MY BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE:
I know what makes individuals stand out and succeed throughout the recruiting and hiring process. I started my career in business development and consultative roles advising and helping hiring managers and organizations acquire talent. Then after transitioning into higher education, I trained and coached MBA students and alumni/ seasoned professionals on how to capitalize on their strengths, determine their career direction and create effective job search strategies. I also have experience managing leadership development programs (from early career to senior level professionals). While managing a talent team, I helped recruit and interview candidates for a financial services enterprise level company and collaborated with C suite and senior leaders to assist in their talent initiatives. I coached, trained and provided ongoing support to assist participants in their career development.

Talking to Kirsten is like working with a nice teammate who is in your corner, but with extensive expertise on application materials and the job search process. She doesn't act like an instructor who just delivers information to you, she tries to learn about your needs and give you meaningful feedback that supports your goals.

I threw Kirsten right into the frying pan when we started our coaching relationship a few weeks ago. I had an immediate need to navigate a job interview process and early compensation negotiations. We dove straight in before she really had time to get to know me, which I really appreciated. From the get-go, she's been incredibly responsive, supportive, and insightful. She listens thoughtfully AND asks great questions. And, has come through in pinch when I needed last minute feedback. My experience so far has been stellar.

It was great to work with Kirsten Nelson with rewriting my resume. Her knowledge and experience was invaluable and I found the end to end process really enjoyable and I am extremely happy with what has been created. I couldn't recommend Kirsten highly enough!

Kirsten is awesome to work with. She makes you a part of the resume rewrite process so you feel more like a collaborator. This is important because it helps bring about your unique perspective into your work history resulting in a stellar resume. I cannot recommend her enough.
