I am so lucky to have worked with Tule Tran! Tule helped me with enhancing my Cover Letter and Resume. I thought it could not have been improved beyond what I had done, but she found many areas that could have been improved!

Tule helped me turn my resume very professional and applicable to the accounting industry for both public and industry roles I was applying for. Tule also advised me on what kind of interviews I would get from co-op roles and industry roles, whether it was a screening interview, etc.

In the 6 Co-Op roles that were introduced by my program head, I received 4 interviews; 2 of them were for public firms, and the other 2 were nationally known industry firms in Vancouver. I received 2 offers from my first choice of industry and public firms, where I ultimately chose Baker Tilly, a top 10 accounting firm in the world! The role at Baker Tilly is an Audit and Assurance role where I will participate in an 8-month Co-op. Thank you so much Tule!

I was fortunate enough to work with Joyce Lee. When I first chatted with her I explained that I was finding it very difficult to find a job and to land interviews. She first helped me out with the resume, then with the cover letter, and she trained me for interviews. It has been more than two years we have been working together, and I can say she is a lovely, caring, professional person. She supported me during my lowest, and she was always there to write me back positive things and keep my chin up. She would make sure I was ready for every single interview I had. She checked up on me more than once, making sure I was still applying and not letting defeat beat me down, and she always encouraged me to keep trying. I got my opportunity, and finally, I have left construction behind. She not only helped me to find a job, but she is also a counsellor to me. THANK YOU!

Face-to-face time with employers can be extremely helpful when you’re looking for a job. It gives you an opportunity to show them how you stand out, which is a lot harder to communicate through a resume, especially since hundreds of other people are applying. BCITSA’s Career Fair gave me an opportunity to talk to Ensemble directly. It felt like a good fit, and we went ahead with the job application process within a few days after the fair.

Our DTC resident Career Specialist helped me prepare for the interviews and job hunting in general. Looking for a job can be really stressful and time-consuming, especially doing it while you’re still in school. Having someone experienced guide you through the process is invaluable.

The Career Services of the Student Association have helped me a lot with cover letters, resumes, interviews, suggestions, and advice for my job hunt. All staff are very skilled, resourceful, and up to date with the market. Besides that, they have good online resources that address the demands of the industry. I strongly suggest students use these services.
