Great call! Scott has guided the call from the beginning and was on point with every topic we've discussed. Was very quick to grasp my needs and address them immediately. Looking forward to speaking to Scott further down the road.

Scott is such an insightful mentor and has just transformed my resume in 15min (also he is vert generous and spent some more time with me afterward). I 100% recommend. He pointed out to me some great insights from the perspective of companies' resume evaluation system, which is something I never hear from elsewhere.

Scott talked me through the key points of an upcoming job interview. I didn't get the job but instead negotiated a consulting relationship with the company, which worked better for me than a full time employee role.
