Certified Career Coach &
Career Transition Advisor
About Jennifer
After dedicating many fulfilling years to corporate recruiting, I reunited with my true purpose: helping individuals secure careers that energize them. With nearly three decades of shaping hiring processes, interviewing countless candidates, and negotiating thousands of offers, I've gained valuable expertise in what it takes to get considered, excel in interviews, and achieve your career goals.
​​​
In 2022, I was working as an executive recruiter at a Big Four firm where I had been for 17 years. I felt a nagging sense of misalignment with my level and career goals, which prompted me to undergo critical self-reflection and ultimately embark on a search to find better alignment with my values and career objectives.
​​
Despite securing a higher-level role and pay increase at a new organization, I was laid off nine months later. This experience gave me a deep empathy for job seekers and a "mile in your shoes" perspective.
Initially, I planned to become an independent recruiter. However, after six months, I gained further clarity on what truly energized me, and realized this path was missing the mark. My greatest day-to-day enjoyment came from helping my ex-colleagues who were struggling in their own careers. I quickly recognized a huge need for improved tools and advice that are currently severely lacking in the market.

Albert Einstein once said, “In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity" and that's how JP Roberts Career Strategies was born.
​​
Although my path has shifted, one thing has remained steadfast over the course of my career; my goal of helping others transition into roles that energize them. When I help individuals align their personal values with their professional goals and witness them thrive and flourish, it feeds my soul.
​
As a 30-year recruiting veteran, Certified Professional Coach through the World Coaching Institute, and International Coaching Federation Credentialed Coach, I bring a structured yet personal approach to assisting professionals in navigating their career transitions. My objective is to provide individuals with exceptional tools, clarity, and confidence to achieve their professional aspirations, aligning seamlessly with their personal values.
