks ago. I contacted your company via a Web-inquiry form on Jan 17th for assistance putting together a package for a Senior Executive Service (SES)position for which I was applying. Mike was fantastic - easy to work with, constantly encouraging and he delivered an "eye watering" product two days before our scheduled completion date! My SES boss commented on how well written the package was, and I was able to submit the entire package a full day before the deadline. Hats off to your company for having such a talented and professional staff; I will be enthusiastically recommending you to my colleagues. Again, thanks, P.S. I GOT THE INTERVIEW.



Wayne

     Lee, I made the first cut. My application was forwarded to SES for ranking. There are a significant number of applicants, but I made the first cut. I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you! !



CJ

     Elizabeth, Wanted to send you a quick note that the QRB approved my SES package. Thanks!!!



Michael A. Alston

     SES Project: I had an interview on Monday, 2 November --- on Tues the 3rd one of the panel members called 3 of my references. According to the interview panel, the position is blessed by OPM and after the interview they mentioned they would finish their paperwork and forward it to OPM. I think these are promising signs? I'm proud of our work together - if nothing else I got an interview right out of the gate! That's fantastic.



Don

     Fran: I have been qualified and referred on two positions since you did my resume and ECQs. One is a supervisory position in the Judicial Federal Court as the Continuity of Operations Supervisor and the other is a Management Program Analyst. Both of the positions are GS-15.



T.B.

     I cannot say enough about Lisa Becker and the pros at CareerPro Global! I recently used their company to assist in completing my SES application. The SES application process is daunting and formidable, filled with confusing terms and jargon and loaded with stringent requirements. Lisa walked me through it patiently, providing assistance and guidance every step of the way. Her customer focus was second to none; even after the two day session was complete, she continued to provide assistance, reviewing my package and providing support through several more iterations. I lost track of how many times we emailed the package back and forth. She has a complete team of experts with relevant experience in my career field as well as admin support to get the details right like spelling, grammar and format. Just as important, they have experience in the SES process and know what the Executive Review Board is looking for. And they deliver! Not only did they help me make the submission deadline on time but my package was selected as "Best Qualified" and now I am scheduled for an interview. Thanks, CarerPro!



General Jim Rubeor, USAFR

     Lisa..Thanks for helping us accomplish the mission. You are now officially a "mission hacker", a person who gets it done no matter what!



James Rubeor, Maj Gen AF/RE

     Lisa and Scott did a great job at our SES training session. I felt you all prepared me to write a top notch SES package, one that will get me hired. In fact, I have already recommended your company to some folks here in the Pentagon.



Wallace W. Farris, Brig Gen AF/RE
I have used other resume services in the past and this service was by far the most professional and knowledgeable. Pat Duckers did a fantastic job on my federal resume and KSAs, and I was able to edit my federal resume to use for civilian jobs as well. The people who were on the front lines of the phones were honest, sincere and knew what they were talking about and I never felt like a bother. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to retool his or her resume, federal or civilian and I would certainly use their services again.

-S.R. - June 2008

I picked this service off of a web site based on some basic guidelines that I found on the net. I thought it was expensive, but I was under a tight timeline. I had to strongly participate over 5 days, but it was worth the investment. I watched my life and my accomplishments displayed out in front of me like magic. It was a great experience.

MPB

Yes, I would recommend your services to my friends, co-workers, the results I received were very professional, and with those results I made the list for a job I really want. Therefore, I feel my investment was worth the cost.

RM

Diana, I am happy to report that I am in the middle of a security clearance for Immigration. I had a Federal Investigator visit with me last week, and if everything goes smooth...I may start a new job soon! I am very excited and I don't believe I would have this opportunity without your help!

Thank you very much,

Theresa

I am very pleased with CareerPro services in rewriting my professional resume. I posted the resume a few minutes after I received it. I have been invited to four interviews for executive positions and one of which is the second one. I have already recommended three of my friends to CareerPro. The sales person, Johnny Anderson was exceptional. He worked hard to get information from me to produce a professional resume.

Thanks for being here for me at this time in this stage of my career.

EGP

My name is Marvin DeBoest, you help me redo my resume several months ago. I'm working in Kuwait. This past month I went to my first job interview with my new resume. The HR Manager read my resume and hired me on the spot. I finally have a job that's the same line of work I did in the army chemical corp. I want to say thank you and also to Ted Telega for helping me with my resume.

June 2008

I was desperate for help with my resume, with a 1 day deadline that had to be met. From beginning to end everyone was courteous, and understanding of my needs and feeling. Just when I was about to give up the people at CareerPro Global helped me meet my deadline and I know that I could not have done this without them. Special thanks to Patricia Duckers.

Deidra G.

Barbara,
I am presently in the running in the top two for the AFSD-Screening in xxxxx and should hear this week after two interviews. I am also applying for the FSD in xxxx, since it is only 3 hours from my present location. For this job announcement, TSA eliminated one and added a new KSA, Technical Knowledge.

I contacted Lisa this past Tuesday and we worked together to get this new KSA written and sized to fit the new TSA requirements which are to post on line and have them fit within a certain character count. She completed this in under three days start to finish with editing and I am ready to forward my packet to TSA today, the deadline is Monday 16 June. Super Job!

