We can help you write a resume and cover letter, prepare for an in-person or virtual job interview, understand behaviors expected in a professional setting, learn strategies for networking and making career connections, and find current job openings in Vermont.

We can help you understand your cash flow, manage your bills, and keep a little more in the bank each month by creating a spending plan with a focus on choice, mindfulness, and what’s important to you.
