      Working with The Barrett Group did not only help me to fulfill my goals in pursuing new opportunities on a new continent, but also identify my strengths and worth on the market place. I came to realize and apply my experience, strengths, and skills not only during the job search but also in my old position and now in my new area of responsibility. The Barrett Group supported me from the first through the last step despite the challenges associated when looking for new opportunities internationally and during COVID.

      Working with The Barrett Group to land my dream position in the industry, coming from consulting was invaluable. The team is very experienced and helped me feel so much more polished, professional, and prepared for every networking conversation and interview I had. Their method to approach job search was very successful and helped me land a job I would not have been able to land if I had been looking on my own.

      The Barrett Group brought order to my chaos. I was competing for positions with thousands and thousands of other candidates and could not get my resume past AI filters. I knew I was qualified but had no way of getting in front of any decision-makers. TBG helped me approach my job search from several different angles all at the same time. Within three months, I landed a position that checked all of my boxes and more. This was an investment in my happiness that I would make all over again if needed. TBG has uber-talented people at your disposal. Best decision I made to land the best position for me!

      ********, thank you for your kind review! We are delighted to hear that The Barrett Group brought "order to the chaos" of your job search. Indeed, a job search can be very chaotic, especially for those who havent had to conduct one in a long time, because the job market is always evolving. But we stay on top of current trends, so our clients dont have to. We also pride ourselves on offering our clients a tried-and-true methodology that reduces anxiety while it maximizes opportunities. ********, we are very excited about your new opportunity and wish you the very best in this new chapter of your career!

      I had to work very hard to get through this program and there were times I was very frustrated and struggling. That being said, I decided to trust the process and continue forward. I didn't find a new job the way I envisioned, however by learning to advocate for myself I landed a job that is absolutely amazing! Plus there is great growth opportunities to get me back on track with my career plans quickly. I cannot express my appreciation any other way than to simply say "thank you"! Now I look in the mirror and see the value I bring and there is no way to put a dollar amount on that feeling. My recommendation would be for anyone considering this program would be to trust the process and do the work. You will grow and it may hurt a bit, but you can do this!!!!

      ****, thank you so much for this amazing review! We are thrilled that you derived so much value from The Barrett Groups ***************** Program. We call the experience our clients have job search journeys, and your comments illustrate why so well. Clients often cant identify what needs improving about their job search strategy before they come to us. For that reason, we have designed the most comprehensive program possible, and clients who trust the process often benefit in ways they dont anticipate, like you did. Congratulations on your landing and all the best in your new job!

      Went through the full program. Clarity, networking training, etc. and felt like it was perhaps the biggest waste of money Ive ever encountered. For free, watch some ******* videos on how to use linked in & search your network, and then basically reach out to your people asking for ********************* Certainly not worth $10,000. The folks were nice, but were essentially spending sessions with me reading off of a script or teasing me basic functions of linked in. It felt like someone wrote a 50 page training program and then read it to me over the course of 1 hour sessions.It was sold to me as this fantastic company with a great network of recruiters and industry professionals. Not at all the case. They blast out an email to tons of recruiters that arent even in a relevant industry. It was embarrassing to be honest, and I had multiple of THOSE SAME recruiters recommend I stop using the Barrett Group. You could tell they had a bad reputation.I think for everything they went through with me, I got 1 interview dont waste your time or money. What they offer is all very basic, common sense, copy/paste/halfassed insights. A number really!

      I recently started the process with Barrett group and just finished the *************** step. I wasnt sure what to expect, but indeed the program really helped me gain insights on my unique strengths and and skills and helped me better define the value that I can bring to a company. Working with my clarity coach ******* was great, I can absolutely recommend the program to anyone looking for their next step or considering a career change.

      I have just finished the *************** at TBG. I have now achieved a newer level of self-appreciation, better awareness of my skills and values. I have now great focus of what I want to do, what I want to achieve and how. The coach was empathetic, asking the right questions, listening attentively and really supported me along the process.thank you!

      Thank you for your wonderful review! We are delighted that you have landed a job that youre happy with and so quickly! In our 30+ years of business, we have found that no matter how successful an executive has been, its invaluable to periodically step away from that career to reflect on how it aligns with current professional and personal goals because goals evolve throughout life. Thats the essence of our ***************. Job seeking tactics, likewise, change, and we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of those trends. Congratulations, *******!

      The Barrett Group is staffed with highly *******************************. These aren't recruiters or headhunters, they are there to make sure you find the perfect career. And a career is not just another job. The first thing you do is align your lifestyle, your personality, and your goals with the job search. From there The Barrett Group offers experienced and impressive professionals to guide you through your job search.The program is comprehensive. Taking you from high-level goals, to professional resume writing, leveraging social media, engaging your network, interviewing prep, and with a host of powerful career tools, they can connect you to the right recruiters, hiring managers, directors, and C-suite professionals.Some may be concerned about the price. I justified it by assuming an *** of 100%. If that is the result, then why wouldn't I sign up? In reality the *** was much greater with a job offering a much more promising future than where I was. If you've never had a dedicated professional helping you find the right job, consider hiring the Barrett Group; you won't be disappointed.

      Thank you for this wonderful review, ****! We couldnt agree more that a career is not just another job. That is why the focus of our business is career management versus job seeking. With 30 years of experience, we have found that clients in the throes of a career change are far more satisfied when they take the time to align their job search with their values and personal goals before embarking on a job search. After that, we give them the tools to realize their goals and teach them how best to employ them both in the short and the long term. ****, we are thrilled that you have had such a successful landing, and we wish you all the best in the next chapter of your career!

      Excellent service during a stressful time. They were able to help me formulate a plan, understand what I really wanted, get the right resume together, prepare my LinkedIn in profile and eventually ace the interviews. Landing a job in 4 months rather than 12 made it a great financial decision. Everyone was very honest an up front throughout the process.
