If you want your CV to be one that is picked by recruiters or hiring companies, I highly recommend Bettie. Her writing skills and formatting is top-notch and she is extremely knowledgeable on new recruiting practises including ATS. Also went through their interview coaching and as a result, knew going into the interview that I would be the best candidate - it made a definite difference in how I came across, and I got the job!

Fabian Ebohon

I can highly recommend Bettie Van Straaten. I met Bettie just at the right time.... a time I was making a significant career change. I met Bettie through a colleague's referral. I have yet to meet Bettie personally, but it is like she knows me so well. The approach she took when assisting with updating my CV and LinkedIn profile was brilliant. Bettie is proactive and continues to provide excellent guidance and recommendations to me. Through Bettie I learnt about Common Purpose an incredible organisation that I have had the privilege of attending their Global Leaders Programme. Thank you Bettie, for exceeding my expectations!