I wanted to also mention that while I was being interviewed by the Regional Federal Security Director, he commented during the interview that my Fed Resume was one of the best he had ever seen and stated, " it was easy to read, informative and very well formatted".

Thought you should know since Lisa seems to have spent the appropriate time ensuring all goes well at screening with the TSA recruitment center and OPM getting certified resumes as well as with hiring officials that like her products.

Thanks and will keep all posted...

ROBERT H. RONGE, COL, GS, WIARNG, Chief of Staff-Army

Barbara, II would highly recommend your company, in fact already have to another person interested in applying for a SES position. I was referred for the position I applied for.

VR, DAW, Assistant Deputy Commander

Hi Barbara, I wanted to thank you for all your help over the last year. Especially with the last minute requests and your personal involvement.

My package was approved by the Board and I have accepted the SES position. I have been in SF for three weeks now and enjoy it tremendously.

Thank you again and I hope you are doing well and have a great weekend.

Sincerely,

Ken Atha

Bruce, I’m so glad you are following-up with me regarding your services. I applied for the Senior Executive Services (SES) Candidacy Development Program. As a result of the Executive Core Qualifications and resume you assisted me with preparing, I received and interview. I am waiting for the result of the interview to see if I was selected into the program. Thank you again, for you assistance, the well prepared resume and ECQs is the reason I received the interview.

Marion Burrows

I called CareerPro Global after looking on the internet for help with an SES package. I was in a time crunch, did not know where to start, and I did not feel I had any of the expertise to be considered for the position but thought I should talk to someone before I decided not to apply. Upon my initial contact I was immediately put at ease. They showed me I not only qualified, that I was a strong contender for the position. They assured me right up front they would do all the work and all I would have to do is answer their questions, provide the background information and RELAX.

True to their word my resume and technical skills were done in an amazing amount of time. The greatest surprise to me was the answers to the ECQs were EXACTLY how I would have answered the questions if I had the time to sit down and write them myself. It is because of their skill, caring and encouragement I made it to the board and was interviewed for the SES. Without them I would never have applied.

Carol Susan Kisthardt, NCIS

These guys really showed me that I had been short changing myself on past resumes. My writer knew all the right questions to ask in order to find every good quality and accomplishment I had to offer. I found a new job with a great team and a huge raise within 4 weeks of posting my resume!

Not only has this service enabled me to improve my pay and work environment it has also given me a push in the right direction. Reviewing where I had been and what I had accomplished gave me a fresh perspective on what I need to accomplish for future advancement. I have gone back to college and I am finishing the degree I started several years ago.

Thank you for the guidance!

Lisa Keeling

I have been selected for the SES position, and approved by the NNSA Executive Review Board (ERB) two weeks ago. I hope to know the final results mid to late June. Thank you.

Mike Connor

As a client of the CareerPro Global I can not emphasize enough the help I received in developing my SES packet. The finish product was indeed a work of art that reflected my true leadership skills as well as my vision as an effective and efficient leader and public administrator.

Lesia A. Reed

To the attention of Johnny and Barbara

My Title 42 application has been completed and submitted. I wish to comment on the performance of Fran Sheridan, the writer you assigned for this task. The bottom line is very easily expressed. It was exactly what I expected and needed and the collaboration was simply perfect. I worked a lot too (in part under her guidance); communication was very easy and always pleasant. The package does look very good to me.

Thank you again,

François Boller, MD, PhD Scientific Review Officer National Institutes of Health

I found the leadership of CareerPro Global to possess integrity in purpose, solid knowledge of the government application process, an understanding of my personal concerns and the decisions I was making in respect to career pursuits. These qualities were important to me and influenced my decision to use their services. The Federal Resume, ECQs, and PTQs that were my final product reflected a significant insight into my 30 year military career, my qualifications for the position I was applying for, and more importantly, my character. As a result, I am very satisfied with my CareerPro Global experience.

Gary Suprick, Ret Colonel U.S. Marines

I received the official offer for the SES Forest Management Director position with the US Forest Service yesterday. My application as you prepared it made it through the QRB without a hitch. So, once again thanks for all your excellent work with my ECQs, resume' and TQs!!

Tom Peterson


     Fran,
Just wanted to let you know I got the job and as of next week will be a member of the Senior Executive Service. It was a long process that included a number of interviews. With all that reviewing there was only a few minor word changes that were suggested as a result of the first review. The package sailed through the second two reviews with out a single comment.

Knowing that I had all my paper work in good order sure helped. Thank you so much for your efforts. I am sure in the days ahead I will berecommending you to others who will be facing similar challenges.



C. Z. Deputy Director,
National Center for Environmental Research

    I definitely will recommend your service to my friends and co-workers. My resume placed me at the top of the list “best qualified candidate” with three agencies. I was "best qualified", interviewed and offered the SES position pending a background investigation. My interview was conducted by a 12 member team, and each one of them told me that they were very impressed with my resume application. Thank you for an excellent job, I am very pleased.
