"I have clarity on my path! The primary benefit was putting structure to the networking process. This would be beneficial for people who are looking for a structured approach to the job discovery and search process."

"The best part was the interactive coaching, makes you have an understanding of current situation and goals. Gave me confidence knowing what I want to pursue."

"I personally think our conversation opened the door to me thinking about a move into education / being open to a move into education. I often think about you as people ask me how I approached this career transition - you were really the first person to push me to focus on what *I* wanted to do, rather than using it as a relative tiebreaker factor. "

"...direction about how to find the most interesting and compelling work for myself...the platform makes the confusing, open-ended process of career exploration much clearer and manageable."

"I was hoping for guidance on how to make the correct decision about my next career move. I was unhappy in my current position feeling unchallenged and unmotivated; I knew a change needed to be initiated. Prior to the discussion, I was not sure what direction I wanted to take. Through conversation, we were able to clarify my career goals and aspirations. One thing I learned through this process was: if you want a certain industry, why remain complacent? Go for it now. So, that is just what I did. With the motivation from our conversation, I applied to two opportunities that fell in the realm of what space I wanted to be in. As the following two weeks went by, I had multiple interviews for both positions. Two weeks later, I had offers from both positions. I was ecstatic. Per the guidance I received, I was able to leverage those offers against each other to maximize my salary, position and benefits. I am grateful I took the chance to do this because it allowed me to express my desires for career growth that I hadn't even fully shared with myself. Now I can say I am very excited to be moving into a new role which puts me on my path to success."

"The best part about the WOKEN process was the guidance/support. I didn't have to think about what was next."

"I love your follow up strategy. It keeps me focused and prepared."

"I’m so grateful to have worked with my coach at WOKEN. She is knowledgeable, responsive, and overall a great coach - she knows when to support, when to push a little harder, and how to help her clients get out of their own way. I can’t recommend her highly enough."

"The questionnaire is really helpful to get me started thinking about what kind of interests I have and where my skills are. It was helpful to research industries and to give me a program to get started and figure out how to transition to different jobs and verify what I actually want to do for certain jobs. The surveys in the beginning were really helpful. I like the call prep - the one that give a quick overview. I also like the cover letter and resume review."

"I would recommend WOKEN to anyone who wants to spend a bit of time really considering the best career path before diving head-first into the job search. As a mid-career professional, I was not sure that I needed career exploration, but I got a lot of value out of this step. Without this service, I know I would have wasted a lot of time applying to roles that were not a great fit for me. Having the confidence to approach the process with patience allowed me to land not just a job, but a great job that feels perfectly suited to me."
