Restart Career

I found out about Restart Career from a former colleague and thought, if my old employer is already paying, I'll just take it. It was the best thing I could have done. The step-by-step articles on the platform, the webinars and the Community Café were very helpful, especially at the beginning. But above all, the exchange with the various coaches on CVs, LinkedIn profiles, case studies for job interviews etc. was worth its weight in gold. I would like to thank Ulrike Bentlage and Filiz Düzenli for their many suggestions, tips and help with both professional and personal challenges. Special thanks go to my coach Hanna Ruddies, you enriched Restart Career and I am grateful that we were able to work, laugh and cry together and that I was allowed to "be".
I am looking forward to the new beginning and now have a network of supporters should I need help with orientation again.

Restart Career was an anchor for me during the challenging job search period and was a real help and enrichment in many ways. The first phases of the program were particularly helpful - without it, for example, I would not have invested so much time in reflection. In hindsight, it was time well spent. The webinars, e.g. "Becoming visible on LinkedIn" or "ChatGTP as a helper in the application process" were also really good and up to date. However, I derived the greatest personal benefit from the coaching - I will miss that.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved once again for this great program!

The New Placement Program from Restart Career
The milestones/phases are very well structured and guide you through the various situations and questions.
In addition, you get a lot of practical support for a few points, including a voucher from the great photo studio provider Studioline for application photos or CV templates with a CV check and much more.
My coach Hanna Ruddies helped me a lot to recognize my path (perspective & center) and to discover new possibilities with her warm-hearted, appreciative manner and questions
The Community Café, which she runs, with great exercises and exchanges with others, also ensured that I danced to Singin' in the Rain & making my life more colorful.
This is also how I came to the Founders' Café after my orientation phase.
The exchange about founding a company with others who also had questions,
was very helpful for me in the start-up phase.
Dr. Sabrina Zeplin's interactive presentations on start-up topics were also very helpful for me
I was encouraged by the topics of sales and money.
It is often precisely these encounters that clarify my view and give me new inspiration.
Thanks ALSO to my other coaches:
Sabina Haas for her guidance and mental strength!
Petra Michelle Nérette
Webinar Voice & Presence: Your key to a confident performance - I try to incorporate the 5 anchors every day
The coaching on storytelling and the mental support were also great.
Over time, I found my inner strength again. I realized that leaving my old job had ultimately given me the opportunity to reinvent myself and discover my passion.

Looking to my future as a soon-to-be self-employed person with fresh energy and confidence 😊

I received competent and empathetic support from the Restart Career team during a very sensitive phase. The individual coaching modules, from getting started and orientation through to the job search, built on each other in a coherent way. I always had a reliable anchor with my guide, was able to clarify questions quickly and had the feeling that they were consistently looking for the solution that really suited me - via coaching, mentoring or webinars. My CV, cover letter and appearance in interviews were professionally sharpened and my self-confidence strengthened. I felt very well looked after and cared for. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this support.

I was particularly satisfied with the Restart Career advice and support from my personal coach.

I was very satisfied with the collaboration. Restart Career enabled me to work with specialized coaches on various topics. That helped me a lot. I was always able to draw on the appropriate expertise on specific topics and the guide accompanied me very well through all phases. I was also able to learn many tools and methods that were made available on the online platform.

In a situation where the ground is pulled out from under your feet, the help from Restartcareer was worth its weight in gold. A step-by-step guide to finding your feet again. In a new life, initially without a job. But then: so many possibilities! What do I want to do, where do I want to go next in my working life? Thanks to Restartcareer, with its diverse range of ideas and support, my time without a job will come to an end next week. Thank you very much for the great support during this time!

I was very satisfied after initial skepticism

The Restart Career team supported me in finding a new position with a high level of expertise and a great deal of empathy. The coaching not only brought my CV up to date, but also boosted my self-confidence. My guide gave me the best possible advice and support during the application process. Thank you very much for that!

I felt that I was in good hands.

Restart Career supported and helped me in all phases of my professional reorientation - from saying goodbye with all the emotional challenges to finding a new job. I was always able to talk to my guide, the entire application procedure (application picture, CV conversion, application letter) was smooth and coherent, the webinars were a good accompaniment (including the encouragement café) and the contract check from the RA gave me security at the end.
Many thanks for that!

My coach was very responsive to my needs!

I was lucky twice. Firstly, I found a new job relatively quickly after leaving my former company, and secondly, Restart Career provided me with a great career advisor who gave me valuable tips and inspiration for my new start.

Good offer with top-class coaches, individual topics are dealt with in a trustworthy and uncomplicated manner.

I was pleasantly surprised at how much support Restart Career gave me. Not only in the practical process of finding a job, but above all in finding out which direction to take. Restart Career gave me a lot of courage to go my own way and helped me through some emotional hang-ups. I would never have managed that so well on my own!

Legal advice

Restart Career gave me structure and support at a time when I was quite lost and disoriented. I used almost all possible tools and learned a lot about myself, found out what I am good at and what is important to me. At the same time, I learned from my coach that I can give myself the time I need to say goodbye and heal. The most important thing for me during this time was to feel that I was not alone and that I always had good people to talk to. I learned a lot in the webinars and they improved my ability to deal with AI enormously. I am also a big fan of Egym Wellpass.

Many thanks to Restart Career for their valuable support during a challenging time. Thanks to the numerous professional tips, helpful advice and inspiring testimonials, I have successfully made my way out of unemployment without any major obstacles. I am extremely grateful to the team for this great help

Restart Career helped me a lot to reflect on professional & private issues & to position myself with my strengths for a new start. I also really liked the chronological guidance in the portal through the process - from the reappraisal to the application. My personal guide & and the coaches were absolutely great. I can really recommend Restart Career!
