She took a personal interest in me and my success in finding a job right when we began working together. Kate is attentive, relatable, creative and thorough. We had exchanged e-mails only a few times prior to our first meeting- and she arrived with lists of resources, programs, education options, resume tips, worksheets and a plan for my specific job search already laid out for me. I made the changes she advised- and set out on my quest for the perfect job. Luckily, a position with a company I had my eye on opened up that week.
