“Investment in Educators” Program – JSM Career Coaching Provides 15% Discount to Displaced Teachers on Preparation of Resumes and Career-related Documents
JSM Career Coaching and The National Resume Writers Association membership embrace program designed to reward teachers for investing in our future leaders, offering discounts on services for teachers in honor of National Teacher Day on May 4, 2010.
May 1, 2010 – As thousands of teachers across the country receive pink slips due to budget shortfalls, JSM Career Coaching stands ready to provide assistance. Along with The National Resume Writers Association (The NRWA), a non-profit organization of professional resume writers, JSM Career Coaching has decided to come to the aid of teachers through the “Investment in Educators” program.
The initiative, which offers educators a 15% discount on the preparation of resumes and other career-related documents, runs until September 1, 2010. The discount is available to all teachers who have been notified their contract will not be renewed or have already been displaced during the economic crisis.
“Teachers are the backbone of our great country and they have dedicated their lives to educating our future leaders,” stated Charlotte Weeks, president of The National Resume Writers Association (www.thenrwa.com). “As an association, we decided it was time to give back by helping teachers increase their competitiveness in this tough job market with well-written, career-related documents, while easing their financial burden.”
More than 45 resume writers and members of The National Resume Writers Association have stepped up to provide discounted services for teachers across the nation.
All teachers in can participate in the “Investment in Educators” program by visiting www.jsmcareercoaching.com.
With National Teacher Day approaching on May 4, 2010, JSM Career Coaching and The National Resume Writers Association believe it is important that other businesses get involved in honoring teachers as well.
“The members of our organization realize the crucial role teachers play in ensuring every student receives a quality education,” said Weeks. “We would like to ask businesses to join us on National Teacher Day by also offering discounts on services and products to teachers in their local communities.”

When Julie Mendez looked for even better ways to serve career-minded professionals; she decided to pursue world-class training through Job Search Academy.
With a 4-to-1 jobseekers-to-jobs ratio in today's economy, job seekers have a new ally on the job hunt. Mendez, Career Coach with JSM Career Coaching took time from her business to join an elite group of career professionals in a rigorous, hands-on curriculum that spanned 12 weeks.
Susan Britton Whitcomb, nationally known leader in the careers industry, and the President of Career Coach Academy and Job Search Academy, and Beverly Harvey, Director of Job Search Academy and President of Harvey Careers, co-developed the program. A comprehensive curriculum with practical coaching assignments rounded out the program that included intense training in all phases of the contemporary and customary job search strategies and tactics including those that have emerged as a result of the social media impact on recruiting trends. The course included 6 hours of self-directed study, weekly field work, a client case study, and testing in comprehensive job-search strategies. Julie Mendez passed the tests to earn the Certified Job Search Strategist credential, an excellent addition to his/her many years of experience with job seekers.
To help people win and succeed in fully satisfying careers, Julie Mendez now has even more powerful tools, including knowledge of:
- Job Search System & Process, including the Academy's proprietary "40
Steps to a Savvy Search"

efficiency and momentum

New Career Coach Targets Foreign Service
Family Members
Julie Mendez of JSM Career Coaching "Opens Her Doors" and
Offers a Discount to Foreign Service Family Members
Julie Mendez entered the Foreign Service the way many do – through
marrying the man of her dreams. But following him in his career meant the
end of her own as a recruiter. Luckily (for both herself and her clients),
she has been able to parlay her employment background into her new calling
as a Career Coach.
Mendez's intimate knowledge of the Foreign Service lifestyle is only half
of what makes her unique in her field; her recruiting background provides
her clients an insider’s perspective on what a potential recruiter
or employer looks for in a successful candidate.
"We also operate differently than traditional resume writers," commented
Julie Mendez. "We do not write the resume for our client, but coach them
through the process themselves. We use this as a learning tool, so that when
our client walks into his or her interview, he or she will able to talk with
confidence about their resume and work experience. We feel that you will achieve
better results if you have worked on your resume yourself, versus having someone
else doing it all for you."
JSM Career Coaching's other current services include interview and job search
coaching. These sessions are designed to assist the Foreign Service family
member with various issues such as cover letters, job search tips and assistance,
interviewing skills, and practice through role play and other exercises.
All services have one caveat in mind – that a client walk away with
a “tangible,” measurable outcome at the end of his or her sessions,
and are practical and useful.
Sessions are conveniently done via the internet, email, and phone, so that
the client has immediate access no matter where they may be located. A discount
is also offered to all Foreign Service and military family members.
"I understand it's not just about finding just A job but THE job;" stated
Julie Mendez. "It is my personal mission to empower Foreign Service family
members by giving them the skills they need to land the particular job they
want and deserve."
A graduate of New York University, Julie Mendez of JSM Career Coaching has
over five years in the executive search and recruitment industries, the most
recent as a Branch Manager for a temporary placement agency in Washington,
DC. Because of her "gypsy lifestyle" following her husband's Foreign
Service career around the world, Mendez has also had the opportunity to serve
as the Community Liaison Officer at the US Embassy in Rome, Italy; where
she developed programs and initiatives to maintain high morale and enhance
the quality of life for the US diplomatic community.
