Hi Rebecca and Staff,

Just thought I would tell you thankyou for all your hard work. I finally got work with the National Trust as a Bush Regenerator, which is exactly in line with my chosen career path. I just wanted to say it was so nice to have my professional resume in front of my interviewer and feeling very proud.

Regards

I would highly recommend the work of Rebecca and staff at Career Origin. After many months of applying for jobs using my own resume with little or no response from the prospective employer, I turned to Career Origin for help. From the moment I received the first copy of my resume I started to reapply for work. Before I used the new resume I had not been selected for an interview for any job but now with the Career Origin resume I have applied for about six positions and have been contacted for interview on three to four of these applications. Once again I have the deepest respect for Career Origin and the professional way they have arranged my resume to make it work for me.

Sandra Bullen
CAMPBELLTOWN, NSW

Dear Rebecca and staff,
Thankyou for all the hard work and support over the past couple of years in setting up my resume and government criteria, each time you have successfully gained me a government interview. All thanks, as I am now employed as a public servant. I must say I will be certainly recommending your services as they were done in a professional manner. After the first interview I came to you wondering where I went wrong. After discussing the matter I agreed to one of your coaching sessions which I felt was the key to being successful for this position and gave me such confidence. Did you know there were over 100 applicants and only 1 position, which is now mine. I have learnt so much from your company and would be more than happy to recommend in the future. My family also thanks you and your team for the support and caring phone calls. My wife said that she felt I was a valued client, not just a statistic. Regards,

Kevin Woods

Thankyou Rebecca for your assistance with my most recent Government application. I was successfully in securing a role as Technical Officer with the Department of Housing and have been busy working in this role for three months now. I have referred many family members and friends.

Allan Hammond
INGLEBURN, NSW

Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into my resume. It all looks fantastic and beautifully presented. I would not have known where to start so I am grateful that you put it together for me. To be honest I wasn't sure whether I should contact a career agency to prepare my resume but I am sure glad I did. It not only looks fantastic but it also boosted my self esteem. When it was all written and worded so positively, I realised I had actually already achieved a lot. When I am ready to move on from my current position I will be in contact.

Thankyou to the team at Career Origin for the effort you guys put in toward my recent WorkCover application. Your training team provided me with great knowledge and experience for the interview. I made it all the way to interview, however, it seems my qualifications were not matched closely enough. I was so close and will try again next year, especially considering it is such as competitive application process (over 1800 applicants). I am looking forward to receiving your professional service toward my application next year. Once again, please accept my personal thanks and also convey my sincere thanks to your wonderful team of staff. Will see you again next year.

I can not speak highly enough of the services this company provides. They systematically went through the selection criteria, assisting me through consultation and years of experience in developing a well thought out and detailed 'Claim for the Position', updated my resume to reflect all the experience and skills that I had and even provided me with excellent interview techniques through workshops and personal coaching. The service was just so helpful and very professional. I am happy to recommend any of the services this company provides to anyone needing assistance to land that new job!'

Dear Rebecca and team at Career Origin,

I just wanted to say a very big thank you to you and your team for my professional resume and for the wonderful support that was shown to me recently. Finding myself out of work for the first time in 16 years was very daunting indeed. With no resume to speak of, I took valuable advice from Belinda McLean from HR Focus who suggested I have my resume professionally prepared by Rebecca at Career Origin. Best advice I?ve ever had. Tina took my initial call and got things moving along. Rebecca was in constant touch with me by phone and email to get my resume just right.
I applied for 2 positions using my new professionally prepared resume and was accepted for both positions. Proof that it does work! I cannot thank you enough Rebecca. Not only for a fantastic resume but for your valuable time and the wonderful support you gave to me.

Approximately 2 years ago I found myself unexpectedly unemployed. I had moved towards the Southern Highlands and therefore career opportunities were limited. I gained employment on a casual basis at a local service station which helped to pay the bills and fill in the gaps in my career path. I decided that I needed to rejoin the workforce on a full time basis and had applied for a position with a government agency and failed to meet their selection criteria. I had also applied for a non government job and again failed, so my confidence began to slide, as I felt unemployable and depressed. I was hitting rock bottom, with jobs getting tighter and lots of people applying for work, the competition became fierce.

My life experiences are quite diverse and my career has been nothing short of interesting; however I didn?t have the expertise of writing letters and applications. I then found Rebecca and employed her assistance and expertise to apply for three government positions. To my absolute delight I gained an interview for all three applications and was offered a position with one. Rebecca gave me back my self esteem and confidence. She gave me choices which at one stage I felt I no longer had. I have recently applied for another position and believe that with Rebecca?s help that again, I will have a much better chance of getting to the interview phase. Sometimes you just need a little (or alot) of help. We all have experience either from work or life that have gives us skills to be able to undertake a variety of jobs, however, I would always recommend using the professionals at Career Origin to help sell those attributes. Rebecca did that for me and she can do it for you too.

Thanks Rebecca, your help and guidance is as always appreciated. My career prospects are much brighter due to you.

I first had my resume prepared by Rebecca over two years ago. I cannot speak highly enough of the service and the expertise provided in writing a professional resume which resulted in positive feedback from a range of recruiters. One particular Human Resources Manager called me saying that she wished more people would take the same approach in submitting quality resumes and cover letters. I would recommend Career Origin to anyone who is serious about seeking employment or a change in career direction.

