Client Testimonials

Lissa spoke at an event I led and moderated with Prince's Trust Canada. Lissa is an expert on her topic and provided great value. Her content was certainly relevant and definitely connected to program outcomes. I have no doubt she is going to help our audience get hired. She is a kind and gracious speaker with incredible incites – she knocked it out of the park. She was dynamic and engaging and definitely connected with our audience - would definitely recommend Lissa for any upcoming contracts or events.

I had the pleasure of having Lissa as a speaker at my event, Staying Motivated: Tips and Strategies, in October 2022, for the Women in Management Network at the University of Ottawa. She provided our attendees with her insightful job search tips and career development knowledge. Lissa is very professional and a great public speaker who was able to effectively deliver the presentation and engage with our audience. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced Career Strategist. A true pleasure to work with!

I took part in a training session delivered by Lissa through a work event. Her presentation was engaging. She was able to answer difficult career questions in a detailed way with excellent examples and practical next steps. She also provided tools such as a workbook. I have been taking my time to complete the workbook as it has me thinking about my career and professional development in a deeper and more meaningful way. I would recommend working with WeApply, no matter what stage you are at in your career. You will get practical and meaningful support and actions that you can apply right away.

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Lissa for WCT's Opening Doors Ottawa: A Career Expo For Women, By Women in May 2023. She delivered a highly engaging workshop on personal branding for our 100+ attendees - which many indicated was the highlight of the full-day event. Lissa is an excellent public speaker and storyteller that delivers professional development content in a relatable and actionable way. I would recommend her sessions to anyone looking to level up their career. Lissa was a joy to work with - flexible, adaptable and full of rich insights, Lissa offered participants a wealth of resources and tangible takeaways on everything from growing their online presence and building relationships with mentors to telling their stories with confidence.

The New York Public Library patrons loved Lissa's presentations! The feedback we have received was enthusiastic and super positive. One of the many wonderful qualities of her presentation style is her ability to present complex issues in a straightforward way, so participants can easily absorb the information no matter how advanced their job search skills are. I personally also appreciate Lissa's generosity in sharing her time and knowledge with people who often don't have a lot of means or resources to rely on.
