I just wanted to thank Angela for all the support and guidance she provided throughout the job application process. I’ve learned a lot about how to apply for a job, what to display on your resume, and how to connect with the interviewer. Before this I had no strategy and was winging it. I was doing what most would do most with the apply and prayer method. Where I would apply to so many jobs. This was not a smart method. Working with Angela taught me to apply for jobs with quality and then focus on your strategy on what stories to convey to connect with the interviewer. With this I had actually had an offer from a company that came back within the range that me and Angela discussed we would get. I happen to get two offers from two large companies. My self-esteem is high and moving forward if ever I go on the job hunt again. I know I have the tools to use and execute in turning the interview to a job offer. I would highly recommend Angela and her services. What makes her stand she doesn’t give up on you and that’s an admirable quality in an individual.

Before working with Angela, job searching felt like a dreaded task. After spending a decade at one company within Product Operations for Messaging & Messaging Compliance, my experience was somewhat specialized. When I was laid off in 2023, I quickly realized the job market had changed. I spent months struggling to enhance my resume to meet current hiring trends, applying to roles that didn’t quite align with my experience and it seemed clear I wasn’t sure of where I wanted to go next. When I found Angela, saying yes to working with her was easy. She took the time to ask me what challenges I was facing, listened to my needs and allowed me to move at my own pace. My biggest “aha” moment was realizing the value of my experience and how to confidently articulate it. This allowed me to re-engage my network, approach interviews with clarity, and nail the dreaded “tell me about yourself.” Overall, I reached a new level of self confidence which I hadn’t had through Angela’s process. I landed a role that checks so many of my boxes—salary, work type, and company fit. Angela’s organization and attention to detail are truly one of a kind. If you’re feeling stuck and need support to increase your level of confidence in job searching, especially in today’s market, I can’t recommend her enough.

Before working with Angela, I struggled to secure job offers despite reaching the final rounds of interviews. Her coaching was a game-changer. She advised me to "inject passion" into my interviews, and through mock sessions, I realized that while my resume was strong, I lacked genuine excitement. Angela's guidance boosted my confidence and taught me how to convey passion effectively, resulting in multiple offers from top tech companies. I'm grateful for her insight and the valuable skills I've gained.

I had the pleasure of working with Angela Lau for almost a year, and she was instrumental in helping me gain clarity and direction in my career journey. Before we began working together, I struggled to decide whether to explore different careers or sectors, but Angela helped me define my path with focus and confidence. My biggest 'aha' moment was understanding the key qualities I was looking for in a culture and organization—and realizing that a move to the West Coast aligned perfectly with my goals. Thanks to Angela’s guidance and expertise, I received two excellent job offers and am now thrilled to begin this next chapter. Her thoughtful, tailored approach and deep understanding of career development made a tremendous impact on my search, and I highly recommend Angela to anyone seeking clarity, strategic direction, and real results in their career.

I had the pleasure of working with Angela during my job search. Before we started, I was getting interviews but couldn't seem to close them, leaving me feeling stuck and unsure of what I was doing wrong. One of the biggest "aha" moments for me came during a live interview session we did together. Angela’s real-time feedback helped me see how I could be more engaging and impactful during interviews. As a result of our session, I was able to land a job immediately after applying Angela’s techniques. Not only did my confidence soar, but I felt prepared to present myself as a strong candidate. I highly recommend Angela to anyone looking to refine their job search strategy and land the role they've been aiming for. She provides the kind of insight that truly transforms the way you approach interviews and the entire process.

As a career changer, my biggest struggle before working with Angela was gaining clarity on my next steps and translating my previous work experience into the new role I was targeting. Angela taught me an effective way to update my resume, highlighting relevant experiences for the roles I was applying to. Her approach to networking helped me engage in more conversations with industry professionals, eventually leading to 3X the number of interviews I had before working with her. Ultimately, I received the job offer I wanted! Working with Angela was crucial in navigating this challenging job market. Her support was fundamental in helping me build my confidence and showcasing my skills.

Prior to working with Angela, I lacked clarity about how to make a change in my career. Angela provided practical guidance, much needed feedback, and helpful reminders to remain confident in my search. I went from submitting random applications to actively seeking out organizations I was excited by and feeling more in control of my job search. I was able to land ~6 exciting interviews in a couple months. When I received a job offer, Angela helped me puzzle through my options and supported me in making a decision.I am so thankful for Angela and highly recommend her to anyone at any stage in their career search!

After a couple of tough years professionally, I was feeling really lost in my career path. That loss of passion was absolutely showing through in my job search, therefore I was getting interviews and excelling based on my technical skills, but I wasn't landing that final offer. After repeated rejections I was fully stuck and felt like I was just shooting in the dark in my job search. 2 of the biggest things I'm taking away from my experience working with Angela are: 1. Angela took me through a "Career Clarity" Worksheet that had a great structure of leading questions that really reminded me what I'm good at, what I love, and all the successes I've had in my career. This not only helped remind myself of my strengths, but it helped me focus my job search and better articulate what I was looking for to prospective employers. 2. I got crucial feedback on my interview stories. Angela would tell me when what I was saying didn't make sense or if my story was impossible to follow. Then we worked together to craft a story that addressed what interviewers were *actually* asking, hit specific key points, and tell a story about my accomplishments. This is definitely what helped me land my new role. In concrete terms, Angela helped me cross the finish line to receiving a job offer, along with negotiating a ~$15k increase in starting salary. Beyond that, Angela really helped validate how I was feeling about previous roles, she helped me identify what I really wanted out of my next role, inspired my self-confidence in my own abilities, and provided a knowledgable sounding board and structure for my job search. I'm now at a company that I'm really happy with, my interview process was 1/10th as anxiety-inducing, and I'm genuinely excited to dive into my new role.

