I couldn't ask for anything more from a career coach. I wanted a career coach who really understood the legal market and the different options that I would have available to me as a mid-career attorney in the Bay Area.  Susanne far exceeded my expectations.  She really listened to me and understood what I was looking for in my career shift, and she gave me very practical guidance and insight based on her deep knowledge of the legal market. I ended up getting a great job, and Susanne helped me every step of the way.

Susanne has been an amazing ally in my somewhat complicated career transition as an attorney.  She encouraged me to dig deep into my intuition to discover what felt like the proper path, and really listened to my wishes.  She then helped me work out concrete next steps, which motivated me to start taking those steps right after our first call together.  Her background in career services makes her an especially insightful career coach. She helped walk me through everything from sorting through my goals for a new career all the way through role-playing preparation for interviews.  I successfully landed a new job, and felt good about the process thanks to Susanne's guidance.

Susanne has helped me with my job search during one of the most difficult times—the COVID-19 pandemic. She has always been patient with listening to my questions and giving me helpful suggestions. She was always responsive when I sent her emails and needed prompt responses to third parties. As a foreigner, it is difficult for me to understand the context and culture background sometimes, and Susanne has been instrumental in this respect too. With her help, I negotiated a great job offer within one month after my engagement with her. I would not have been able to achieve the result without her help. I would highly recommend Susanne to anyone seeking help with job search and career development!

I came to Susanne for help in building my career as a new attorney. I needed someone who had a solid background in professional development and career planning, and Susanne provided so much more. As I navigated confusing and complex career options, Susanne was the voice of reason offering solid, practical tools for figuring it all out. She was not only sensitive to the harsh realities of a tough job market for a new professional, but extremely encouraging for someone who was feeling overwhelmed and aimless. Specifically, Susanne's straightforward approach allowed me to better assess my current employment prospects and appropriate career paths most suitable to my strengths and interests. I was able to really understand and finally determine the direction I wanted to take my career because of Susanne's expertise. I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with her.

I moved to Portland and found myself going to endless job interviews. I was getting close but never would receive an offer. I started to wonder, what am I doing wrong? Working with Susanne was monumental because she offered a fresh perspective. She opened my eyes to so many aspects of the interview process that I hadn't even considered. Susanne is honest, understanding, and incredibly insightful. She greatly improved my interview skills with valuable feedback which I implemented in my upcoming interviews. The changes she recommended clearly made a huge difference because I recently received a great job offer! After 7 months of job searching and countless interviews, my biggest regret is that I didn't contact Susanne sooner! I highly recommend Susanne for anyone looking for insight and improvement on their interview skills.

Working with Susanne as a career coach gave me new tools and a fresh way of approaching my transition to a new job. Her coaching style empowered me to take control of the process and make sure I was my most effective when I landed interviews.  Susanne lets the client guide the topics of the coaching conversations and brings fresh perspectives and honest guidance.  I highly recommend Susanne to anyone looking for an ally and guide when working through job changes or challenges in their career.

I began working with Susanne while in the midst of making a significant change in my legal career.  It was an emotionally challenging and stressful time with many big decisions to be made.  Susanne was invaluable to me as a steady, unbiased, and thoughtful sounding board while I pursued potential opportunities, made decisions and went through the transition of leaving a job that I had held for eight years to start a new job in an entirely different area of the law.  Susanne provided both emotional support and wonderful insights in terms of navigating the practical aspects of negotiating a job offer, handling the departure from my employer gracefully, and managing the transition to a new employer with all the adjustments that entails.  I am very grateful for Susanne’s generous guidance and support and I feel lucky to have found her.  I recommend her very highly.
