Training canceled 3 times and now I have seen a post on FE WEEK that Redstone are being probed and suspended from recruiting because of the investigations but are still interviewing people
The conversation started and ended on time, was well organized and professional.
I first decided to join Jamie's program after reflecting on my own interests and skills and was unable to nail down how to make a targeted career progression path for myself. By the end, not only was I able to identify the best career path for myself, but I also learned how to be more intentional in working towards that goal, strategically optimize landing coveted roles, and align my personal life and development with my professional one. This last bit really drove home the importance of maintaining a strong body and mind to tackle work at the highest level, while framing mental models for both what motivates me and what holds me back. Jamie is an incredibly passionate coach, providing the right amount of energy and motivation to make sessions engaging with the coachee in mind. I'd highly recommend anyone hoping to reach their seemingly lofty goals or even just to improve their own lives to work with Jamie, regardless of what point you are in your career.
Working with Jamie was nothing short of phenomenal. He helped me accomplish three main things:
• Successfully lateral to a finance sector that I had no prior professional experience
• Land my target job at a leading bank in the city I desired
• Completely changed my life through mindset conditioning, lifestyle coaching, and learning how to dominate my future career
Jamie’s knowledge on navigating the career transition and maximizing your life’s potential is second to none. I had non-typical circumstances compared to other clients, and he tailored the program exactly to fit my needs. He was always prepared for every training session and there was never a wasted moment. Whenever I faced any challenges or had any questions, I knew I could get in touch with Jamie—even outside of training sessions—to receive great advice that proved pivotal in my transition.
I signed up for the program only looking to transition my career, but I gained exponentially more value. Learning about the mental conditioning, the framework for setting personal/professional goals, and leading a fulfilling life was alone worth the price. The skillset that Jamie teaches you will transcend the program’s timeline and benefit you for the rest of your life.
I cannot speak any more highly of my experience with Redstone Coaching. The investment was recouped almost immediately and it launched my career/life in ways I didn’t confidently believe possible.
Working with James and him mentoring me allowed for collaboration and feedback which you can’t get on your own. This helped me build a solid foundation on how to be organized and structure everything to adequately prepare.
The process was very enjoyable, and he laid everything out in a way that is easily understood and able to follow along. He guided me during the process to stay on track in case I went off on any unnecessary tangents. The motivation and energy he had really translated into me wanting to keep striving for the end goal and to make it possible by making smaller and larger goals on a timeline and sticking to them by holding myself accountable. In all reality, there isn’t anything I would say I disliked about the process if anything it allowed me to look at the bigger picture.
Having milestones and a way to reward yourself for reaching each one was one of the most important things I took away. The main idea being having something to always look forward to by planning and acting ahead of time otherwise it will keep being put off. He was able to dissect where you are lacking in certain areas and turn those into strengths as well.
Within a short span of time working together I was able to move into a position of my choosing at a new company. I was able to leverage my experience in a unique way and achieve the desired salary increase based on quantifiable measures rather than speculation.
I already have recommended him to people and will continue to do so in the future as he’s flexible depending on your needs and gets the job done if you are willing to do your part during this process. Moving forward this showed me how to use my time wisely on my own and principles I will continue to apply to my daily life.
Jamie was incredibly helpful in preparation for my private equity interviews and was instrumental in my success of landing my dream job. He was highly effective at drilling down into the fundamental value propositions that I had to offer when it came to crafting my story and was very thorough with feedback and points improvement as we ran through mock interviews. I would highly recommend Jamie and Redstone Coaching to anyone who is looking to break in to a competitive field or for anyone who needs advice or guidance in where they take their career next.
Working with Jamie was an excellent experience. Jamie added a ton of clarity to the job search and prep process. Being a full-time student myself, having someone who was able to give me clear and concise advice saved me so much time and energy.
The first thing I noticed about Jamie was his dedication to me as his client. Jamie answered every text and returned every call, even when it was unscheduled. He was always prepared and very professional. The outcome that we achieved was definitely not what we had planned for. Still, if not for Jamie's help, I would not have been prepared or comfortable, taking this current opportunity. Jamie is an invaluable resource, and I look forward to continuing to work with him consistently in the future.
I would like to share my positive experience working with Jamie to anyone who is just beginning their career search or in search of a new career opportunity.
Jamie gave me the knowledge to help me create a strategy to navigate the career world which was appropriate timing for me as I had just graduated. He helped me create an efficient plan that allowed me to create a goal which ultimately led me to receiving and accepting a full-time offer with a top global PR company.
