“It is difficult to assign one word to the role TampaBay-Job-Links played in my path to finding a new career. The process began with a redefinition of my previous employment status and with this redefinition came a different outlook on my life. It was only then that I was prepared to actually begin pursuing a career. In the following days I received coaching and guidance from you and your team in the form of group, one-on-one meetings, emails, and even personal phone calls. I very much appreciate the personal attention and time you devoted to me and my resume. Your efforts made an incredible impact.”
– Michael, Job-Seeking Candidate
“After going through downsizing and losing my career of 15 years, I had no idea what the new protocols were for a seasoned professional. I literally had not looked for a job for 20 years, because my path always just led me to something. The end of last year, I found myself unemployed and unprepared to enter the life of a new job seeker. TBJL was a Godsend to me. They helped me to create a viable résumé and worked with me on interview techniques and presentation. The staff was by my side through my emotional ups and downs as months passed with no job prospects on the horizon. The “black hole” of job searching via online apps was frustrating and humiliating….it’s almost impossible in this day and age to actually talk to someone in person regarding an open position. TBJL continued to give me the encouragement to keep trying and helped me to at least get my foot in the door of employers that I would not have been able to reach on my own. I finally found a position, taking a 60% cut in pay, but at least I didn’t lose everything. As I continue on my journey, I know that I will be able to move forward because of the help and encouragement from the wonderful people at TBJL.”

“I want to personally thank the entire staff of TBJL for all of their help with my career change. After being in one industry for over ten years, I found it very challenging to find a new opportunity until I was introduced to your organization. They were able to re-create my résumé for my new career path, show me jobs that were not advertised, and the most crucial part was the interview preparation with Robyn. TBJL is a vital part of finding my new career. Thanks for everything.”
