  • “Jacqui Porter is amazing! Full stop. Hire her. Trust her. Listen to her. She was my career coach almost a year ago when I was spinning my wheels coming out of a 14 year career pause for my family. The last competitive interview I had had was in 1997 and I was struggling with a Y2K playbook. Jacqui brought me into the modern era, helped me revamp my cv, linked in, cover letter, and opening interview pitch. Most importantly, she helped me find my misplaced mojo. Once I started working with her, every cover letter I sent got me an interview and I landed a job running a city agency within 3 months. She’s amazing! You will be lucky to work with her.”
