Student Comments

Restarting a professional career is definitely not easy, especially in another language or country. I was lost. But I want to let you know that you were my first point of contact here in the US and you helped me a lot. I got a contractor job at Google and I couldn’t be happier. I just want to say thanks for your support and amazing job.

We did it! I cannot imagine this success without you Kathilynn! You helped me with a lot of things! Together we built the resume, LinkedIn page, cover letter and you trained me how to go through the interview and employment process. I really appreciate your help, your support, friendliness and professionalism. I am grateful to you for being involved and passionate about your client’s success and goals. Thank you so much.

I want to thank Kathilynn Lehmer for taking her time to help me. We started in August meeting once a week until November. She has helped me so much from improving my resume to my interview skills. She motivated me to continue looking for any opportunity even though I was feeling like I would never find a job in my field. I am glad to announce with her help i will be starting a new job through a contractor at Intel as a manufacturing engineer technician. I believe without her help and guidance I would still be searching. No words can express my gratitude for Kathilynn Lehmer along with Palo Alto Adult School that gave me an opportunity to expand my skill set and obtain a new job.