Angela is a phenomenal coach and motivator! Prior to working together, I struggled with clearly communicating my impact in prior roles to interviewers. I would nail the screening interview with the recruiter, but could never get past the final interviews to what I wanted most - a job offer. Angela's coaching allowed me to hone in on appropriate skills to highlight and clearly articulate why I was the best candidate for the role. Once I got a job offer, she led me through tactfully negotiating my compensation package and gave me the confidence to advocate for a higher salary than I would have normally felt comfortable asking for. I landed a salary 10k higher than my previous role and at a job that has continued to be an amazing fit for me. I am so appreciative of her expert coaching that allowed me to land a fulfilling role after a 1.5-year search!

Before I met Angela my biggest struggle in searching for a job was that I had no idea how to navigate the tech job market or where to begin applying. It seemed impossible to just get my resume in front of a person, and my applications would usually get automatically rejected. I also lacked confidence that I possessed the technical skills to land a job I wanted, I was intimidated by the qualifications on job postings and thought I would never be able to land one of these jobs. Shortly after working with Angela, I realized that it does not matter if you don't have experience in a particular tool that is listed on a job description, it matters more that you are able to showcase your skills that you already have, and how you can leverage these in any new role that you want. I was unhappy at my previous position, I had a total compensation of about 85k, but within a few weeks of working with Angela I had an offer to work as a data engineer with a total compensation of about 136k. The amazing thing is that my first set of interviews went almost exactly the way Angela described they would go, the kinds of questions I was asked were almost identical to the ones we had practiced. I am really happy to have found Angela as a coach, I believe going forward I will have even greater opportunities with a much higher confidence level of finding the positions I want and getting the compensation I believe I'm worth.

Angela really helped me narrow down where I should focus my resume updates and what roles might be best for me moving forward in my search. She displayed utmost professionalism in her assistance with my job search, without being pushy whatsoever! I really appreciated it - she gave me more inspiration to continue moving forward, albeit with a few tweaks to my approach!

Before collaborating with Angela, my job search was marked by frustration and low success. Despite applying to over 200 positions in the U.S. market, I only secured 2 interviews. This challenging experience was rooted in my initial assumptions about job applications being a numbers game and the need for rapid, tailored submissions. Angela provided the pivotal "aha" moment when she revealed that successful job hunting is less about volume and more about strategic networking and precise targeting. She introduced me to invaluable strategies including how to interpret job descriptions accurately, tailor resumes effectively, and articulate my professional narrative compellingly. The results of Angela’s mentorship were transformative. Not only did I secure a coveted position at one of my top target companies, but I also aced the interview process thanks to the techniques she taught. My confidence in job searching soared from a meager 3 to a robust 9 out of 10. Angela’s guidance was instrumental in demystifying the U.S. job market and equipping me with the tools for success. Anyone seeking to enhance their job search strategy would greatly benefit from her expertise and supportive approach.

Before working together, my biggest struggle in the job search was understanding what path I wanted to take, and how to form a strategy so that I was not just mass applying to hundreds of jobs without hearing anything back. Through our work together, my biggest "aha" moment was realizing that every job boils down to a few skills, and while it's easy to get lost in the specific of requirements, tailoring your experience to those base skills is the most important part of applying. So often, I get overwhelmed by specific tools and years of experience required, but when you simplify it down to a few things like communication or project management, it becomes more clear what jobs you would be good at and how to better present yourself to those roles. No tangible results at the moment, but will keep you updated! My confidence in the job search prior to our work would be 2/10, after, 7/10.

Before I started working with Angela, I was completely out of touch with how the US job market works. I did have a resume and a clear idea or the type of job I wanted to find, but I was struggling to even get invited to an interview. I guess I was shooting in the dark and results were not coming in. My biggest “aha” moment was when Angela explained to me that the best approach to job seeking is to clearly understand how to categorize what are the skills (soft and hard) that your desired job requires and then tailoring your resume to ensure those skills are clearly shown and properly conveyed in your resume. That was a game changer! Tangible results: I got a job in less than 4 months, with no prior experience in US market and got offered 30k more than what I was expecting. Confidence prior to working with Angele started good and then hit rock bottom when interviews were not coming along. After working with Angela, I am very confident I will be able to land better interviews and opportunities. Also, I know I can always reach Angela in case I need help with something. Overall, I am very happy I decided to work with Angela. She is very helpful, patient and has a genuine interest in seeing you achieve your goals. I would definitely recommend her to anyone out there going desperate with this job marker!
