I have Jamil to thank for helping me land my very first role out of college through his career services, connections, and exceptional advice. If you’re looking for someone dedicated and passionate about mentoring professionals at any point in their career journeys, you couldn’t find a better coach than Jamil. He’s the absolute best!”

"Jamil has been an amazing guide throughout my job-search journey. As a senior navigating the challenges of a slow economic period during undergrad, Jamil provided crucial insights and strategies that elevated my job search. His support extended beyond graduation, offering practical advice on navigating my first layoff and utilizing resources to expand my reach in securing a new role. I highly recommend Jamil for his expertise in job search and his motivational personality!"

Ellen Okamura

“Jamil has been truly amazing! If a "career therapist" was a job title, Jamil would have it. I walked into his office as a nervous freshman unsure about where to start in my career journey and walked out excited with a list of attain able goals to achieve before my next meeting. After you meetJamil, you can tell that he is determined to help wherever possible, and cares about the success of students.”
