Having spent 5 months job searching, with no success, Stay Nimble was recommended to me.

They gave good, practical advice; sort out external profile, sort out CV and work on interview technique.

Interest increased and a job offer was forthcoming in around two months.

I started work as a Legal Support Assistant at the beginning of this year - and I wasn't abandoned after, I still have time left to use in the future.

I can say for sure that Stay Nimble has changed the way I look at the hiring process and the need for upskilling.
I would highly recommend Stay Nimble to anyone looking to enhance their career path or finding themselves at crossroads. 

The level of care, expertise, and personalised attention they provide is truly excellent, making them a standout choice for career coaching services.
