I've been out of the rat race (employment world) for a decade. Although I have a past work history of lots of clerical experience and have owned two small businesses, my last ten years of volunteering with too much free time, my lack of current job experience using software and with the very very high competition for work in Eugene/Springfield made finding a job/career situation seemingly impossible. My old/outdated resume was just not getting attention. When I contacted Heather she replied within a few hours and we were on the phone talking about me and my work history/skills and how to move forward in updating my resume to get me the job I wanted. I followed her instructions providing her with as much info as possible that would add to my resume (all my volunteer experiences) and we met for coffee and she went over everything. Later that afternoon I had a resume that looked pretty awesome. Heather also helped me craft a cover letter that company managers/HR department heads want to read. I was getting responses from my cover letter/resume submissions and importantly, interviews! After spending a month of not getting any leads I was getting closer and closer to a job. Heather even helped me w/ interview tips and kept in touch w/ me to make sure I was feeling confident about job hunting. She went above and beyond my expectations. I was hired this week and owe a lot to Heather's skillful talent in the HR world.

Once we decided on the design, the stickers were done before I knew it. They look great and she even included some free give away stickers!

I had the idea of upgrading the stenciled Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife numbers required to be displayed for fish and game. I went as a walk in customer. She immediately stopped what she was doing and listened to my idea, and began drawing up the graphics on the computer. She spent plenty of time making sure we got exactly what we needed despite having larger orders in the works already. Family stuff happens. We had to reschedule the install of the stickers which was no problem. Once we got it in there, she took less than 30 minutes to professionally install them. They look FANTASTIC! Way better than we pictured in our head! Don't judge a little disorder in her shop by it's cover. She's just moving in and getting things together, but she is fully up and running and can get you whatever you need for personal or professional. We really couldn't be happier with her work and professionalism. Skip the wait at the big sign shops and go see Courtney!

Heidi is a total pro, and knows exactly how to write a winning resume…read more I'm in a STEM field, and was looking for move my career forward. I had sent my resume out to several places with zero success. I ran my resume thru one those online resume critique services, which came back with some seriously terrifying news: I had a bullet-point achievement resume which wasn't what employers today want. Today's employers are looking for a "demonstrated experience" resume. Well, I had no idea where to start. Yelp led me to Heidi. After a 45-minute phone interview (in which I felt somewhat clueless talking about myself), Heidi responded within a few days with a resume draft - and what a turnaround!! I not only looked amazing on paper, but as I read through it, I realized that my resume accurately reflected me and my work in the best possible way. I was not just amazing on paper, I felt amazing in my career, and my confidence skyrocketed. This time, my resume got me responses and interviews. The language in my resume also helped me to talk about myself in interviews - I suddenly knew how to sell myself. Heidi also crafts a cover letter, and gives you tips for how to make small changes that tailor your resume and cover letter to the job for which you're applying. All correspondence with Heidi was done over the phone or thru email, which was extremely convenient for me. It didn't matter that Heidi didn't know much about my field - she captured the exact language necessary. I spent $250, and it was worth every penny. Thank you, Heidi.

The idea behind CAT is a worthy one--they allow people to fix up bikes at a well-equipped shop for…read morea nominal fee, offer classes in bike maintenance, and sell cheap used parts. The implementation of that idea is rather poor; as the smug "appropriate" in the name might suggest, this shop is staffed largely by hipster bike-snobs who are not at all concerned at helping customers in a timely manner. They will spend some time with you once they get around to it, but even then they only seem to condescend to speak with their lowly, amateur customers. I suspect that regulars are probably treated better--if you enjoy the cliquish, "insider-club" vibe, you might fit right in here; I don't consider myself exceptionally sensitive to it (one couldn't live in Eugene with such a sensitivity), but this place takes it to an intolerable degree. I could probably get over the service issues here, but the last straw for this shop was when I discovered their return policy, or rather their utter lack of one. I fully understand that they can't accept returns on used parts; however, I bought a brand new bike rack from them that, once I got it home, I realized wouldn't work with my panniers. I bought the rack only after first looking on their website and seeing that they listed a standard return policy: "Items must be in new (salable) condition, with hang-tag still attached." I had not removed any tags or opened any of the accompanying bags--it remained in precisely the same condition as when I bought it. But when I asked to exchange it (note: I did not even seek a return), the clerk imperiously pointed to a sign on the desk that said no returns whatsoever. Supposedly, the return policy on their website only applies to items purchased on their website; if you go into the store and purchase the exact same item from the exact same people, the return policy evaporates for some inscrutable reason. I've never heard of such a policy at any bike shop; there are enough tricky compatibility issue with bike parts that sometimes they just need to get returned and exchanged for something that works. Such a policy cuts against the store's entire mission of empowering people to work on their own bikes. So the moral of my experience: go to another shop for new parts; take the classes if you admire or aspire yourself to become a snobby hipster; when you want to buy used parts, get a long grocery list of everything you need so that you'll only have to visit once--you'll be waiting for a while.
