Clients' Testimonials
I hired Career Pathways Consulting to recruit a management-level professional for my copywriting agency. The team remained professional, positive and focused throughout the entire process - even when we endured a few roadblocks and challenges. Thanks to Barbara and her team, I now have a great employee who has the skills to contribute to our overall agency goals immediately. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of working with Career Pathways Consulting. If you’re looking to recruit a talented staff member, I highly recommend you hire Barbara and her incredible team!

I signed up with Barbara, CEO of Career Pathways to help create the Client Experience foundation for my business. I knew, my need was someone with expertise and the time to get these crucial components and Barbara was the perfect person for exactly that. What I received was so much more. Barbara is an expert at what she does and what she creates. With Barbara’s direction, input and expertise she assisted in hiring my first team of employees and building my team from the inside out. Her work on helping create and handle my HR duties has made a significant difference to my business. I’ve seen how not only implementing a process for hiring, but hiring the right people and maintaining healthy and informed relationships has made the business more efficient in all aspects. I highly recommend and regard her mastery in all things pertinent to Human Resources.

Hire her. Right now. Don't think twice. Just do it. Working with Barbara has allowed me to step more fully into my role as CEO by taking the hiring, the onboarding, the team leading, the HR process off of my plate so I can focus on what I do best - which is not HR! Within a few short months of working with Barbara, I've hired multiple new women onto our team who are running circles around me. She's helped me step out of my contractor-only comfort zone to finally bring on full-time employees with paid benefits. My team is amazing because we are attracting high-quality, committed people because Barbara is at the helm of hiring. Every single new hire said Barbara was one of their favorite parts of the process. When left to do this on my own, the hiring process could take months. With Barbara, it can take weeks. She goes above and beyond - providing invaluable resources, tips, insights, and guidance. She's become my partner for all things HR related and there is no way I could be doing this without her by my side. She continues to blow me away by exceeding my expectations at every turn. If you want to take your business to the next level but are confused and overwhelmed by the people/hiring part, I suggest you make the incredible business decision of bringing her onboard to support you. You will be so grateful you did!

Barbara is an HR Guru! I consulted with Barbara to assist me with the hiring process with my first employee and was immediately impressed with her knowledge. Barbara’s ability to take the small amount information provided and in return give enormous value helped my new employee move seamlessly through the hiring process. Her attention to detail was impeccable and made me confident in being able to see what I perceived to be an insurmountable task to the end. She helped me craft a cohesive job description and design a competitive compensation plan that hit the mark. Barbara and her team were the consummate professionals, who were very intuitive to my company’s hiring needs and comes highly recommended as a partner to your staff expansion goals.
