CAREER COACHING

Are you feeling lost and unsure of your next steps? Are you feeling stuck? Have you been out of the workforce for a few years and want to return? Are you approaching retirement and feeling mixed emotions? Wondering if entrepreneurship is for you? I’m here to listen and guide you through your transition. My career consulting sessions offer a safe space for coaching, self-exploration, option discovery, decision-making, personal branding, as well as support through future thinking and mental health.

You will learn more about yourself in terms of values, interests, strengths, personality, ambition, and get crystal clear on your project. Together, we will explore industry trends, conduct occupational research, consider work environments, and consider education options to create a strategic plan for your career development. I will uncover your potential and prepare you for the future! Select

RÉSUMÉ WRITING

Do you need advanced résumé solutions as an experienced, senior professional or executive? Is it hard for you to articulate your achievements and do you need your documents written to the latest international standards? No one will be as excited as I am to hear your career story starting from school. I will coach on résumé writing with the supporting documents that best represent you from scratch.

Effective résumé writing is unique to you and your value proposition, and should be tailored to specific country standards, the targeted job, and the right keywords. It should also have a professional layout and design that is easily parsed by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) when applying online. This may also include a cover letter and LinkedIn profile makeover to create a complete portfolio. Select

JOB SEARCH STRATEGY

You decided to look for a new position. Well done! But what’s the most efficient way to start? Today, employers expect job seekers to express their interest personally, as you are competing with thousands of other candidates for the same vacancy. Learning how to search for employment and network socially are skills you can acquire. My structured strategies will allow you to know which paths to engage in.

Job searching, whether you are currently employed or unemployed, can be challenging and stressful in today’s economy. While there is a lot of information online, it’s helpful to have a plan that fits your lifestyle and addresses the challenges you may face. My goal is to help you find a job quickly, considering the specifics of the country you are targeting. I will help you focus your efforts efficiently, empower you to make informed decisions, and pinpoint your next move!

INTERVIEW PREPARATION

The employer invited you to an interview. Great! Now what? Preparing for a job interview and overcoming anxiety can be challenging. There is a big difference between what you think you’ll say and what you end up saying. I will help you craft a strategic plan to get positive results at every step of the process. As a senior recruiter who screens and invites shortlisted candidates for interviews, I can show you what to expect and how to effectively convey your value.

Learn how to present yourself professionally and follow best practices before, during, and after the interview. Together, we will clarify your value proposition and target to make a positive impact from the start. We will develop the conversational skills needed to differentiate yourself from other candidates and answer various types of questions. I will guide you through the different types of interviews and prepare you to nail them! Select

Career Coaching: The space to self-reflect on yourself inside out, including who you are, your values, strengths, and interests, and how to make sense of findings in the current economy while creating a plan for a safe transition locally or internationally. The program includes exercises to help you re-think everything you knew about yourself in the workplace, honor your achievements, recognize your leadership style and what makes you unique, and project yourself towards a beautifully created and designed future.

Answer various questions to highlight relevant achievements and create an industry-appropriate graphic résumé from scratch, a fully developed LinkedIn profile with a banner and content creation recommendations, a cover letter, a reference page, and a portfolio assessment as applicable. The program includes a résumé strategy session to teach you how to update all your documents after landing a job and re-target them for the next opportunity. The process takes around 40 hours to complete.

Job Search Strategy: The chance to learn the ins and outs of modern job search, including where to start, how to apply online, networking online and offline, informational interviews, a push and pull strategy, using LinkedIn for your search (confidential or not), understanding the “hidden job market,” positioning yourself, remaining consistent, and overcoming grief. The program includes communication templates and resources.

Interview Preparation: The occasion to discover Recruiters’ and Hiring Managers’ expectations, prepare before, during, and after the interview, role-play the actual interview to practice telling pertinent and relevant stories and gain confidence, present yourself with a competitive edge, answer common and difficult questions, and research how to negotiate an offer. The program includes useful communication templates and resources to assess and improve yourself.

Testimonials

L.A. – Corporate Finance Manager Canada

I can’t thank Rita enough for all her support during my job search process. She has provided essential advice and guidance that will continue to serve me throughout my career. I went on a steep learning curve for upgrading my resume and cover letter, applying for jobs, networking, and communicating with employers. Her practical approach allowed me to apply the steps in a systematic way and facilitated my job search. Rita goes beyond her way and she is always available to answer questions and give tips. Team Rita rocks!