After receiving a redundancy, I have to admit I was so nervous about the whole job hunting process. I chose Career Origin as they assisted with my daughters resume a couple of years ago with great success. I had never applied for a Government position before and did not think they would be interested and to my absolute delight I received a call back for an interview! I would never have achieved this without Rebeccas assistance. My confidence has been boosted and I now feel ready to apply for many more positions.

Thought you might like to know that I reached the final 20 out of 280 applicants!! This was a great surprise as I have not worked in ten years due to raising a family and was a bit unsure if they would even consider me. The Contact Officer at Council informed me that both the resume and selection criteria was of exceptional standard and highlighted my skills and attributes very well and urged me to apply again if another position were to become available as they were extremely impressed. I would not have made it that far without your diligence and professional manner and would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone needing help. I know I will be back again. Once again, a very big thankyou to you and the girls in the office.

Recently, I was retrenched from Suncorp and I attended a group workshop that was run by Rebecca Stewart of Career Origin. I had been to a previous Interview Skills Workshop through an organisation provided by my former employer that was helpful but did not go as far in depth into the process as Rebecca did. Areas of the Interview process that were covered were; Common Interview Traps, Achievements & Interview Preparation, Interview Questions and Questions to ask at the end of an Interview. Each section was discussed in depth and gave me a greater insight than I had before on what was required in terms of presenting my answers to interview questions, particularly to the behavioural questions. Rebecca presented the workshop in a personable and professional manner and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

In the space of two weeks I went from just completing a course whilst being a full time mum, to having a professional resume prepared, gaining an interview and securing a much sought after role in Pathology Collection.

I also received positive feedback from the recruitment agency at the time of my application..........Thank you for your application. It is presented beautifully and I will forward it onto the employer first thing in the morning.

As you are aware I was successful in gaining the position...Thanks again for your help.

A very informative and pleasant experience that has me thinking in a more positive way. The information provided was easy to take in, yet funny, personable and engaging. I now have more confidence and less fear in relation to the interview phase of the application.

Hi Rebecca,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the resume you had prepared for me years ago. Even though I have recently updated it myself, the major work was done by you and it granted me many jobs interviews. I recommend your services to family, friends and work mates.

Hi Rebecca

guess who has done well at interview and been offered a role with (Govt Dep removed)..........Dawn E Carr.

Due to commence Monday 19 May and will be in Orientation for first 2 days and then into the role.

Many thanks for your support and expert assistance to get me to interview. I can now enrol and obtain Certificate VI Training and Assessment and finally get myself a career instead of being the jack of all trades and master on none.

There will be heaps to learn and lots of self improvement.

I would recommend your services to those like me who are time poor when addressing the selection criteria for government roles. The best thing I have done for myself the past 10 years has been contacting Career Origin (Pro Resumes).

Many thanks and kindest regards

Thankyou for your assistance with my application just prior to Christmas. I was one of 50 selected for an interview out of 550 applicants. As per the application word restriction, you only had 50 words to work with three of the questions and you did it. I then attended a group interview and a 3 panel interview and was successful in gaining a position. Thanks again.

I knew I was more than capable and that all the information I provided was 100% true but never did I realise just how much I was capable of and how much experience I had gained until I read the resume you prepared for me. I have sent it out now to a few potential employers and it has already opened up a few doors for me. For that I thank you.

We would have no hesitation in recommending you to both friends and colleagues in the future.

Hi Rebecca,
I would like to thank you for your help in preparing my Resume and selection criteria. The job that I applied for was completely out of my field but with your ideas and knowledge I was successful in obtaining a position with the Benevolent Society. My position incorporates picking up elderly clients and transporting them to our Cottage at Bexley where we organise activities including balloon tennis, magnetic darts, ten pin bowling with a soft ball and pins, bingo, singalongs, outings, BBQ's and much more. It is the most satisfying job that I have ever had. I would also like to thank you on your prompt replies to my many questions .I would not hesitate in recommending Career Origin to anyone.

Hello Rebecca,
I GOT A JOB!!! Office Manager with a training company in Granville. I started last Monday. It pays 11K more than my last job and there are a couple of perks. I want to thank you for helping me apply for all of those jobs, by the way. The owner of the company that interviewed me for my current job was so impressed by my resume, he just had to interview me.........hence..........I got the job. So thank you again and I hope all is going well for you.
Kind Regards

Dear Rebecca,
Jolame got the job and we thank you,because we really do not know what would have happened without your professional and very kind help. The interveiw went really well as the written documents must have sold the other Clubs CEO as he did not even attend the interview, leaving it to Jolames boss to interview him, which turned it into just a formality. The independent Human Resources person that was also at the interview only asked one question from the key selection criteria and that was your brain child on initiative of moving from Fiji to Australia and she said the answer (your answer) was brilliant!! I hope your Husband is doing well and you and all is happy for you. Kind Regards,

Jenny Ratu

I would like to inform you that the application you prepared was very impressive. As you were aware this role was advertised for internal applicants only but I was told about this by a friend. I got a phone call regarding the position; and the Manager said "I read your application again and again and I couldn't find out where you stated that you have been working for us. I wish you had as your application was perfect". The Manager wanted to interview me! Once again, thank you. I will need your help again very, very soon. Thank you and best regards.

Never would I have expected to see myself presented on paper in such a professional manner. I found it hard to believe it was me, but when reading through my resume, I realised, that yes, I had acheived everything. Thanks again for a great document and a huge confidence boost.
