When I transitioned careers recently, I made the wise decision to seek assistance from Polaris Career Solutions' Carl Lackstrom. His expertise was invaluable in enhancing my resume and providing expert guidance. Despite my belief that my resume was effective, Carl's outstanding improvements yielded immediate results. Furthermore, Carl took the time to explain each change and how it would aid me in my job search. His advice on job search tactics was equally valuable, helping to boost my resume views and resulting in more interviews. In addition, Carl's ability to explain the process and alleviate any discomfort was exceptional, earning my wholehearted endorsement.
