Testimonials

I highly recommend Ms. Beverly Daniel as an extremely effective career coach. As a mid-career professional seeking both a career change and relocation assistance, I couldn't have hoped for a more knowledgeable and dynamic coach than Ms. Daniel. With Ms. Daniel's expertise, in a surprisingly short period of time, I was able to clarify my true strengths, create a winning resume, design a viable search strategy, gain crucial insights on the current job market, learn about important industry contacts, and amplify the confidence required to follow my dreams. Professional and personable, it was a pleasure working with Ms. Daniel.

Beverly Daniel and the CareerGrowthGroup afforded me the opportunity to articulate and prioritize career goals and immediate action items for success. Through well constructed sessions, personality assessments and qualification discusssions, I was able to push past the "overwhelmed/confusion" state and determine the best path forward on both a personal and professional level. Beverly works with you to determine your best suited short and long term strategy; you leave feeling "grounded" and ready for execution.

Beverly gave positive advice, enabling me to feel more confident of my abilities. She taught me to mention my strengths and emphasize, to the interviewers, the strengths that I have in terms of their relevance to the job that I was interviewing for. Eventually, through my work with her, I was able to get a position of Actuary at a major insurance company.

Richard Colea, Insurance Actuary

Thanks for your expert career guidance and advice. In a very short period, you helped me land the job I was after. Our preparation together was very helpful and I thank you for it!!!

Dea Conrath, Vice President, Wells Fargo Bank

Beverly successfully guided me through each of the different steps that a job search entails. Her advice enabled me to avoid any errors in judgment and her continuous pressure moved me forward through the process.

Beverly took the time to understand who I am, what my strengths are, and where I wanted to take my career. After discussing each of my contacts in detail, she helped me understand what sort of conversation I need to have with each person – what information to ask for and how to ask for it. Her human resources experience enabled her to provide a corporate hiring perspective and determine what the realities of each line of inquiry were.

She made excellent suggestions about different organizations I could join in order to become more involved and meet more people. She even used one of her contacts from an NYU Stern alumni organization to gather more information for me about my intended career.

Finally, she was an invaluable resource when I needed to send out cover letters and resumes. She went out of her way to ensure that each resume was appropriately tailored to each situation and contained the strongest possible language.

Every job search contains the inherent danger that you wind up finding and taking a mediocre job. Coming from the ranks of the unemployed, my job expectations were low, but with Beverly 's help, I was able to secure an analyst position at Credit Suisse. Beverly will make sure that you maximize your job search and obtain the best possible result.

Beverly Daniel is a superb talent. Visually speaking, I liken her to a makeover artist of the highest caliber. She has the uncanny ability to see the big picture and simultaneously know just what attributes, what details to highlight and how best to do so. The core of her best work is her ability to draw the personality out which gives depth, meaning, focus and motivation to her work in progress. Through her subtle use of psychology, her coaching effortlessly helped me to identify my talents, goals and new career path that I slipped into and immediately felt comfortable like a new pair of shoes.

Constance Semple, Forensic Matrimonial Analyst & Investigator

I just want to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent help over these past few months.  You provided not only overall moral support and encouragement, but specific actionable recommendations that I found very useful for my job search.  Specifically, in this unquestionably tough job market, the advice to identify the main pockets of market demand which I perceived on a recurring basis (risk management, Basle regulatory capital, etc.) and mesh my background with these requirements served me very well.  It led me to deepen my knowledge of these areas through extensive technical reading, seminars, professional associations, on-line educational material, and so forth.  As a result, I came up to speed on these topics in a relatively short time. In addition, your general guidance on how to build on the experience of networking meetings, earlier interviews and on the "flow" of the interview process was well taken.  And your unwavering enthusiasm was a great confidence booster, always!   Being prepared from a confidence standpoint and having the right mindset really make a difference in the often daunting job search process, particularly these days.  In sum, you are a true professional and expert in helping your clients navigate their way through the current stormy waters of finding new career directions and opportunities.  Thanks again for your help.  It has been great renewing our relationship after nearly 30 years.  I know we will continue to stay in touch, and I will certainly refer many others to you for your excellent professional guidance.
