I was convinced that this is the kind of bespoke help I needed a completely different way of approaching a career reflection challenge.And then Philippa stepped in and spent hours and hours with me decoding my career including self discovery and brand discovery consultations that lead to an amazing well articulated career description, a differentiated skills list and most importantly, a brand positioning that would breathe oxygen into my thinking process.That was followed by some out of the world discussions with another expert who stress-tested my self-reflection and gave me some very helpful advice on how I should be going about with the next steps of my journey including sharing his experience as an HR leader and how he would rate me if I were to meet him for a job.

At the same time, I wanted to avoid any advice that injected overly creative rhetoric which could make me look and feel overdressed.The Arielle team gave me exactly what I wanted AND more!! Over a period of weeks I met some absolutely brilliant HR leaders at Arielle who completely transformed how I looked at myself and the kinds of professional choices I’d make in the months to come.The initial conversation convinced me that this isn’t just another ‘resume writing service’ which would just templatize my work and throw it back at me and vanish. Someone who could help me relook at my entire career journey, help me sift through the tons of things I’ve done, get me to step out of myself and relook at all that information and to help craft a succinct story based on hard facts. And so I started exploring and asking around about who could help me think straight.I wasn’t really after a resume writer but someone who’s much more then that. After many many years in the same organisation and a rather fulfilling 22 years, the whole idea of trying to come up with a resume was not just a hard thing to pen down, going back to the job market to look for something felt so daunting especially with a hazy head. A few months ago, I was on the lookout for some help to rethink and articulate my long career story so I could embark on a new journey.
