Rebecca Martin, founder of California based dear jane…, a
career advisement company..., believes that people can succeed in landing the “perfect” job if
they can first identify what is right for them.
As a corporate recruiter in Silicon Valley in the ’90s,
Rebecca saw firsthand the personal and professional disorientation of thousands of workers
displaced when the tech bubble burst. From this unique vantage point, Rebecca analyzed corporate
clients’ hiring processes; job applicants’ resume-writing abilities and interviewing skills; and
hiring managers’ practices and procedures.
By 2002, Rebecca had identified a pivotal factor in the
success — or failure — of an individual in his or her chosen career: the ability to articulate a
personal vision.
In 2004 Rebecca launched dear jane… with a proprietary
career advisement program that includes career assessment, resume writing, interviewing
methodologies, and compensation and other negotiations and much
more.
Today, dear jane… develops and delivers career management
training classes, workshops, seminars, and coaching to Fortune 1000 companies as well as
individuals throughout the United States. Since its inception, dear jane… has enjoyed a 98%
success rate in coaching clients through career transitions, successful interviewing, salary
negotiations, and the like.
Rebecca’s speaking engagements take her to college career
centers, job search work groups, professional association meetings, job fairs, Employment
Development Department offices, and One-Stop Career Centers. She is an official Trainer for the
US Government Employment Development Department (EDD).
A USC graduate with a B.S. in Business Administration,
Rebecca has written and published the booklet "83 Tips on How to Successfully Work with
Corporate and External Recruiters.” She belongs to the Women’s National Book Association. She
has recently appeared as a Career Consultant to the View from the Bay San Francisco’s ABC
afternoon show.
