A Lack of Clarity Can Stunt Your Career Growth and Advancement

Why is clarity so important to your career?

In this video, I’m sharing about clarity and also giving you a few questions you can ask to help you find clarity if you need it.

Resources to help you gain clarity in your career

The Reach Personal Branding Survey is also a great resource for helping you figure out exactly what others see as your strengths and brand.

Here’s an article I wrote at the beginning of the year that include 12 resume writing tips. Several are focused on gaining clarity, direction and vision for your career and your resume.

This article from The Muse will help inspire you if you’re feeling STUCK in your career.

Hi, I’m Jessica. I started this company back in 2008 after more than a decade directing hiring practices at Fortune 500 companies.

What started as a side hustle (before that was even a word!) helping friends of friends with their resumes has now grown into a company that serves hundreds of happy clients a year. But the personal touch? I’ve kept that.

You might have seen me featured as a resume expert in publications like Forbes, Fast Company, and Fortune. And in 2020, I was honored to be named as a LinkedIn Top Voice of the year!

I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to help you find your next perfect-fit position!
