Had a 15-minute conversation with Fiona on what I needed to do to improve my resume and my LinkedIn profile, and what she provided in those minutes was by far the best advice she has provided to me than any other recruiters I have worked with (I can't believe they were certified). Fiona will dissect your profile like a butcher, cut through the nonsense and will find out exactly what you need to improve or elevate your profile. I admire her candor, and her style of walking through the clutter of a resume, and giving me a good hard look at myself to improve.

A lot of time experienced professionals over estimate their professional abilities to win" an "interview" situation just-like-that. I was no exception to that school of thoughts until I met Fiona.Through my subsequent conversation with Fiona

Fiona helped me as a recruiter and coach during a difficult transition in my career. Her coaching helped me to focus my search on my specific strengths and helped me to better present and market myself to potential employers. I'm starting a new position shortly and Fiona's advice was a big asset to help close the opportunity.

According to Ask A Career Expert" I am in the process of a career pivot. After a brief session with Fiona

I have know Fiona for a number of years. Last year we worked together in helping me transition (successfully) to a new role. Over the period that we worked together, Fiona coached me through detailed discussions on the right next role, asking probing questions on what I was looking for and guiding me in the approach for networking, messaging as well as improving my profile and application documents. She has great insight in the market and is able to provide very relevant guidance. If you are willing to put in the work (Fiona will push you), you will see results working with Fiona.

After spending nearly 20 years with one company and suddenly in a period of significant change and facing new choices I looked around for help to position myself in the current market. I had a few immediate needs and a hard time deadline (one being a public speaking engagement at an important industry event) and Fiona was more than willing to work with me to customize a plan that made sense for both of us. Fiona then jumped right in with a no-nonsense approach that really resonated with me and we immediately set off on a very productive month of work. Fiona's coaching was direct and came from a place of expertise and encouragement. I was not only prepared but thanks to Fiona I was in a position to truly optimize that deadline opportunity. I look forward to working with Fiona again and I'm excited about the journey ahead!

Fiona Bryan is someone passionate about supporting others and is excellent at their job it shows...I have liaised with and sought personal direction from several professionals for career coaching and recruitment. However, when I started working with Fiona, I knew I had found my 'go to person' for all of my career questions and support. Over the duration of my career, I have not met anyone sharing her interest in my personal growth/situation. Her dynamic approach is unique.During the time she worked with me one on one, she was tireless in her efforts to assist me in presenting my best self to potential employers. She is a gifted mentor and coach and helped me to identify areas to improve, particularly in my interviewing presentation skills and effective interviewing techniques to help prospective employers see the depth and breadth of my skills and abilities. My last job change was simple and I had in fact, several great offers to choose from.I would strongly recommend anyone searching for new opportunities to consult with Fiona to prepare themselves to ensure their career transitioning is as seamless and successful as it can possibly be!

I love working with Fiona because she is a straight shooter and I respect that about her. I wanted to dig into some career choices to move forward and get some clarity. Like me, you may not enjoy what you hear especially when your professional career is analyzed through a microscope and the gaps are being pointed out. Yet sometimes you need a different perspective because only when you can identify and acknowledge the problem you can work toward a solution to fix it.Fiona went above and beyond from her 4 weeks commitment, she took the initiative to follow up with me and guided me through this process and for that, I am extremely grateful. If you are planning to sign up with Fiona, get ready to work to understand all of your potentials.

I interacted with Fiona when I was interviewing for a new job in the competitive financial services sector. Fiona was always available to spend lots of time with me to walk me through every part of the process and to make sure I was prepared for anything I might encounter in the interviews. She gave me very open and honest feedback about how to refine my story and how to demonstrate how I can solve the employer's problems. Fiona was also available to help guide me through any of the other parts of the interview and hiring process. I'd definitely consider calling on Fiona in the future if I need someone to speak to about planning my next career steps.

I rarely write a review unless I was extremely impressed. Fiona is highly professional, smart, super dedicated, and most importantly humble and cooperative. From our first call she knew what were my weak points and what are the things I needed to quickly fix/improve in my profile. Her accurate analysis has helped me get what I was looking for.Being in the middle of my career, I was sort of undecided about what should be my next career move. Fiona went the extra mile and provided me with everything I needed to work on that allowed me to take another successful step forward.
