I cannot thank you enough for meeting with Oliver. He was on such a high when we left, as was I! He feels he has so much clarity now and is super excited about working towards his goal of getting into his course.

Working with Career Ahead took away a lot of my angst about achieving a high ATAR for a course. I understand my pathway options and feel confident about the remainder of Year 12.

Thank you for providing such a valuable career coaching service. It was beyond helpful and it has certainly clarified my direction.

I wanted to thank Career Ahead for the amazing placement that has been arranged for me, I still cannot believe it…all I thought of was to call my parents back in France as I was so delighted - and maybe a little overwhelmed I am so looking forward to starting on Thursday!

Had an amazing morning today! It was a bit nerve wracking at the beginning, but later, thanks to this fantastic and super friendly team from Career Ahead, it was a pleasure being part of this assessment centre and gaining insights about how they work.

Career Ahead has long been a trusted advisor and partner in developing customised, student-centric solutions that are outcome-focussed. Aside from value-adding to the student experience, Career Ahead’s diverse range of industry partners offers solutions across a breadth of disciplines.

I would highly recommend a one-one career coaching session with Career Ahead. The coach was excellent, and I liked how she facilitated with questions, that lead me to my own goals. I definitely gained a lot of clarity and will be taking advantage of the services further and would recommend it to fellow PhD students

I consider Career Ahead to be extremely professional and crucially knowledgeable in program development for the education sector. Their capability, and agility, to deliver on time critical projects with significant benefit to the student experience delivering employability resources has been paramount in the success of our business partnership.

Career Ahead’s capacity to manage a large scale, complex career education projects is built on a premise of sound and collaborative planning and ongoing evaluation with the key stakeholders they are working with. Their work is learner centred and based on current research and best practice in career development, profiling and planning resulting in effective student choices and better student outcomes.

Career Ahead has provided me with the tools to achieve my potential. I am a happier athlete with the confidence that I will continue to succeed beyond footy.

I recently engaged Career Ahead to prepare me for a senior job interview. Katea spent time working with me to change my mindset prior to the interview, empowering me and significantly improving my self-confidence. My interview was highly successful! I couldn’t have done any better.

Shannon is fabulous to work with. She has supported me to clearly articulate my strengths, appreciate my value and undertake a number of simple actions to significantly improve my career success.

The Career Ahead program helped me to improve my communication and adapt to Australian work culture. The industry placement was excellent, it provided me with opportunities to grow my professional network and helped me learn what’s out there for me after I have finished my studies. It was a remarkable experience.

I still cannot believe the placement that Career Ahead arranged for me. I was a little overwhelmed when meeting my industry supervisor because it was so amazing. I was delighted.

Career Ahead’s training is second to none with a 'real world' focus which substantially improved the presentation of my resume and my interviewing skills. This allowed me to secure my desired graduate role in the finance industry!

Sharyn has been brilliant working with and supporting my teenagers into their young adult lives. Her ability to understand the individual and your openness and encouragement of future pathways for them has been absolutely awesome! Thank you, Sharyn Donaghy.

He [my son] came away from your meeting very enthusiastic and excited about what lies ahead and all of the opportunities that await him. Thank you for joining our ’tribe’ and for lighting a spark that I haven’t seen for a long time.

Sharyn has an incredible way to make me comfortable in sharing my story and what I see my options as and helping me set steps to follow in order to make very important life decisions. This has given me a burst of inspiration for me to work through my current circumstances where otherwise I'm not sure how or when I would have been sure where to start.

I took the opportunity as soon as I could to catch up with Sharyn and talk about my future, helping me see that future. Sharyn assisting me opened up my options for what’s best for me! She has an amazing presence about her and really easy to talk to which made it easier for me to open up about me to her!
