Here are a few quotes from coaching clients:
“A sincere thanks to Marty Gilbert, for leading NSENG and particularly for his job search coaching services. My situation for a job search was sudden and unexpected so I reached out to Marty and I’m glad I did. With his guidance and hands-on efforts, he challenged my thought process and completely reworked my resume and email communications so that they more effectively communicated my sills and value to prospective employers. He also prepped me for interviews that helped me come across more skilled, confident and proactive.”
“I had been using outplacement services and getting nowhere. Marty’s MARKETING approach to job search made a huge difference– it enhanced my value proposition and he taught me ways to create greater visibility with the ‘hidden job market’ which is how I landed my subsequent job.”
“Marty delivers highly personalized and comprehensive 1:1 coaching. He quickly addressed my key objectives by unearthing my most marketable skills and suggesting process improvements. In addition to his tailored recommendations, I learned a wealth of best practices that would be impossible to quantify here. I highly recommend NSENG and Marty’s coaching services to any executive conducting a search.”
“I am an accomplished national salesperson, but I had no idea how to sell MYSELF. I still lacked the confidence and the roadmap as to how to “put it all together”. Marty’s one-on-one coaching has been invaluable. From revising my resume to literally giving me a step-by-step ‘Action Plan’, Marty’s help has been awesome. Also, when job opportunities have arisen, Marty has coached me through next steps and follow-up. His clear, concise approach combined with a fair amount of humor, has really ‘lightened the load’ of navigating the modern job search process.”
“Marty’s insight into the job search process was above and beyond what I expected. Having been through layoffs in the past, I needed a coach who would assist me in creating a focused and effective search campaign. The tools and strategies Marty taught me are invaluable in getting the most effective results in shortest amount of time. I thought I knew a lot about job search, but Marty showed me strategies I either did not consider or didn’t know existed. On top of that, he is very professional and down-to-earth, which made the coaching process fun. I highly recommend utilizing Marty’s services.”
“Marty Gilbert is an outstanding coach! I had the pleasure of being coached by Marty through a recent career search. Marty’s approach is based on candor with a detailed roadmap and tools to help you find your next position. He keeps you on top of your search activities and focused on networking! Marty is a great resource & coach for anyone going through a job search.”
“My resume wasn’t telling a compelling story and I hadn’t interviewed in twelve years. Marty helped flush out my value proposition for potential employers on paper and made me more confident in telling my story in interviews.”
“This was my first time to be in a job search and Marty carefully guided me through his process. He completely repositioned and repackaged my background so that I’d draw more interest and many more interviews.– it worked.”
“I was contacted by a retained executive recruiter for a fantastic VP Marketing opportunity, but I realized my resume needed finessing to better position me. Marty’s deep industry expertise was so evident — he was quick with recommendations to sharpen how I positioned myself and his coaching session made all the difference, enabling me to advance forward to the finalist stage. Additionally, he coached me through the details of an executive-level employment contract and the many variables to consider and/or negotiate. It really prepared me well.”
“The process of looking for a new job can be very intimidating. There is the pressure of having an outstanding resume, a value proposition that sets you apart from the crowd and cover letters to go with every job you apply for. Marty eased all of my fears by addressing each of these tasks and helped me get through the effort with confidence. I thought I had a good resume but Marty helped in making it unique by reflecting my experience, accomplishments and personality. He also guided me through the whole process from the start to the end… I can’t speak highly enough of the coaching services that Marty provides.”
“Marty put together a clear outline of what needed to be done to get back into the job market and get noticed above the large number of other job seekers. Armed with a powerful resume, cover letters, intro letters and an excellent strategy, I am confident of getting job offers soon. Well worth the investment if you want to approach your job search correctly.”
