It's one thing to have us say JobBound will dramatically improve your chances to get a job, but it's quite another to hear what our satisfied customers have to say.

Here's the scoop from a handful of happy clients.

"A few months ago, I turned to JobBound to update my resume and help with my cover letter. Thirty minutes after emailing them off to the top agencies in Chicago, I had an interview set up with BBDO. I've also been invited to DDB, DraftFCB and Arc. For me, JobBound was what it took to get my foot in the door at all the places I wanted to be.

"My experience with JobBound has been nothing short of wonderful! I have gained so much out of Brad's inspiring motivational talks. Thanks to JobBound's expertise, my new resume has reaped rewards in the form of the American Advertising Federation's Most Promising Minority Students Honor Roll recognition, as well as countless positive feedback. I am now working at the Allstate Corporation as part of the NASCAR Diversity Internship Program -- and I couldn't be happier. Needless to say, JobBound has helped me jump start my career!"

"To say that JobBound contributed to my post-graduate sucess would be an understatement. Every college claims to prepare their students for 'the real world', but I soon realized after graduating that JobBound's advice was that last essential step in preparing myself for the transition. If you're serious about your career there's no question about it, go with JobBound!"

"I always thought my resume was too wordy, but couldn't figure out how to cut it down. Hoping my inadequate resume would land me a job anyways, I applied to numerous companies for an internship my sophomore year and ended up handing out golf balls and clubs at a mini golf course. Since being the put-put girl wasn't going to land me a job in advertising, I had JobBound revamp my resume my junior year. I was amazed at how impressive my accomplishments could look on paper after an hour of help.

After sending out my new resume, I received invites for 5 interviews within days and was nominated as the University of Illinois sole candidate for the Vance L. Stickell Memorial Student Internship Program. Competing with 80 other nominees in the country, I was selected as one of 18 students to be awarded the scholarship and was given an internship at MediaVest Worldwide in NYC for the summer! Without JobBound's advice, my cluttered resume would have never passed the "five second test" and I would have missed out on the best career-advancing opportunity of my life!"

"I wanted to thank you for the amazing resume that you created for me! I came to JobBound during my senior year of college before I was scheduled to attend a job fair at the Major League Baseball Winter Meetings in New Orleans.  I was thrilled when everyone expressed how impressed they were with the quality of my resume...which I obviously owe all to JobBound! I received five job offers that weekend!  Despite all of the great offers, I ended up taking a position down in Daytona Beach, Florida working first for Daytona International Speedway and now International Speedway Corporation (the mother company of Daytona and twelve other NASCAR racing facilities). You do great things! Thanks again!"

"I must admit that I was somewhat nervous when I first began my career search. Although I had various professors and family friends critique my resume, I still did not feel completely comfortable with it. All of my worries vanished after JobBound revamped my whole resume in less than an hour! I was amazed at the improvements he made, and I can honestly say that no one else who critiqued my resume suggested the same kind of changes that he did. After handing out my resume at the Career Fair at Miami University, I got invitations to interviews with 17 different companies! I actually had to turn down most of those invitations simply due to lack of time to interview with all of them. Six job offers later, I finally accepted an amazing offer from Johnson & Johnson. They started out with 10,000 candidates and narrowed them down to thirty offers -- I am one of the thirty! Without JobBound's help I would not have even received an interview for this competitive program! I will recommend the services of JobBound to all of my friends who are still searching for jobs."

"The funny thing is, I thought I had a good resume but I wasn't getting any offers from the jobs I applied for. I figured I would give JobBound a try since nothing else was working; also, if I did get a job, the money I spend would pay for itself once I got hired. When I received my new resume, not only was I pleased with the product they provided me, I was amazed at myself from my own resume! It sounded so good, I wanted to hire myself!"
