Lansky Career Consultants

I went to Judi for career coaching, because I’d wanted to explore options for a possible career change. Judi not only helped me to clarify my career interests but also to build a variety of skills to prepare for my career change; those skills included, among others, professional networking, informational interviewing, and marketing for what would become my new business. She also provided constructive feedback on my resume and other career-​relevant documents. The best descriptors that I have for Judi’s approach in helping me with these various tasks include supportive, patient, compassionate, and encouraging, especially when I sometimes felt discouraged in my career-​development process, or when I felt stressed out about or tired of dealing with life’s various demands and obstacles. Rather than passively accepting my avoidance of certain career-​development tasks or aggressively pushing me to accomplish those tasks, she was able to nudge me gently to take my next career steps. In short, I’m grateful for all of Judi’s support. I’m hopeful that, based on our career-​coaching sessions, I’ll more effectively (and enthusiastically!) tackle my ongoing career-​development process in the coming days.

I have enjoyed using Judi Lansky’s services, which I found to convenient, reasonably priced, and helpful.
I found Ms. Lansky to be flexible and to be able to give me feedback on a variety of issues important to me such as interview strategy.
I’d have to say that I found her flexibility most helpful, personally. I also valued her willingness to answer direct questions I’ve had about the job search process, and I also valued her warmth which I found encouraging.

A complete waste of time and money. The «coach» spent the majority of the time talking about herself and her other clients. She also provided comments on my clothing– though a professional dress and heels, the coach gave an odd array of commentary, also pointing out that my jacket was not what she «excepted» me to be wearing. It is the middle of winter in Chicago– would you not expect someone to be wearing a long coat with a hood?
She commented on my current employment, saying jobs in Information Technology are easy to get and anyone can land a job in technology with virtually no skills. I took offense to this because I studied Information Engineering at a top tier university and I like to think that contirbuted to my employment– whether I am looking for a change or not.
Regardless, don’t waste your time or money! I expected a career consultant to be much less shallow and much less self centered.
