We have a college senior graduating May 2018 with a degree in mechanical engineering. A. is a very bright young man but is limited in his social and communication skills. We worry that he will be at a disadvantage when he applies and interviews for employment because he might not present himself in the best light. In addition, our son is one stubborn young man who resists the wisdom imparted by his parents (who clearly don't know anything).

Enter Ilene Rein.

Ilene is a ninja, yoda, a saint. Ilene has cracked through that shell of our son's stubbornness by demonstrating that what she offers clearly works. Ilene has a keen eye and an acute sense of trends in job seeking and hiring practices. She is also really good at identifying a client's strengths, weaknesses and developing a plan to meet his or her unique needs. Ilene is also a great motivator, a one-woman cheerleading team. We believe in being proactive so we got Ilene on board to start preparing A. for the world of work. Just this year Ilene helped A. with his resume working over every single detail and guiding him on cover letters that 'popped'. Prospective employers have started noticing through Linkedin and other sources.

​

Currently Ilene is coaching A. on interview skills and the value of the 'schmooze' factor. He'll never be a social butterfly but she's bringing out the best in him. She has instilled in him a confidence that we never thought possible. We have no doubt that with Ilene's guidance, encouragement, and inspiration A. will have the skills and motivation to meet the challenges of job hunting in 2018!
