"Jo was amazing! I can’t recommend her enough from beginning to end she virtually held my hand, resume, cover letters, linked in, elevator pitch, interview plan and eve some relaxation suggestions to calm my nerves.

We had a plan…. 3 dream job applications… made it past the first round in all of them, offered my first preference! If I ever needs support again I will be back!”

"Reaching forty was daunting enough, but the idea of making a career transition in my forties felt even more overwhelming. When someone first mentioned the Partner Employment Assistance Program (PEAP) funding for eligible ADF partners, I did what anyone would do—I almost broke Google searching for career coaching options before landing on Jo’s Career Coaching..

Jo’s sessions are well-organised and tailored to fit your unique situation, lifestyle, and needs. She has a warm, approachable nature and a genuine passion for her work. She helps you clarify your goals, explore potential career paths, and identify areas for growth and change. I’ve learned so much about my own abilities and strengths, especially through the career typing test and the insights into my leadership personality traits. These elements were especially valuable in helping me understand myself better.

I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and found it incredibly valuable. Looking back, I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner! I highly recommend Jo Macdonald Careers, to anyone feeling uncertain about their career or considering a transition.”
