“Martin was a fantastic resource during our conversation. First he helped me gain a new perspective on my career, and framed the process in a new way that made sense for me. As someone who has heard the same process advice over and over, this felt like a ground breaking step. Martin also asked thoughtful questions, and gave direct, actionable advice for next steps. He took the time to make sure all of my questions were answered and that I felt comfortable about moving forward. He also followed up with great notes. I’ll be recommending Martin to friends of mine in similar positions.”
