This course was definitely a great way to start my online learning journey here at Coursera. The instructors are easy to follow and understand, they're nice, and even fun sometimes! I'm very grateful for the language and business skills I acquired throughout this course. I enjoyed every assignment and I also had fun taking the time to read the bonus information they added at the end of each week, which turned out to be quite handy. I'm totally satisfied with the course and I would recommend it to anyone starting their career with English as their second language.
Thank you, Brian, and thank you, Robyn.

Very informative course for someone who wants to improve their communication and writing skills in English for professional development. I thoroughly enjoyed the way the course was structured and taught by two amazing instructors. The course was supported with informative reading materials and the peer-graded assignments encouraged me to put that extra effort to earn good grades. I would like to thank Coursera for recommending this course which taught me to write good resumes, cover letters and practice networking and elevator speeches. Hoping to learn more such courses in the future.

I am very grateful for the makers of this course and our instructors from The University of Pennsylvania. You have kindly and effectively relayed your knowledge to me, especially to those who are non-native English speakers. Career counseling is a course requirement for my chosen masters program in a local University here in the Philippines. This course has helped me regain confidence, gave me insights in career development and career counseling, and even ideas from online learning and online teaching. It has been a great learning time for me on this course. Maraming salamat po. <3

Thank you Mr. Brian McManus and Ms. Robyn Turner. At first, I thought my credential will speak for itself and that I do not need to improve my resume but I was proven wrong. This course really helped me a lot in terms of resume making, job search and job application process in general. I wish I could show you how my resume improved and how many companies are now looking on my profile and wanting to have an interview with me. Thank you once again and I hope that a lot of people will be benefited from this course.

This course is a wonderful tool for everyone no matter if you´re just entering job market and preparing your first resume and cover letter or are already working. The whole job search topics has been wrapped into one well structured program which is easy to follow thanks to the videos, control questions, tests, games and assignments. I especially liked the idea that it was required to review also other´s work. This truly gave a key to pay attention to main indicators, but also taught to respectful, constructive and encouraging in the feedback given.

I thought it will be an easy course, repeated information and I will finish it in no time, but what I actually found that this course is very rich with new information, and made me see the CV and interview processes from a different angel, letting me get the new updates of how the process is going, and I discovered that I have an out dated information, which finally led to dramatic change in my CV, and now it look away better than before.
Special Thanks to the amazing professors and for Coursera for giving us such a chance for change

I thoroughly and rigorously loved this course. I'm very glad to have completed this course. I got to learn a lot regarding the job interviews and how to make a professional resume and cover letter. Although this course was simply amazing, it was pretty easy for me. In fact I had no troubles at all completing all the assignments before the deadline. I was expecting more of a challenge. In the future, I'd like to know the difficulty level of a course before enrolling in it. I hope coursera helps make it pretty clear.

As non-native English speaker this course helped me to develop certain skills such as following the right steps to job search process, application and interview. In addition to this, I have enriched my English Vocabulary with regards to Career Development and related terms and definitions. One of the things that I liked most was the combination of interactive features and relevant knowledge especially the instructors' videos because they were pleasant and beneficial at the same time. I do recommend this course.

That's a good opportunity to increase the writing, understanding, and learning new subjects, sentences and words. Don't underestimate the tittle "English for Career". You really need all of those explanations, even if you are not a job seeker or an employer.
I also could found many specific and important information so different from my country
I am looking forward to the next course made by this institution.
Thank you all, specifically to my teachers Brian McManus and Robyn Turner!
Cheers from Brazil!

Great course. It was very interesting to learn how the job search process works in the US. I truly recommend taking it because it will open your eyes to things you may have never considered before when applying for jobs (and which are absolutely important). If you want to get a job in the US, then, definitely take this course (even if you have great English skills). Yes, there are some lessons that include basic grammar and vocabulary, but the course is mainly about Career Development, NOT English.

Thanks you for organising this course, and to be a part of professional development of young people.
You are great, and i will continue with the next part, more complex and more advanced on your site.

This is a great course to better understand the hiring process and the skill the candidate should develop and explore.
It's good for people who live in the US but also for who does not because of the exchange of information between students the teachers promove, and also because many lessons are focused about the candidate her/himself that does not matter much where the person is.
I appreciate the opportunity and strongly recommend this course for those who are seeking for a job.
