What is it like working with Colin?

“I have had the pleasure of working with Colin after he was referred by a friend, another satisfied client. I enjoyed his personalized advice and particularly appreciated taking advantage of his online course Knockout Networking. It was informative, useful, but most of all fun. The course even considered the psychology of learners to make sure that they assimilate and use the content. Way to go Colin!” — Marley M.

“Colin helped me get in the right mindset, anticipate and prepare for the tough interview questions; clearly identify and articulate my best skills and accomplishments, and present myself with more confidence. I am also grateful to Colin for redesigning my resume to highlight my skills more succinctly and giving me the interview coaching and practice that helped me to finally obtain a position I’d been seeking for some time. Thanks, Colin!” — Alix D.

“In preparation for a job interview, I reached out to Colin at Keepmovingforward.ca.  He worked with me over several days to prepare using mock interview questions, videos, interview critique and helping me to find my positive motivation. At the interview, I was well prepared, calm and was able to utilize the tips and techniques; these are all attributed to the work I have done with  Colin.  Thanks, Colin! Your services were invaluable, and you are great in bringing out the best in the individual!” — Sandra P.

What are other KeepMovingForward.ca clients saying?

“What is a Client Avatar, I asked Colin when we met for our first career building discussion? Very quickly I was guided through the importance of knowing who my specific clients are so that I am able to focus on who I really want to serve. Thank you Colin, my Client Avatar is now known as adults and families, not only youth.” — Norma N.

“I’m benefitting from the self-reflection elements of the course…especially pertaining to barriers… being aware of the barriers you create for yourself (e.g. self-defeating thoughts). Another benefit is the importance of preparation and practice. This can help boost confidence that will lead to better first impressions. Another benefit is becoming more aware of people in your circles that are your network that can lead to great opportunities.” — Trish. L
