Marjolijn was a wonderfully enthusiastic supporter of me finding not just work, but work that aligns with my own personal skill set and ideals. She helped me build a great CV which truly reflects what I can provide in the workplace while showing my personality.
She also aided me in becoming more confident as an interviewee and taught me how to embrace my nerves and ask the right questions. Since working with Marjolijn I have more clarity over what I want my future career path to look like and the steps I need to take to get there.

The decision to work with Marjolijn was one of my best ones!
When I contacted Marjolijn I felt stuck at a job that was stable and rewarding in many ways, but did not feel as fulfilling anymore. At the same time I was very pessimistic about my chances at the job market, based on previous negative experience and a number of factors that I saw as playing hard against my chances (age, language, shifts between industries in my CV). During six sessions with Marjolijn my mind turned from a failure mindset to a realisation that my pessimism was not as justified as I thought it was. Marjolijn helped me to identify my values and correlate them with values expected by specific recruiting companies, as well as to formulate the values that were important to me at a new job. She helped me to break free from the failure mood and gave me practical advice on CV, motivation letter and offer negotiations. With this clarity in mind, I managed to convince my interviewers that I could be a good asset for them. Factual results, I think, speak for themselves the most:
1) All applications I sent led to in an interview invitation;
2) I received two job offers from great companies;
3) I accepted the offer of my dream job;
4) The actual job search process took one month from the first application I sent to accepting the offer.
If you feel you may need professional help to get you to the next step in your career, I highly recommend Marjolijn.

Marjolijn has a secret power to empathically help you find the right direction. Our coaching sessions made me more confident to transition through my career and the visualisation sessions were extremely insightful. I have enjoyed every interaction we've had and I can vouch for her kindness and attention to detail that has helped me get more in tune with my feelings, emotions and career goals. I would highly recommend Marjolijn for career coaching.

Marjolijn is a fantastic coach! She helped me to connect with my priorities and vision regarding my career. She made sessions about me, my needs, and goals by acting as a very thoughtful coach who wants the best for you. She does not pretend that she knows all the answers, but she helped me find answers by asking the right questions. I enjoyed our cooperation.
I recommend Marjolijn to anyone who needs career advice, support, or just a sparring partner on career-related ideas.
