"Fiona was instrumental in igniting my HR career after I had initially approached her for support while pursuing a different career path. While many other specialists had suggested that i didn't have the required skills and attributes to be successful in HR, Fiona took a different view and instantly recognised some transferable skills that had been previously overlooked. During our interaction, Fiona carefully and skilfully drew out hidden abilities that were transferable to a career in HR. Fiona's ability to see past the CV is remarkable and is a talent that not many people possess, which is one of the many reasons why she has been so successful with coaching and guiding individuals for many years. At no point during our time together did I feel, anything other than well supported, encouraged and superbly guided to ensure that I was able to produce CV which truly represented my HR skills and experience. With polished CV in hand, ready and keen to apply for my first roles in HR, Fiona provided first class coaching for impending interviews, guiding me through potential interview questions and scenarios. Fiona has a knack of making you feel at ease, whether role playing interview techniques or providing feedback post interview, to ensure next interview readiness. I have only thanks and praise for Fiona, who recognised a budding HR professional many years ago and who was the foundation of the senior professional I am today. Not only did I receive first class coaching, mentoring and support, I also gained a long term friend in the process. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Fiona in the future.

When I met with Fiona I was lacking in confidence to take a step into a different role and sector, but Fiona put me at ease and helped me realise what practical experience I actually had. Fiona gave me huge pointers in regards to my CV. I can’t thank Fiona enough for all of the help and support she has given me since we met.

Fiona's supportive and dedicated approach to helping candidates seeking new roles is really impressive. When she commits to working with you she really means it - and she really puts in the effort to help. Fiona provides honesty and candour in her advice, she tells you what you need to hear rather than what you think you want to hear - her very extensive experience always enables her to do this in a careful, supportive and constructive way. Fiona will help you focus with confidence on what you can aspire-to and to sort out the valuable from the mass. Fiona has a tremendous work ethic. She will work with you to create the plan of action to get you where you need to be. Quite rightly - she expects you to put in the effort too. I recommend Fiona very highly to support you in advancing your career.

Sometimes you meet people who are good at their job but Fiona is more than good - she is amazing. Her guidance, professional support and mentoring helped me to land on my dream role. .

After deciding to take redundancy after 24 years continuous service, hence no CV, I needed help and lots of it. I contacted Fiona after reading her Linkedin page and met her for a coffee. I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I've made. A few days later, I not only had an amazing CV but a friend. Fiona made me quickly realise I was 'under selling' myself. Fiona truly is inspirational!!! She has a special talent, the ability to build self confidence and recognise 'worth'. Things I've achieved and thought nothing of, she shouted about. I now have an incredible CV that I'm proud of so when I do get around to posting it, I am confident it won't be put to the bottom of the pile. So everyone, the moral of this post is! If you are doubting yourself and your CV, contact Fiona, you will not be disappointed, you'll simply feel you can 'conquer the world'.

Fiona helped me communicate my experience in a way that would be understood by a wider audience than where I had initially been looking. Fiona is exactly the sort of person you want on side when searching for a role, she just gets it! I strongly recommend Fiona over and above anyone I have worked with thus far. She is a true leader in the industry and I feel very lucky to have been able to receive her expert advice and obtain a role that I am very happy in.

I’m so grateful to Fiona for the support I received, which played a huge part in one of the biggest changes in my personal and professional life. With Fiona's guidance, I was able to successfully make the transition from retail operations and people management into a full HR role – something I wouldn’t have thought possible on my own. Fiona's CV support and interview coaching gave me the tools and confidence I needed to take that step, and you helped me recognise the value of my experience and how to present it in the right way. I would wholeheartedly recommend Fiona to anyone considering a career change, and to companies looking to offer meaningful outplacement support to their employees. The impact has been life-changing, and I’ll always be thankful for the role she played in helping me move forward.
