From Clients
“Carol has been absolutely fantastic to work with. She has deep expertise in crafting an articulate story, both in written format (resume, linked in, networking profile) as well as in oral format. I was able to approach my networking events and interviews with confidence, focus and poise…”
Kathleen Katterhagen – Boston, MA
“Carol has been a wonderful resource for career coaching, business networking, and resume writing. She instills a creative confidence to those new to or re-launching into the workforce and makes the most of every minute spent in consultation. She spoke at a business breakfast at our office, and each in attendance left with a better knowledge of how to network more effectively and how to improve their personal brand.”
Ashley Agnew – Needham, MA
“Carol brings a unique, hands-on approach while assisting recent college graduates to find their first career job. This process is very methodical and tailored towards the strengths and interests of her clients. She constantly challenged me to become more knowledgeable about the finance industry, subsequently improving my credentials and readiness for interviews. As a recent college graduate, it is often quite difficult to navigate the ideal process of finding one’s first job. Carol effectively simplifies this process and is highly involved in various business-related networks. I highly recommend working with Carol and would be happy to attest to her services to any potential clientele.”
Andrew Marks – Needham, MA
“Carol was recommended to me when I left my job after over a decade in retail and began searching for a job in a new field. Carol was amazing and helped me navigate the difficult process of rebranding myself. In addition, Carol also advised me on networking and interviewing skills that I had not previously been exposed to. I was given a new confidence in my own abilities and describing those abilities to others, and was able to quickly find a marketing position at a company that I love! Carol exhibited a clear investment in my future. Her help was truly invaluable to me.”
Emily Saquet – Boston, MA
“I was working in Connecticut and interested in relocating to the Boston area. Carol went above and beyond in not only helping me revise and update my resume, but also in coaching me through potential interview questions. Carol guided me through the entire job search process and even provided me with input regarding salary negotiations. Her expertise and dedication made me feel confident every step of the way.”
Lauren Badard – Hartford, CT
“Carol is an incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, hard-working professional and she helped me immensely throughout my job search and interview process. When I graduated from college, I was struggling to figure out exactly what job to pursue and the process it would take to get it. My conversations with Carol ranged from resume review to detailed interview preparation, which allowed me to gain confidence and present my best self to the interviewers. I learned so much from Carol that will benefit me for many years and I am so thankful to have been able to work with her. I highly recommend her to everyone in need of career coaching because I personally know how successful she is.”

From Parents
“After the college process, the next daunting phase for your children is their attempt to find their first job. We had the pleasure of working with Carol Agranat on this process. Carol provided thought leadership working with our son on setting strategies and goals to help with his job search. This included career direction, interview practice and managing the search process. She built a strong rapport with him and he relied on her guidance and insight when preparing for interviews. Because she had done so much hiring in her career, she knew how he should position his work experience, position his academic knowledge and career aspirations. As a result of those conversations, he came across more confident and was pursued by more companies. Carol is a big advocate of networking and well connected with the financial community. I would highly recommend Carol to any of my peers as her insights, skills and compassion made this process easier to manage.”
Beverly Heyman – Senior Account Executive
“After my daughter graduated college, the lack of knowledge she had regarding the job application process became quickly apparent. We were impressed with how Carol helped her organize the entire undertaking in a step wise fashion. Carol was able to provide constructive criticism to build her resume, focus her job search, and prepare for the interviews. She even provided critical discussion regarding job offers. Carol provides an essential benefit in job search preparation for anyone just graduating college, a masters program, or in transition.”
