  • “Desiree was a key asset in my MBA admissions process. What was a daunting and at times overwhelming process, was made manageable working with Desiree. Her wisdom, patience, and excellent communications skills helped guide me through the process. She spent countless hours reading and critiquing dozens of drafts and preparing me for interviews. Even more, she helped me to represent the most authentic version of myself to admissions committees and feel confident in what I had to offer. Thanks to Desiree, I was admitted to 2 top 20 MBA programs, with substantial academic fellowship awards, and waitlisted at 3 additional top programs. She was my secret weapon and I am so grateful for her guidance."

  • “Desiree Christensen helped me to identify my skills and abilities to make myself stand out in my graduate school applications. I cannot thank her enough for her support and guidance throughout the process. The attention and expertise she provided was invaluable.”

    — Chloe, California College of the Arts Masters program

  • "College applications are stressful enough, but having to write different essays for each college, along with the common app essay, was something weighing on me that I needed help to organize. Mrs. Christensen was valuable in condensing all of my ideas into a cohesive common app essay that I submitted to many colleges, and also helped to tailor my shorter essays to each college so that they flowed smoothly. I ended up getting into most of the schools I applied to, and currently attend the University of Notre Dame. Since beginning college, Mrs. Christensen has also helped me edit numerous resumes and is very knowledgeable about the interview process and how to network with people and companies."

  • "Desiree was invaluable during my application process to medical school. The interview experience, which seemed daunting and, at times, insurmountable, was made completely manageable with Desiree’s guidance. She took the time to get to know me: who I am, my aspirations and my past experiences. She helped to identify my strengths and weaknesses and together, we worked on creating authentic, compelling stories for my interviews. Not only did she take the time to help synthesize my experiences, but she also spent hours running mock interviews and highlighting the soft skills that I could improve upon. Since medical schools tend to have different interviewing modalities, Desiree took the time to meet with me before each interview and helped tailor my stories to fit each type. I felt like she was as completely invested in my journey as I was. Prior to meeting with Desiree, I had 4 interviews. Thanks to her guidance I was accepted to 2 different medical schools and waitlisted at 2. I am so thankful for Desiree’s wisdom, experience, and dedication. She was amazing and I cannot thank her enough for all her help! "

She was so knowledgeable about the healthcare industry and what specific qualities they were looking for in a desirable candidate. She was diligent in providing me with guidance on the various job networking paths I was pursuing, and was only a phone call or email away whenever I needed her help! Desiree has been helping me for years - ever since my application to colleges and universities 5 years ago now - and I am so lucky she could help me in my post-graduate career search as well!

  • "When I started my job search after two years out of the marketing/events industry I knew that I needed as much help as I could get! Mrs. Christensen has a calming and uplifting attitude about her and I knew that she would be the perfect career mentor for me. She spent hours with me researching jobs, qualifications, certificates, etc., and took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in my next role. She always gave me confidence in my abilities and even when a role seemed far-fetched to me, she always encouraged me to apply because anything can happen. After working with her for a little over a month, I received an influx of job interviews and ultimately was offered a job in the field I was looking to re-enter. Because of her help with updating my resume, drafting cover letters, and providing salary advice, I was able to negotiate and land the job that is the perfect fit for me. Mrs. Christensen is so amazing and supportive, I can't thank her enough for all of her help in my job search!"
