The Importance of Testimonials

Whether you are a business or a job-seeker, testimonials are important. They are a great endorsement of a brand or a person and add credibility to your proposition.

Don't be afraid to ask for testimonials and try to make it easy for the person who is giving it to try and make it as natural as possible. My best ones have come from text messages or quick emails where people have told me about their success and wanted me to know that I had made a difference. These are the best ones as you can 'extract' a one or two liner from what they have said to endorse you. Always ask their permission of course!!

Here are a few of mine that I am really proud about:

"After helping me update my CV I was inundated with requests for interviews!"

"The standard of service I received was exceptional"

"Christine carefully determines your best attributes and then brings them to the fore. She transformed my cv from a stale list into a stylish outline which more accurately describes who I am and what I can offer"

"Your CV got me an interview with the second largest company in the world!"

"My new CV looks organised and professional and I am currently able to get interviews due to the new look and feel of my CV. This has now given me confidence knowing I'm much closer to getting a job. Christine has helped me towards a more prosperous future"

"Superb!! It's just perfect!"

"Thank you so much for helping me think through my career plans more clearly. And thank you for my amazing CV - it looks fantastic!"

"My old CV had got me constant rejections - after Christine revamped it I sent it back to those companies and they have now asked me to interview! I am delighted with the CV itself - the speed it was produced and the overall professional look"

As always - if I can help you too, don't hesitate to get in touch.

Christine