M.A. – Medical Doctor USA

Working with Rita was a smooth and professional experience, since day one she had the patience required to dissect and explain the process of drafting a CV and establishing a timeline for the project. Even though the process was a two parties one, Rita’s added value to the whole product exceeded my expectations. She was always patient and one email away, sometimes on her PTO! Her attention to detail is uncanny, and the way she manages to make your transferable skills sound fit for a job are impressive. She delivered the work in a timely manner. I first reached out to Rita based on people’s feedback, I now understand their testimonials!

N.F. – Software Developer Lebanon

Working with Rita made me answer questions I had buried deep thinking I could never answer. It helped me find the courage and confidence I needed in order to succeed, which I did, in a very short amount of time because of our continuous improvement and practice. It opened up my eyes to endless opportunities, and it transformed me into a whole different person. A bolder, more self-assured person.

B.M. – Technical Services Director Canada

I am ecstatic about the results; I strongly recommend Rita Kamel’s professional resume writing services. Rita took me on a journey to update and revamp my resume and interview preparation “do’s & don’ts”. Her expertise, coupled with her collaborative and innovative spirit, made her the go-to expert in this area. From my first e-mail interaction with Rita, you can tell that her engagement is very professional, and the review process is both elaborate and well-structured. She made me go over my experience from the start and extract my achievements, which reflect and align with the new target position.

J.A. – General Manager UAE

Having been in full-time employment since leaving University and deciding to take some time out from work, I realized my old CV would require serious updating before making the return to work life. After making several enquiries Rita came highly recommended by an acquaintance to assist me with updating my CV. Rita has proven herself to be an extremely experienced professional and responsive person with great attention to detail. Her proactive and honest, yet friendly approach has made it a pleasure working to update my CV and LinkedIn profile. I now feel much more confident: my redesigned CV is tailored toward gaining a suitable position in a competitive industry.

COO / General Manager
Rita, thank you so much for your help, guidance, enthusiasm, fabulous knowledge and overall positive and energetic attitude. I know that I made the right decision to use you for my resume. I cannot speak highly enough of the assessments that you provide, the knowledge, and helpful and patient guidance. Your professional experience and qualifications made a big difference in my resume.

M. A. - Lebanon

Ethics & Assurance Coordinator
Rita managed to teach me a lifelong skill about how to interview and level up when it comes to my career aspirations. Especially in how to answer the most common yet stress inducing question "Tell me about yourself?". She guided me throughout the process from interview to post interview to check on how I performed and how I felt after the interview. What's special is I felt I am talking to someone who really wants me to succeed!

J.W. - Qatar

Account Manager
I approached Rita during an interview process at one of the tier 1 global technology vendors. Based on her extensive experience in HR, Rita unveiled to me the tricks and methods I should adopt to stand out among hundreds of other applicants.

She guided me through a set of actions in a very scientific manner, fine-tuned my strategies and not only made them unique, but uniquely relevant. Not to mention the grade of encouragement she had conveyed to deliver my presentation and get selected for the role.

I would highly recommend Rita for any type of guidance, consultation and career advice.

F.T. - Lebanon

NGO Project Coordinator
Rita opened my eyes to what I was doing wrong in my pursuit to find a new job. She showed me in a short time and efficient way how to make my experience more appealing to recruiters. She showed me another perspective to finding a job and made me realize why I didn't stay for a long time with previous organizations I worked for. Rita helped me put things into perspective and taught me that I should appreciate my achievements and champion them in order to land the right job for me while having what I want for a job as a priority.

M.R. - Cyprus

Senior Project Manager
Choosing to work with Rita was a great decision. As someone looking to change careers, she helped me put on paper how my experience and skills are relevant to my target industry. Rita's methodological approach also allowed me to take an outside look at my career so far in a new light and reminded me of achievements I have forgotten about. Throughout the process, Rita was always responsive, attentive, and always had useful advice and feedback.

A.K. - Lebanon

Sales Manager
Rita has helped me in more ways than one and I found just one session with her very enlightening.

I can only imagine how she can help when given more than one session, kudos to you Rita!

G.J. - Lebanon

Thanks to Rita’s feedback, I was able to figure out some important points behind the reasons my LinkedIn profile and CV aren’t getting noticed. Added to that, her words were much needed to reaffirm my confidence and boost my motivation. With her I am sure one will land the desired opportunity.
