Testimonials

Richard Simms and Black Eagle Consulting provided me with outplacement services when I became unemployed in 2009. Richard’s empathetic approach allowed me to move forward and refocus on the next steps of my career. I benefited from his insightful assessments of my strengths, weaknesses and personality tendencies which allowed me to find employment that was the right fit for me. Richard was very thorough with my resume and interview preparation allowing me to properly market myself. Due to Richard’s connections and relationships with key people in the industry I always felt that I had an advantage at every interview. Regardless of the circumstance Richard has always made time for me and to this day I know that advice I can trust is only a phone call away. I credit Richard with helping me find the right next step in my career and would highly recommend his services to any person or company.

Richard Simms and Black Eagle Consulting have provided excellent work in regards to relocation counseling services to one of our ex-employees who has now successfully landed a new position. Richard's service is more personal and tailored to the individual when compared to the mass market approach of some of the larger firms. Rather than providing a computer and an office, Richard provided personal coaching on résumé preparation, interviewing techniques and follow-up skills. In other words, he identified the areas where this individual needed help and tailored his approach to this situation. In addition, it was appreciated that Richard kept me informed about where we were in the process through regular communication. I would recommend Richard as a conscientious professional who provides the understanding, follow-up, and motivation to the individual who requires outplacement services, and a sense of comfort to the company who engages him that value is being delivered.
