ABOUT

"Karen was extremely helpful in my job search and genuinely cares about her clients. Being a recent graduate, I felt overwhelmed trying to get my footing in the career world, and Karen was there every step of the way. Not only did she help me write a great resume and LinkedIn profile, she helped me focus my job search so the opportunities I went for were ones that I felt passionate about and matched my skill set. She also put me in contact with professionals working in fields that interested me, so I could see if they would be the right fit for me. With her help, I landed a new job in a field I have dreamt about for years! I highly recommend Karen and can't thank her enough!"

 "I’m not the type to write reviews normally but in this case, I felt it was necessary. I was looking to make a career change after 25 years of owning my own business.  I had no idea how to start this process.  I was referred to Karen Sharp of Sharp Human Resources by a friend and made the call.  I was unsure of what career I was looking for; I just knew I was desperate to make the change.  Upon meeting Karen and giving her a brief synopsis of my situation, she connected me with a job interview that very day!  I’d love to say it was that easy and I took that job, but I didn’t. What it did show me was that what I had imagined was impossible was not.  We worked together on honing my resume and connecting me with people to talk to who had made a similar transition.  This further instilled the belief that what I was trying to accomplish was achievable.  Karen was instrumental early on in my process.  She helped to keep me focused and on task.  She connected me with valuable resources which I had never heard of or knew were available.  I would recommend her services to anyone looking to make a career change or looking for that first job.  I will be forever grateful for her mentorship."

"I can not thank Karen enough for all of her help! Her insights on resume writing and the hiring process in general were very valuable to me. I went from not hearing back from any employer to getting interviews! I believe her help landed me the job I have now and will still be relevant later on in my career. 

Thank you so much Karen!"

"I met with Karen a while back in order to update/reorganize my resume. She was very patient and took her time with me. Never did I feel rushed. I did get the job that I applied for after making the suggested changes. I have been at my new job since December 17, 2018 and I am much happier and love it! Thank you Karen for helping me improve my health and happiness."

Clarence, NY

"After working on the job for 15 years, I consider myself an expert in my field.  However, after the company I worked for folded and I had to start looking for a new job, I was lost.  15 years is a long time to be out of the job hunting game and I tried my best at it for about a month before feeling defeated. 

I contacted Sharp Human Resources.  They not only simplified my resume and gave me a job search strategy, but they also gave me new contacts and an new found enthusiasm to get back into the hunt. Before having their help I posted to dozens of places with no reply.  After their help, I applied to only 5 places and already received 2 interviews within a couple days of applying.  My only regret is that I didn't contact them sooner - would've saved myself a month of time!  If I am ever in trouble with the job hunt again, I know who to call."

Cheektowaga, NY

"Karen Sharp-Price has been extremely helpful to me in this time of transition in my career. After ten years in Education, I decided to pursue a career in HR. I met Karen through the Daemen College SHRM Chapter, and since then she has taken so much time coaching me, helping with my resume, forwarding me job postings, and reaching out to her contacts about jobs and internships that may be available. 

With one course to go in my certificate program, I have just accepted an internship with an HR consulting company, and I'm so happy and grateful for all of Karen's help over the last several months! Her expertise and knowledge have been invaluable."

Cheektowaga, NY

"I can honestly say, I'm not sure I could have done this without you.  Just having a resource to talk to and provide helpful tips and suggestions has been such a plus for me during what has been a very anxious period for me.  I never would have written a resume that was targeted so closely to this job posting if you didn't bring that up during our first meeting.  Clearly that made an impact in getting me the opportunity to meet face to face with them and sell myself to the company. 

I've already shared your contact information with a few other people and I will always be a proponent of your services.

Thank you!"

West Seneca, NY

"Before I met with Karen, I thought my resume was just fine. Then Karen would ask a clear question. And here's how my mindset shifted: Oh, yes, that would look better there! Oh, I had no idea hiring people did that. Oh, yes, you're right about taking that out.

And so on.  Without any pain or anguish, my resume improved dramatically.

Here's what's cool about Karen: beyond her exceptional organizational skills, common sense and super great professional background, Karen is caring. She worked with me as I shook out all those inconsistencies, all the bits that weren't quite right, until my resume was, as we both agreed, perfection.

I am very grateful for her!"
