I had a great experience working with Teresa…read more Her coaching sessions were extremely helpful in providing practical guidance and working through my sticking points. Teresa is very astute and insightful. After just a couple of coaching sessions she had a clear understanding of my situation, my personality and my values. I tend to get stuck in over-thinking and have been going around in circles about what I want to do for a long time. Teresa helped me set realistic expectations and define clear, achievable goals to help me move forward. I would highly recommend working with her.

I reached out to Kathryn when I was looking to change jobs. I talked to a few coaches before…read moredeciding to work with Kathryn. I liked her approach and communication style. I think that's very important when selecting a coach. I had made a lot of assumptions about the next step in my career. Kathryn helped me explore the rational and logic behind these assumptions. I learned just how much they were limiting my options. That was a big eye opener for me. Further, she pushed me to think about many other important factors about my next job that I was not really considering. Once we figured out the type of roles that excited me, we focused on tactical strategies to reach out to potential employers. My networking skills were already good, but she helped sharpen them further. Last week, I started a job that I am very excited about and I am very thankful to Kathryn for all the help.

I had reservations about hiring a professional career coach and wasn't really sure what it was all…read moreabout. I thought my time and money would be better spent having my resume professionally done and job hunting. After only three sessions, Ty helped me see that I was just job hunting, not looking for a career. He really listened to what I said, and his approach fit my situation very well. He took the time to learn about who I am, my skills and my interests. Then we explored many career options that would be a good match for me, including some that I would never have looked at. I highly recommend Ty to anyone who wants to stop job hunting and find a good career, or change careers but doesn't know the options for them.

Tacoma Goodwill's Neighborhood Bistro is basically a glorified cafeteria. But it's cafeteria food…read morefor a great cause. From $2.99 to $4.99 per meal, this quick lunch stop can't be beat. Visited the Bistro for lunch this week with Dawn Q. I had the "Chef's Plate" of meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans for $4.99. The food was solid, there was a lot of it, and it was cooked and served by students in Goodwill's job training program. My lunch buddy had a veggie wrap and gave her meal two thumbs up as well. I will definitely be back. I stopped by the Coffee Buzz (Goodwill's barista training program coffee shop) on my way out for a cappuccino from some uber-friendly baristas. The foam was perfection, but the drink took about 10 minutes to get to me. I was prepared for the wait, having known this was a training location, but I heard another customer grumbling about his own wait. To this I say -- chill out buddy! They're training, and you should have known this before coming! I'll be back to the Coffee Buzz as well!

I am pretty disappointed with the Goodwill Milgard Center. I was looking for work retraining…read more After doing my homework with this place and viewing online the PDF page where there was a list of programs I decided on one, having made my plans to enroll, then get employed, perhaps move out of state to join my fiancé who lives in the Midwest. Well guess what? Not only was the page NOT updated but Goodwill doesn't even offer the job training program any more. I emailed the address only to have it bounce back as undeliverable. I called the phone number connected with the job training program only to get an automated voice say that the call can not be connected which I might add was listed as the phone number to call on the Goodwill Milgard PDF page. Way to go Goodwill. Don't understand why the page could not have been updated, I had to waste my time emailing, calling a phone number that wasn't any good. I already am going through a difficult time REAL difficult. I feel that this organization could care less. It's public school all over again. Is it because that you are funded & you have this callous "who cares" attitude? Yet I'm shamed because I don't have a job. The receptionist at Goodwill sure wasn't helpful. Want to know what she said to me when I asked her about the program I was interested in, and she said that the program wasn't offered anymore. I grew a bit irritated, then I was silent. She replies with "Is that It"? This place? Awful! Thanks for nothing!
