Carolyn Friedman has been an invaluable source of knowledge and guidance throughout the start of my career. She is patient and poised in her advice. You can tell she is giving guidance based on your situation; no canned responses here. She takes the time to listen to any questions you may have and address them, but she also helps guide you to your own conclusions. This is a tactic she uses wisely as it helps you grow and navigate your own career path. Her advice and methods have helped shape me into a more business savvy individual. Coming from a predominantly blue-collar background, I often struggled to navigate an office setting and understand what is standard. Through Carolyn's advice I feel as though I've been able to build a method of communication that is clear and effective while staying true to who I am as a person. Whether you are just starting off on your career, looking to make a lateral move, or feel you can benefit from tactful career guidance, I believe you'd find her services effective. She is not only professional and intelligent but a kind and genuine person. Thank you for all of your help!

Carolyn has been such an amazing help to me, words can't even describe how much she has guided me through the last few months. Carolyn put in hours of work to help me redo my whole resume. She sat with me once a week and took her time to find every detail that needed to be explored and noted from my jobs and life experiences. Carolyn broke down so many different life obstacles for me and taught me to look at things from a different perspective. I can confidently say I left every meeting feeling recharged and motivated to work towards my goals. Her passion for her work shows in her personality and attention to detail. Not only does she truly love what she does, but also provides amazing insight on how to write a resume that employers want to read.  I can't speak highly enough about Carolyn, she truly changed my job application process along with uplifting my spirits through frustrating times in my life. Thank you, Carolyn, for your patience and help over the last few months, it has meant so much to me to get to work with you!

Mrs. Friedman’s assistance has been invaluable in my launch into the working world! She helped me make a good impression and receive an internship with the Federal Reserve Board the summer of my junior year. When I was looking at applying at places for my first job, I reached out to Mrs. Friedman immediately. She knew exactly how to finesse and tweak the resume for each individual position I applied to. I was able to get a great position with a private government contractor, while some of my classmates were left stressed and in limbo. The times of a single mass distributed resume are completely dead. Now each position requires a finely tuned individual resume and cover letter. The prospect of applying to multiple positions while also finishing off a degree and maintaining grades is daunting. My anxiety about the whole situation was preventing me from even putting pen to paper. Mrs. Friedman makes the entire process understandable and infinitely less intimidating. If I ever have to apply to another position or even graduate school my first step will be reaching out to Mrs. Friedman.
