ReNewIst

I came to Pelin because I was having trouble getting noticed by employers in a new field. She helped me re-​do my resume and linkedin profile in order highlight my transferable skills and experiences. A few months later I’d interviewed for several positions and had two offers to choose from. Both were great fits for my skills, but they wouldn’t have known this if not for Pelin’s help.

I met with Pelin this spring and took the Birkman assessment with her. It was such a pleasure meeting with her and discussing my results! I ended up staying much longer than I’d anticipated and we had a wonderful conversation about my current career fit and what was/wasn’t working there. The results were surprising and Pelin was an empathetic guide through the assessment. It helped me to realize that I’m actually in a good career for my interests and strengths but that it’s also important to make sure the company is a good fit for me as well. I definitely recommend her and would go back if I ever need resume help or advice for a career shift.

Pelin made a real difference in my career journey. She played a crucial role in enabling to make a significant career change with her strong industry experience, guidance, insight and kindness. Pelin not only helped me with my resume and interview skills, but also provided a broad career coaching and consulting. I would not hesitate to recommend Pelin to anyone who needs a thorough career coaching and consulting service. She still helps me with each step of my career progression.

Realizing that I wanted to change careers was a scary idea and I’m so glad I was able to find Pelin! With her help and the Birkman assessment I was able to find out what field I should really be in to be happy and successful. The test is insightful and pointed out characteristics in me that I hadn’t even realized before, and I now know what kind of environment I need to be able to thrive, and what kinds of workplaces to avoid. Pelin was able to help me figure out what job options are possible with the skills I already have, and luckily it’s not too far of a leap! I’m so lucky to have found her and I’m excited to finally have the career direction I’d been seeking. I highly recommend her services!

Pelin uses the Birkman model, which provides guidance based on your motivations, as opposed to the conventional models that are based on your strengths — and that made all the difference for me. After having met with Pelin, I have clear understanding of what drives my motivation and how to infuse it into the workplace and even personal life outside of work. I highly recommend her to anybody.

Pelin is an insightful dynamo who found the best way to package and present my achievements to prospective employers. I am very good at the work I do, but I lack the polish needed when it comes to selling myself and Pelin really came through for me in that regard.
Pelin helped me understand how to properly describe my work, what makes a good resume, and how to use my LinkedIn account effectively. Not only did I gain much more effective tools, but I feel I have a stronger grasp of how to target and successfully hunt the next stage of my career.
On top of her professional guidance, Pelin is a pleasure to work with. I honestly felt that she cared about what I wanted and really tried to steer me in the direction of my dream job.
I would use her again in a heartbeat, but seeing now that my search is going well, I probably won’t have to anytime soon.

Pelin is a career consultant star. Between her in-​depth knowledge about a wide variety of industries and her ability to match personality and career, Pelin is a great person to have on your side. She worked tirelessly with me every step of the process from providing insight about my personality and targeting best-​fit jobs to endlessly reworking my resume and LinkedIn. On top of it all she created a welcoming environment in which I felt comfortable examining how I’d been pursuing all the wrong career paths for my personality. Her help was instrumental in my job search.

I had been looking to relocate, searching for a job across the country without success. I realized I needed some expert help.
Although I thought I had a strong resume, Pelin quickly pointed out some weaknesses that were holding me back. She worked with me to refine both the document and, crucially, my LinkedIn presence. From the first call, she exuded warmth and positive energy. Our meetings were a series of discussions that continuously drew me into the process.
Pelin’s guidance on networking was empowering – exactly the right combination of supporting framework and an encouraging push that I needed.
Her ability to rapidly gain insights into my industry, career, experience, and what distinguishes me from the competition was incredibly impressive. She pairs that with a gift for quickly zeroing in on those areas that need attention.
Pelin is direct and assertive when needed, but always refreshingly open and inquisitive. She is never without a smile.
It was such a pleasure working with Pelin, and I’m sure I’ll be returning for her guidance in the future.

I met Pelin at an event in New York. I found her pleasant, communicative and knowledgeable with apparent passion towards helping people build their personal brands. I would recommend Pelin to anyone who needs career advice and guidance.

The Birkman Assessment has been an enjoyable and extremely useful experience for me. Anyone, regardless of age and occupation, can be unaware of many things about themselves and that might be having a huge impact on their job performance and satisfaction. By taking this assessment, I have discovered not only my strengths and motivational needs, but also how I could use them to my advantage in my personal and professional life. I’m very thankful to Pelin for coaching me while warmly and engagingly explaining my results. I feel empowered to communicate with my staff and clients more effectively and run my business more successfully.

Pelin is such a joy to work with. That alone can make or break a business, and from the first moment I met her I knew that no one would work harder or be more invested in my interests and goals than she. Pelin is incredibly knowledgable about her line of work and is a skilled Birkman-​certified coach. I would recommend her to everyone, and I could not speak more highly of her!

ReNewist is a true innovator in career coaching. So different from traditional general, widely available tricks and tools, Pelin helped me to dig into my experience and challenged me to improve my online and resume representation in ways that I had not before considered. Her work was consistent and helpful while not pushy– and ultimately, she empowered me to reflect and determine the best way to modify my search and collateral to land a rewarding career.

Pelin is an amazing professional, with insights into industries. Her approach makes one realize what it is they are good and poor at doing, and what it is they really want to do.
Her fresh look at one’s resume and Linked In profiles and her valuable feedback is priceless. I recommend this career consulting service to anyone.
