Landed Job as Assistant Management Analyst

“Good morning Ms. Adams,

“I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate Peggi Bass and what she meant to me in my job search.  Before I contacted Career Pro Global, I had called many other companies with no success in getting help with my resume.  Either the companies were too expensive or the folks on the other end of the phone were rude and unresponsive.

“At the time I called, I was very desperate. I had worked in one office for eleven years and had reached job burnout.  I loved the agency that I worked for but I was just ready for a change.  I was almost at the point where I was just ready to put in my two weeks notice.  I had been applying for jobs but had not been getting many bites from the Federal Government, which is where I wanted to stay since I have twenty four years invested with them.

“As soon as me and Peggi started communicating about my resume, everything started clicking right away.  She assured me with my education and valuable experience, combined with the resume she was building, I would have a better than average chance to get a new job.  Peggi was quick, efficient, caring, very detailed and kept the lines of communication open during the whole process.  She made me feel like I had known her for years.

“Once the resume was done, I posted it on USA Jobs, Monster, Career Builder and other job sites.  I started getting hits immediately for interviews and I was so excited.  Peggi had geared my resume towards a Management Analyst job, which is what I wanted and my education, skills and experience fit that career path.  One day I saw an Assistant Management Analyst position posted at my agency and applied..  It was the first job I had applied for since the resume was done.  I immediately got the interview and eventually got the job.  The folks that interviewed me loved my resume and wanted to know who did it and can they take some ideas from it themselves.  It was awesome.

“I am now at my new job as an Assistant Management Analyst with promotion potential to a Management Analyst and it goes two grades beyond my previous job’s max.  I feel like a completely new person and my career has been revived.  I owe it all to Peggi and Career Pro Global.

“Thank you so much Barbara, Peggi and the rest of the team at Career Pro!

Edward R.”

 

CareerPro Global Assists Client Earn Best Qualified for the CDP

“ Just wanted to check in and share with you an update on my DHS CDP application. My application met the qualifications; and has been forwarded to the next phase of assessment where it will be reviewed and rated by a panel of senior executives. There were over 2,200 applicants, which is why the HR stated is taking some time to complete the assessment. Results are expected soon.  I am preparing now for the interview, just in case and will touch base with you in the next 2 to 3 weeks.

“Again, thank you so much for your outstanding work on my application.

“ D. G.”
