Client Testimonials

“Sara and CareerLaunch are amazing! Within a week, my resumes for both the public and private sectors were updated. Both updates assisted me with referrals for interviews and improved brand recognition in the last few years. Sara also assisted with revamping my LinkedIn profile which ultimately garnered credible interest from recruiters and with making high-profile connections. Their costs are more than fair for the return of services. Sara and company are my go-to even when I’m thinking of applying for new job opportunities or marketing myself as a consultant. They just get me and that comfort keeps me returning as a customer.”

“Sara and her team are incredibly in tune with their craft—working with Sara directly was such a delight that I actually enjoyed the typically arduous task of describing myself professionally. She was quick to work through any suggested changes and beyond willing to answer any of my questions throughout the process. Beyond the fact that she possesses a skill set I do not, she was personable as we discussed my experience and career goals. I often felt I was working with an old friend, and ultimately, I felt Sara had my best interests in mind as she wrote. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or better results. I’d be happy to work with Sara and CareerLaunch again, and I have already recommended their services to a few of my friends.”

“I reached out to CareerLaunch for assistance with revamping my resume. Not only did they update me throughout the process, they brought my skills to life! The team pulled things out of my old resume that I didn’t even realize were there! With my new resume, I’ve landed several interviews and most recently accepted a job offer with a 30% salary increase! I’m so thankful that Sara and her team shared their professionalism & expertise with me by creating a resume that highly marketed my background. I highly recommend CareerLaunch!”

“I came to CareerLaunch for help with a resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile. They did more than simply write me an awesome resume and cover letter, he also gave me ideas on how to successfully sell myself to future employees. There is more to this than simply getting a resume, CareerLaunch will also give you tips on what to include and what not to as he knows what exactly employees are looking for. I am very satisfied with the work and effort that they put in and have already recommended CareerLaunch to my coworkers.”

“My initial consultation with Sara immediately confirmed that working with her and her staff would be the right choice, and I certainly wasn’t disappointed! Excellent communication, great feedback, and a very quick turnaround time. Highly recommended!”

Shane P.Social Media Customer Care - Lidl US

“I highly recommend Sara Pokas and her Career Launch team. They helped me with my initial job search endeavors, and then six weeks later when I was in a pinch, they helped me with a last-minute update that they turned around in less than 90 minutes, AFTER normal business hours just to make sure I had what I needed.  This is exemplary customer service!”

James H.Sales Executive - Google

“I had been in a transitional job position, after receiving a master’s degree almost 4 years ago. I wanted to apply for manager and director-level positions. The problem was although I did amazing work in all my previous jobs, prior to earning my degree my jobs were in retail. Sara was able to help craft a new vision for my resume that focused on my managerial skills and less on the retail aspects. Since I have been using this resume, I have slowly started to apply and to date have applied to 10 jobs and have either been interviewed or referred for half of them. Sara did an amazing job working with me to craft my new resume. She greatly appreciated any input I had when crafting my new image and helped me feel more confident in my skill set.”

Josh B.Partner - K&J Strategic Solutions

“CareerLaunch did an excellent job with my resume, and I couldn’t be more pleased. They took the time to speak with me and review my past resumes, goals, and objectives and produced a resume that is functional, organized, and effective. They provided it quickly, were always responsive, and provided incredibly prompt updates and edits as needed. I would absolutely recommend working with CareerLaunch.”

Nathan M.Strategic Communication Specialist - Chenega Corporation

“It had been over 12 years since I have had to look for a job. It is an understatement, that the entire “job search” process was daunting to me. In fact, for the first two or three months, I just used the resume that I had created 12 years prior and simply added my most recent experiences to it. However, I quickly realized that the old resume couldn’t help me compete with people who were younger than me, smarter than me, etc. So, I used LinkedIn’s ProFinder feature to look for a resume writer. Sara Pokas with CareerLaunch, responded, and the rest, as they say, is history. Her team of resume experts reworked my resume into something modern, eye-catching, and ATS-friendly. Everyone was so helpful, they took my suggestions seriously and worked them into the final product.

 

I am happy to report that I was recently offered an awesome position using my new resume. I am so grateful for the opportunity to work with the CareerLaunch team and I would recommend them to anyone who has an outdated, congested resume. Please reach out to Sara and have her and her team provide you with feedback and a fresh set of eyes. Thanks again, guys!! I am forever grateful.”

Alicia M.Associate Director, Communications - Federal Government Agency (nondisclosed)

“The team at CareerLaunch did a tremendous job from start to finish by providing a fresh and effective new perspective to my resume. I was looking to give my traditional resume a facelift by making it current and modern to be more appealing to the creative industries. Additionally, Sara and her team sought out additional information to further improve my resume which provided a significant amount of value. They knocked it out of the park and I highly recommend their services.”

Sarah D.Senior Project Manager, Creative - Meta

“When I started with CareerLaunch, I did my initial consultation with Sara, who was absolutely amazing and the resume she provided was the best I have ever seen, including the one I had done by a well-known resume-building company. But what stood out even more was the way Sara worked with me. She really got to know me and helped me understand the changes she was making. The process gave me a newfound motivation to search for jobs because I knew how great my resume had become.

 

I also met virtually with the career coach—and those meetings were genuinely life-altering. I was at a crossroads with six different routes and no idea which to choose. He helped me unpack my skills and compare them to the things I wanted to achieve in life.  His expertise provided me with insight and a new perspective from which I could more clearly see the various careers I wanted. He was so kind and patient with me and did not pressure me or impose stressful deadlines. I was able to assess what I am good at and what it is I want as a career—and now, I am confident that I am on the right path. Hands down, CareerLaunch is the place to go for any career resource services you need! “
