    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.

    I am grateful that I decided to work with the Barrett Group. I started my new job search in March of this year. I was employed as an Executive Pastor at a multicultural ************** in ********* **********, and I had two problems; 1. I didn't want my current employer to know that I was considering a new position; 2. I didn't know what I wanted to do since I had worked in church administration for 23 years. I wanted to relocate to ******* to be with my family which limited some of my options so I needed help. After researching and interviewing with several firms I decided to work with the Barrett Group because of their core methodology which helped executives find employment in the unpublished job market, something that resonated with me because I have been the recipient of this process on several occasions. I enjoyed working with my Clarity coach, *****************************, she was easy to work with. She had me take some personal assessments that revealed some surprising information about how I come across to people I work with and lead. This was helpful and I kept this in mind while looking for a new position.The next step was to work with my career consultant, *********************** who taught me the unpublished job market and how to tap into it utilizing LinkedIn. I had a LinkedIn account but never used it, so I had some work to do. **** helped me develop my profile and branding, instructed me on how to research various industries to ultimately come up with an industry to pursue where I could easily utilize my transferable skills. I started looking for positions like director of development, and director of major gifts. I ended up landing a position at a non-profit organization (Director of Development) utilizing the methodology I learned with the Barrett Group and never had to fill out a job application.I strongly recommend The Barrett Group to anyone who is looking to land an Executive Position.*****

    *****, thank you for this wonderful review! Our whole team is celebrating the wonderful success you had in transitioning from one industry to another in a new city, and so speedily! We thank you for crediting The Barrett Group methodology and your consultants for your success. Our methodology is proven to have helped so many of our clients because (as you know from your own experience throughout your career) using the unpublished market is how 75% of executives land new jobs. But the methodology also requires a client to move his feet to get the greatest benefit from the strategy. You have demonstrated an extraordinary effort in that regard and to great success! We congratulate you on your new position and wish you the very best in your career going forward!~The Barrett Group Team
