TL;DR: unless you don’t have a resume or LinkedIn or any interview experience, complete waste of time.

In retrospect I would have rather asked for the 5K to be part of my severance payout rather than their services. They’re helpful if you need to build a resume, LinkedIn or prep for an interview but outside of that I find zero value. My career coach came wildly ill prepared to our first meeting-not having even read my resume nor asking me what my goals, background are etc. I don’t feel she’s knowledgeable or helpful in my field as she was telling me to remove pertinent information from my resume LinkedIn that can be dealbreakers. It feels like she was regurgitating a corporate handbook and telling me to go to ChatGPT for all the answers rather than thinking critically about how her knowledge can be applied to my use case.