While his expertise was appreciated every step of the way, learning from him how to show up to and be prepared for a successful interview was the most beneficial to me! I am now very confident in my career search and am happy to have gained valuable, life-long skills I can use with and outside of my career search.
First things first, Redstone Coaching is the real deal. After struggling to transition careers and land a promising position on my own, I hired Redstone Coaching and never looked back.
Networking tactics. Interview prep. Job offer negotiation. These were just a few of the incredibly valuable services that Redstone Coaching provided to me and each of them directly attributed to my success in transitioning industries and landing a competitive position at a tech company in Manhattan.
Above all, what I truly valued the most about Redstone Coaching was the quality of service and how personalized it was to my specific situation. Nothing was cookie cutter and I gained insights that I will continue to put into practice throughout my career.
Whatever effort you put into landing a new job or transitioning careers will undoubtedly be matched and most likely exceeded by this company. You will thank yourself for making the decision in the end.
Redstone Coaching helped me make the transition across industries and job functions. Their networking and interview training empowered me to walk into each conversation feeling prepared and confident. Job searching for a new opportunity while having a full time job can be draining, but after each phone call Jamie's positivity motivated me to keep working towards landing my dream job. Thank you Redstone Coaching for being flexible, organized, and optimistic during the entire process!
First, I would like to say that I really enjoyed my experience with Red Stone Coaching for a few reasons: the client care, resources, and strategy that were provided by Jamie. For me, customer service is a significant part of a business which provides services. I really loved that Jamie was extremely personable, understanding of my needs and catered specifically to them. My initial goal was to find a remote position in the field of Accounting (which was a success). However, after utilizing many of the resources Jamie provided and going through the strategies leading up to achieving my goal I gained confidence in myself and decided to take an even greater step towards the overall big picture of my career (to become a CPA and operate my own firm). In the end, a plan was developed to achieve becoming a licensed CPA and taking a greater step in my career by landing a position higher than my previous position while doing so. My decision allows me the time and also the resources that I need while working towards becoming licensed. Jamie was AWESOME!
Redstone saved me from going down the rabbit hole of blindly submitting job applications online. I didn’t know any different until Redstone gave me the strategy, coaching, mentorship, tools, & resources I needed to have a successful career change. After just a few weeks of working with Redstone I landed a highly competitive sales job at a top tech company in downtown Chicago. Now feel confident that I can find any job I want, no matter where my career takes me.
My experience with Redstone Coaching was motivating and seamless! Jamie was always prepared for our touch-points and brought new ideas to every discussion. While working and searching for new opportunities at the same time may be hectic, Jamie helped me focus on the key areas of networking to get the most out of every discussion. He’s definitely an expert in navigating business relationships. The interview preparation was also very helpful.
I found Jamie very easy to work with and quite helpful during my recent career shift and re-brand, especially with the online & social profiles. Would recommend his services and/or use again if needed.
I choose to work with Redstone Coaching for interview preparation. After my first call with Jamie, it was clear that he was not only incredibly passionate about helping people land their dream job, but that he had the experience and coaching ability to make it happen. Jamie exceeded my expectations every step of the way – he developed a plan for me on very short notice and helped my land an incredible new job. Redstone's interview prep guide and Jamie's coaching was invaluable – I couldn't have done it without him.
I found working through the interview prep guide with Jamie to be most beneficial. It gave me an understanding of the underlying purpose of common interview questions and a roadmap to prepare myself for anything and everything an interviewer may ask. After working through the prep guide with Jamie, I knew that I could give confident, substantive, and articulate answers to questions I'd previously had trouble answering at all.
I was more confident and more prepared for my interview after working with Redstone than I have ever been before. I'm sure that no matter the industry or position you're pursuing, they’ll give you the tools needed to stand out and succeed during your interviews. I cannot recommend Redstone Coaching highly enough.
Jamie has been nothing short of fantastic to work with. No matter the time or day, he found a way to be available. The amount of time and dedication Jamie took with me, was far above what I expected. He is a very dedicated and hard worker, and that showed in every aspect of my experience working with him.
His knowledge, expertise, and professionalism was evident from our first phone call. He is very easy to talk to, personable, understands the many pitfalls, ups/downs, and doubts that come along with searching for a new career. He helped me navigate this tricky period in my career wonderfully. He was instrumental in my success, and I cannot recommend Jamie enough.
