Our Testimonials

Mike has been a great asset to our son over many months while he worked out what he wanted to do after graduating. Not only was Mike consistently available as a sounding board and source of ideas but he also helped with interview practice and planning and preparation for Assessment Centres. It makes a huge difference having a non-family member for a young job seeker to talk to, an external perspective is very valuable (even if expressing the same opinion as a parent!)

Richard Hyde – CEO of Brian Hyde Limited

Enjoyed working with you, Mike – your efforts were tireless on our behalf and I am sure I was not the easiest of clients!

Lincoln Clarke – CEO, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard

Without exception each new member of the team has made an excellent contribution to our organisation thus far, and that can be put down, in no small part, to Mike’s efforts. I’d have no hesitation in recommending him.

I contacted Mike during my A-Levels for help applying to internships for my gap year. From the very first session, Mike’s guidance was invaluable. He helped me restructure my CV to highlight my strengths and tailor it to the roles I was targeting. His advice on interview techniques was particularly useful—I went into my interviews with a clear strategy, prepared answers for common questions, and the confidence to tackle unexpected ones.

Mike also took the time to understand my interests and career goals, helping me identify the right internships for my skill set. His workshops were not only informative but also highly interactive, making it easy to apply what I had learnt. Thanks to his support, I secured an internship that perfectly aligned with my goals, giving me an excellent head start in my career.

Mike was recommended to us with a glowing reference.  Working with our daughter he built up her confidence and helped her broaden her job search.  He was always available when she needed him for support even at weekends . He helped her prepare for interviews and  kept the journey of job searching positive even when there were knocks.  We would definitely recommend him for career coaching as he has a good affinity and understanding of the younger generation.

Candidate: Head of IT – Longleat

The whole process from first conversation around the role to interview was quick and painless, with Mike being very effective with his communication.
