COURSES
Get Hired Expert
Practical courses and tools built from 30+ years experience on the hiring side. Designed for people who are done guessing and are ready to get the job they want.
GET THE JOB YOU WANT
Learn what no one ever teaches you about getting hired.
Most people aren't held back by a lack of ability.
They're held back because nobody has ever explained how employers really make hiring decisions, how to communicate their value or how to approach their career with confidence.
That's why I created Get Hired Expert.
It's where I've brought together everything I've learned over more than 30 years in recruitment and employability into practical, self-paced courses and tools that help you stop guessing and start making informed career decisions.
The first course, Get the Job You Want – Graduate Edition is designed for graduates starting their careers. More courses for career changers, returners, experienced professionals and other audiences will follow.
Because getting hired isn't about luck. It's a skill. And skills can be learned.
“The biggest change is moving from a passive, anxiety-driven waiting game to an organized, strategic process. Instead of taking rejections personally or second-guessing every follow-up, I now view non-offers neutrally as process data to refine my approach. I've shifted toward targeting roles with intention, following up with disciplined timing, and evaluating opportunities as strategic stepping stones for my long-term career growth. Ultimately, the course gave me full ownership and confidence in how I present myself and navigate the job market.”
– Tanaka Alison Mubata
“I really appreciate the opportunity to take this course. Thank you for the valuable work you are doing to help graduates find and secure the jobs they want.
The course has given me greater confidence, clarity, and direction in my job search, and I genuinely feel that I am now heading in a positive direction. Thank you, Jackie, for your time, guidance, and dedication!”
– Success Nechipote
