I would have liked to hear more about the marketing plan. The rest of the information was good with examples and details but then there was only 1 minute spent on actually marketing your plan. As well, it is good to take when looking for a job but I thought (before I started the course) that it was going to be more about self marketing and brand development applied within an existing job/industry.

What I liked most about the course was the illustration of before and after developing the actual plan. The questions and answers are great resources, specifically the insight on accepting what might affect marketability moving forward. Thanks Moshe!

The presentation style for this course was effective. Many people cannot figure out how to think outside the box and this course provided actionable steps to continue to move forward and increase the likelihood of success.

I thought Moshe gave a great path to target where you personally want to take your career. It provided good questions to ask yourself about where you want to take your career and being your own career coach.

Moshe did a great job of explaining the process. Clear, concise action points, defined, academic and real-world examples were provided. My only real complaint was the uneven audio.

Good course full of reminders on what things you should do to advance in your career or find a new job. The importance of continual networking should not be overlooked.

Fair and honest approach to this miserable activity. I wish someone would market a wand so we could turn this into an event rather than a process. Very nice job Moshe!
