    Judy Kaplan Baron is truly a talented individual and, unfortunately for those who haven't…read morediscovered her, a best kept secret. Judy is so good that I have now become a repeat client of hers. And just like the first time I went to see her (2016), this second time I was also offered a job! A promotional opportunity arose outside of my company and I knew the competition would be fierce. Not to fear, I thought, because I knew Judy could help me dust off my interview skills. I still had Judy's material and notes from the first time I saw her. Shoot, there were a few techniques Judy taught me in 2016 that I continue to use since I am routinely presented with hypothetical situations and asked to make sense of them. I was surprised, and humbled, at how many of Judy's skills and techniques I had forgotten since I last saw her. I knew after completing my first session with her that I'd need a second. Once again, Judy's guidance propelled me to a second-round interview. My soon-to-be boss told me that the first-round interview had gone so well, the panel urged that I be interviewed ahead of the second-round schedule. For this, I have Judy to thank. Judy has a way of coaching you through complex concepts and breaking them down into bite-sized pieces. She's a master at working with you to identify your own experience and crafting just the right "elevator pitch" to use in panel and one-on-one interviews. Judy's formulas for answering hypothetical questions, word choice for describing one's achievements, and tips on how to negotiate a higher salary for yourself are truly incredible. Her hour-and-a-half sessions race by and are actually fun. I'm a pretty cheap person, but I'll tell you Judy's worth every penny of her fee. I have zero question in my mind that when the next promotional opportunity arises for me, one of the first people I'll call is Judy.

    I was referred to Judy from a former instructor who previously helped her. When Judy and I…read moreinitially spoke over the phone, she advised me what to bring during our first session. When we first met, I never considered myself a bad interviewer, until Judy told me the truth. She is very honest, warm, friendly, incredibly knowledgable, caring and professional. Her background provided me valuable insight with interviewing skills that I will continue to use throughout my educational and professional career. Judy even called me to follow-up to see how my interview went. Needless to say, it went incredibly well but I truly appreciated that she took the time to check in with me. However, in full disclosure, her prices are a bit high. Although it was still expensive, I invested two scheduled sessions with her. Yes, I said invest because that's what you will take away from meeting with her. I am much more confident with interviewing than I ever have before thanks to Judy. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a Career Counselor! Give yourself a chance, and invest in yourself and call Judy! She is an amazing person!
