Client Stories

I have been helping people with their job searches since 2009.  I customize my approach to each person.  Some people need help writing their resumes. Others need insight into the job search process. I wanted to spotlight my client stories in their own words.

Leadership Communications Director | Senior Executive Support for Catholic Healthcare Ministry | Author

I led communications for a Catholic Charities agency for 14 years, through four CEO regime changes. When the new CEO told me about possible budget cuts that would eliminate either my job or my staff, I was compelled to begin my job search. Because of Chris' consistent help, I didn't have to start at ground zero—she had always kept me up to date with her expert advice for letters, resumes, LinkedIn and more. In no time, I was able to apply for a job that seemed to be a perfect fit for me. 

 

When Chris learns you're searching for a new career, the "high school cheerleader" in her kicks in. She immediately helps you navigate the interview process. Chris became my coach and consultant, helping me interpret an interview process that I had been removed from for nearly 15 years. She reminded me it's a two-way conversation; I needed to ask the right questions to ensure the job and culture were a fit for me. She also explained how they were recruiting me and "selling" their great place to work.

 

On a daily basis, Chris made herself available for my calls and texts. She answered my questions and reassured me along the way. Eight interviews and nearly two months later, I got the job and feel so blessed to achieve impactful career change. If you are gearing up to find your perfect job, my advice would be to make sure Chris Scherting is on your team.

I had been in the same role for 10 years and the environment had become toxic. As a woman in my 60s, I was concerned about ageism in the recruiting process but Chris assured me that recruiters would value my skills and background. 

 

Chris’s support was invaluable from start to finish. She helped me with both my resume and cover letter. She coached me on how to prepare for interviews and what to expect. She helped me figure out how to compare salary and benefits. Due to Chris's coaching, I felt very much at ease and confident during the interview process...more than I had in any other interview I have done. 

 

I called and texted regularly and she was always there to help. I ended up finding my dream job with a substantial increase in salary. I am extremely happy in my new position. I highly recommend Chris as a job and career coach.

I started working with Chris in college searching for an internship. She helped make my retail and restaurant experience directly relate to marketing jobs. Then she helped me with the interview process after graduation to find my first marketing position. And most recently she helped me update my resume and go through a job search to move on to my current role.

 

I found it very stressful to look for a job while employed full-time. At one point I sent Chris an urgent SOS text while she was on vacation and she still made herself available to answer questions. I was worried about potentially receiving two offers and how to navigate those conversations. Chris was very reassuring and gave excellent advice on how to handle these situations.  

 

Now, I am in a job that I love! I have learned a lot from Chris and have actually helped several friends with their resumes and cover letters.
