Jillian Lucas

Jillian was great to meet with and even was able to squeeze me in last minute before my interview. I left feeling confident and assured that I had all the tools I needed to ace my interview. Her recap email was a great tool for me to review prior to my interview.

Jillian was great & so friendly! We were able to discuss a lot during our conversation which was very helpful. I had a lot of AHA moments during our meeting and feel more hopeful than I have in a while. Her follow up email was amazing! So many resources & options I didn’t know about or hadn’t considered. I’m very excited to dive into the info she shared & will definitely seek her services/expertise again.

Jillian is a wonderful coach! She made me feel at-ease and more confident about myself. We came up with tangible strategies for interview prep, positive mindset, and personal next steps in my job seeking and well-being journey. I've also mustered the confidence to send three informational interview emails since we met—that's a big deal! Feeling back on track thanks to Jillian.

Working with Jillian was really helpful! She provided me with a job search strategy that was tailored to my timeline and goals and also provided me with advice to improve my LinkedIn and resume. She did not rush our session and made sure that all of my questions were answered. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed and confused about how to "rebrand" myself, but after our session I have a lot more clarity on what steps to take and also how to focus my time. The compiled resources after our session were concrete and very helpful. I had never worked with a career coach and was wary that it would mostly be focused on confidence building, but it was packed with specific advice and I was left with a genuine strategic plan. Jillian did not try to "upsell" me and made the most of our time together. It was definitely worth the investment.

Jillian was so helpful in building my confidence to apply for product manager roles. With her support, I figured out the types of roles I was interested in, wrote a targeted resume and cover letter, and landed a new job with a 45% salary increase! Our calls were thorough, and Jillian went above and beyond, checking in between appointments, staying on longer than scheduled, and making sure I had everything I needed to succeed in my job search. Thanks for your support, Jillian!

Jillian really helped me over-prepare for my interview. I took in all of her suggestions and continued to go over examples of how I could showcase my skills and attributes. By the time I had my interview, I was actually hoping for the chance to answer more questions since I was so ready for them. Jillian is amazing at what she does and I am SO pleased that I signed up for this session with her. Best investment and my confidence was really boosted. She really helped me feel prepared in so many ways....from what to wear, post-interview questions, thank you notes, etc. I found out I was was one of two candidates recommended for hire and now just waiting to hear the final decision.

Jillian's guidance improved my interview performance ten-fold. She provided me with effective strategies for channeling self-confidence. Her concern for my success in the interview was apparent. Jillian is a talented and kind career/interview coach. I wish I had her help from the beginning of my career!

Jillian was very helpful! She made me feel at ease and provided some invaluable advice and tips. I'll never think of interviewing the same way again. Truly a wonderful coach!

Jillian is a top-notch coach. Right away she made me feel at ease during our session. What stood out to me is her communication and active listening skills - we only had 75 mins together, but even within the first 20 mins, I felt like she really got to know me professionally. She was then able to draw those insights in and provide feedback on areas for improvements that is specific to me. After our session, she also provided very thorough and tailored notes for me to study. I would work with Jillian again in a heartbeat!

Jillian is very positive and provides concrete advice with action items. It was a wonderful experience working with her.

In our short session, Jillian was an immense help in assessing my current situation and providing unique insight into several possible avenues as I look to switch up my career field. I really appreciated her encouraging style and thoughtful line of questioning. Even though we only had one call together, I left with a list full of action items. Plus her follow up email was super useful and had a ton of additional professional development worksheets. Thanks Jillian!

Jillian was excellent. It has been a difficult year for me, professionally, and Jillian helped me clarify how to network with people to create advocates for me. She also had a number of suggestions about my resume, determining my transferable skills as I look to transition into new job fields and where to look to continue in tangential fields.

Jillian was such a great help. First she helped me confirm that deep down, I knew a job change was in my best interests. Despite having maneuvered my way through the job hunting process successfully in the past, this time I felt the services of a professional could make the process more efficient and fruitful. I got precisely the level of advice, perspective and nudging I needed as well as some tips I hadn't tried before! If I'm in an unclear situation going forward (for example, in evaluating offers) I won't hesitate to reach out to her again. Her clarity is a gift.

Jillian was an amazing coach! She helped me to prepare for an important interview that I have coming up, she took the time to understand the information I sent to her prior to our meeting and she really listened while I talked through situations and gave me specific action plans.

I highly recommend Jillian and hope to work with her in the future!

Jillian is an amazing coach! She was very patient, accommodating, and understanding of my situation . . . including the fact that on the day of our session, I experienced technical challenges. Even then, I never felt rushed when our discussion finally took off. Jillian is a good and very patient listener, and even though one feels helpless in her job search situation (I did), she remained optimistic for you! She’s sincerely encouraging, and she believes you have it in you to get the job you want. Jillian provided simple, but doable action items during our online discussion. And shortly thereafter, she sent an email highlighting the items we went through and that I’m encouraged to work on. She even added to send her an update of my progress; the personal touch and sincerity are much appreciated! Even as we wound down on our discussion, Jillian ensured that I have asked all the questions I want to address. She really wants you to succeed! I really enjoyed working with Jillian. This is the first time I had worked with a career coach, and she made me feel comfortable and welcomed from the get-go.

Jillian is an excellent coach in that she's very easy to chat with and offers excellent feedback and advice. All in all, I found my session to be incredibly valuable and well worth the investment.

Jillian was super sweet in squeezing me in last minute before I had a big interview. She gave me some excellent tips, especially how to answer that dreaded "so tell me about yourself" question I've always stumbled on. She was very friendly, kind and encouraging. After our session she sent me some notes, more questions to practice and even reminded me to send a thank you note to my interviewer. The interview ended up going great thanks to her!

Working with Jillian gave me a huge boost to my confidence in terms of career development and networking. During our session, we identified the strengths and skills that can point me toward my ideal career as well as resources to help me do that. We also developed a clear action plan of next steps to kick-start my networking as well as a long-term plan to grow and develop my network over time. I am definitely planning to reach out to her again to work on a career development plan once I start my new job!

I feel so much more confident for my upcoming interviews! Jillian gave me a strategy which I will use to be fully prepared for any question.

Jillian has been a great coach in preparing for and working on a relocation and industry change.

I was very happy to meet Jullian and I hope to connect with her again in the future. Thank you for streamlining the process of meeting with high-quality coaches. Sincerely, Shana

As a disabled early retired individual, I was apprehensive about engaging in the Coaching program at Muse with Jillian! Yet my concerns were immediately quelled when I spoke to Jillian.

She is an old sole and she drew on her extensive experience to my benefit!
