What career changers are saying about Madelyn
“After working with Madelyn, I instantly attracted professionally relevant career building views and communication on LinkedIn. Through working with her, I attracted the interest of a Recruiter from one of my dream employers and will be starting a new job there shortly. I appreciate her enthusiasm during our time together and for helping me to ready myself for the job search.”
“This wasn’t just a new resume, the final resume that Madelyn produced for me encouraged me to relook at my abilities and gave me the confidence to continue my job search/promotion.”
“She is an energetic and inspiring communicator. Using her seasoned career-coach expertise, thorough knowledge of LinkedIn and life experience, Madelyn made the training relevant and accessible to everyone in the room. Madelyn is truly amazing; she will inspire greatness in you if you are so fortunate to experience her coaching.”
“I would strongly recommend anyone needing a career advisor to seek out Madelyn. I connected with Madelyn after my previous employer downsized. Meeting Madelyn was the best thing that happened to me during that time. Madelyn took time to review both my cover letter and resume and I received many callbacks as a result. I found Madelyn to be a great listener; she provided insight into areas of improvement to get me noticed by employers. Madelyn’s advice worked 100% of the time. As a mentor, as a coach Madelyn is “GREAT.” Thanks to our weekly meetings and her positive influence I was offered two jobs following Madelyn’s method. I only wish everyone had a coach like Madelyn. I can’t thank her enough.”
“Madelyn, thank you so much for leading the Good Ol’ Girls Activate Your Salary workshop. Your presentation was everything we could have hoped for: fun, engaging, and most of all, informative. I love that you gave more than just a pep talk. Your step-by-step guide made the negotiation process real and manageable.”
“The advice and training Madelyn provides produces results. Not long after incorporating her strategies, I got an interview with a top company for a position that I am very interested in…and very well qualified. A few days later, following her LinkedIn tips, I received an email from a hiring manager requesting a meeting. Take Madelyn’s workshops, execute what you learn, and, you will see results!”
“I cannot recommend Madelyn enough as a career coach/ advisor for those looking to transition careers. When I decided to start looking for other career opportunities, I applied with the same old resume I have been using for the last 10 years and was getting little to no call backs. After working with Madelyn, two things happened: 1) I gained a clear picture of the type of opportunity I was seeking to allow me to narrow my focus and 2) I received a phenomenally updated resume that helped me showcase my best qualities. Within 2 weeks of receiving my updated resume I was hired by my new employer! (And I had gotten quite a few other interviews that I was in consideration for to boot.) If you want positive results in your next job search, hire Madelyn!”
“I found Madelyn’s presentation skills to be very informative, but also engaging. The content has been very useful for me in my current job search. Most importantly, I was able to revamp my LinkedIn profile to include her recommendations and other professional tips.
Madelyn is also a very engaging speaker, involving her audience with questions and testimonials. I recommend Madelyn for all training and career search activities based on my first-hand experiences with her.”

Her entire approach was not only helpful, but also extremely positive and energizing.”
