Company Details

I had setup a call on 12/16/2022 but no one called me.

Always kept appointment times. Excellent listening skills. I would definitely recommend this company.

I accidentally signed up for the wrong service first but they were very good at redirecting to me to the appropriate services for my needs. I spoke with a recruiting coach for 30min and her feedback was honest, constructive, and helpful. They provide good descriptions of what you are getting for money with their services and not "just a quote." They are also very response to emails and making appointments. Highly recommend!

Having been away from corporate environment's for a few years, I was finding my search hindered by lack of a clear and concise message. Not only was this slowing my search, it had begun to affect my confidence, which was showing through in interviews. Kathy's help in crafting a resume and cover letter which accurately told my story in a manner than I could speak on confidently and proudly breathed new life into my search, I only wish I would have found this service earlier.

Amazing! Words cannot express what Kathy Harrell-Latham has been able to do for me. I really thank God for meeting with her. Just after about a week or so of using the resume and LinkedIn she helped me with, has yielded so very great results with lots of interviews and contacts from recruiters. Before Kathy, my job search yielded no good result. I'm not great with words as she is so expertly, but i just have to express these little words of sincere overflowing appreciation to Kathy's excellent work with me that exceeded expectations. I'm so very grateful. And she was so very easy to work with pulling almost all the weight. Much appreciated. Please compensate her very well. She deserves so much for relieving her clients so well. Such a great help for the amount of money paid for her services. Thank you Kathy and Contingent Plan! Much appreciated.

I wanted just straight forward information and price on a resume.....I don't want to have to hunt through a site.

Kathy was very thorough with my resume and cover letter. She understood what I was looking for and was able to my skills and experience in language hiring managers are looking for.

I needed support with my resume and application process in a very short term. The Contingent Plan was able to quickly assess and write my career experience to focus on a professional career change and to meet the specific application process. As I am seeking a change in my career and will need additional support I will continue to use The Contingent Plan for ongoing requirements. Efficient, expert and strong writing and communication is a small highlight of this experience.

It was really helpful to get my resume done with Kathy She is amazing and did my resume so good I got compliments from all the employers about how good my resume was.

Kathy is spectacular!! She is very helpful in understanding your skills and guiding you through the steps to make you stand out. I would highly recommend The Contingent Plan as a service to help you take the next step in your career!

I can't say enough good things about Kathy and The Contingent Plan. Kathy was responsive and timely. Within a week, I had a brand new resume that brought about an immediate response and multiple interviews. Her service is absolutely worth the money and in my opnion, a bargain! Without Kathy and her amazing resume writing skills, I know for a fact that I wouldn't have gotten as many interviews as I currently have - she is magic! I couldn't reccomend her higher; in fact, I reccomended her to my own family members and dear friend and they both are also incredibly happy. Hire Kathy...you won't be sorry.

I couldn't be happier about my experience working with Kathy. Instead of simply reworking my resume and calling it a day, she took the time to get to know my career interests and my goals, and from there helped me to refine my message in my resume and interviews. She was also outstandingly helpful in suggesting positions to apply to, and in encouraging me to plan ahead and take the steps I needed to be able to reach my goals. Finally, and importantly, I felt very listened to throughout the entire process. I was never told to settle for a position, or to change my expectations for what I want to achieve. Instead, Kathy worked with me to develop concrete steps towards reaching those expectations. Her help was more than I could have asked for!

Kathy’s career coaching was so helpful to my husband as he navigated his job search. She provided detailed feedback on his resume and cover letters and provided sound strategy and advice for his search. She conducted a moot interview and her questions were spot-on. He felt extremely prepared for his interviews. I would highly recommend her to others considering a career transition or seeking additional guidance or resources while looking for new opportunities.

I found Kathy brought wise insight and suggestions based on actual experience to my resume. Her approach helped craft a more thorough picture of my experience and background. I would definitely recommend her and her work,

From the initial meeting until an accepted job offer, it was a great experience that lasted about 3 months. I worked with an amazing coach that helped me focus my job search and build my value proposition. I got invaluable insight and help with my resume that helped land interviews, and then interview prep that gave me the confidence to ace them and receive a job offer at my top target organization.

Kathy’s help rewriting my resume generated more job leads. Her insights were helpful in providing more focus in my job search. She is a pleasure to work with.

Excellent Investment I was stuck in a job I wasn't happy with, making less than I could, and had no idea what the next step in my career should be. I did some research and contacted a number of career coaches and resume specialists. Of everyone I talked to, I liked Kathy's intelligence and direct manner over the phone. I hired her almost immediately. Kathy and the Contingent Plan is the smartest money I've ever spent on myself. I am in a new job making 55% more than I was and I have a career trajectory laid out in front of me that has immense promise to grow more. What's more I am challenged and enjoy my work. I used the Contingent Plan's services for career coaching, resume writing, and cover letters. Kathy knows what employers are looking for and has impactful insights for the Twins Cities region. She will give you useful actionable advice and suggest strategies that will generate traction in the job market. She reworked my resume thoroughly and I was getting phone calls and emails almost every day sometimes from recruiters I hadn't even applied to. These phone calls and emails were just the first step to 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round interviews that allowed me to have my pick of the employment that was best for me. I did the grind of applying to hundreds of jobs, but she made sure my resume was noticed and I was focusing on the right roles. In summation, I cannot recommend the Contingent Plan highly enough. It's one of the the best career choices I ever made. Nate O
