"I was introduced to my career coach and WOKEN when I was starting to think seriously about leaving my teaching career. I had realized that teaching was not a career where my strengths could be best utilized, but I didn't know what else I could do with my degree. Through the WOKEN process, I was able to deep dive into finding my strengths and interests. As I continued the process, I felt more and more confident that I could find a way out of my career and into something that I loved. After taking the process at my own pace, I landed a job that I am SO excited to get started in! I don't think I could have confidently made this huge career change without the guidance of the WOKEN team and process. I would highly recommend WOKEN to anyone still figuring out where they belong in the work force."

"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."

"The assessment was hard but really made me think!!!!"

"I think this platform is incredible for professionals (and/or college students) who are struggling to put together an action plan towards having a more satisfying career."

"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."

"The accountability, direction, and motivation from my career coach. And also, really taking the time to reflect on what I have done, what my strengths, weaknesses, and what I can do, through the platform."

"I am just ending week 3 in my new position and I wanted to reach out and say thank you so much for all your help in positioning myself to take on a new direction in my career, and all the research on the WOKEN platform that helped me get into an industry that I'm super excited about. I can't thank you enough for all your help in preparation. I will absolutely be letting my friends and colleagues know about your platform, should they feel the same way I did about the job search before finding you. :)"

"Everything I have done so far has been valuable. Thank you!! I think this is a really great platform. Thank you for making me take a step back and trust the process!! "

"I started using WOKEN at a time in my professional life when I was very direction-less. I was confused and unsure. I had been in a role that was not a good fit for me and what I wanted to do, but I felt stuck and out-of-control as to how and when to make a change. The biggest difference after using the WOKEN platform is a mindset change. My coach's confidence rubbed off on me, really just because I feel prepared now. I feel informed. I feel like I am in control now and that naturally lowers anyone's anxiety. What was the biggest benefit for me was not just keeping myself accountable, but USING the platform's tools to make things easier for me. Tracking who I wanted to network with, which companies I wanted to target, notes from networking calls, as well as questions I wanted to ask. It acted as a central hub to keep myself organized through what I assumed initially would be a very chaotic process. And practically, the direction in updating my resume was SO valuable! ...Who should use WOKEN? Everyone. People who naturally have networking and "career-building" personalities would probably thrive with the platform, but people like myself who find professional networking more challenging would benefit immensely from the guidance the platform provides. It's not magic and it's not EASY. It takes a lot of work, just like anything. But it is guidance. It is specific direction. It is not vague or ambiguous. It is a toolbox for anyone confused or unsure about their next professional move."
