Angel McCormack
LinkedIn Recommendations Snippets:
"I was thinking to myself the other day about what made Angel stand out in comparison to others I've worked with. I came to the conclusion that instead of just using words with resume building, she goes one step further and strives to use the words that best fit the person she is working with. Others focus too much on the resume itself while Angel is able to breathe a sense of the person into the resume. " ~Erin
"I worked with Angel when I was seeking a new senior executive role and needed to update and upgrade my resume and Linked In Profile. Her ability to take the 25+ career of a seasoned executive and concisely tailor a resume from 5 pages to 2 choosing the perfect things to highlight for my future employer was nothing short of amazing. She is a creative writing talent with significant business expertise which enables her to find the nuggets that will highlight your talents most effectively. Her turnaround time is super human and her calm and professional demeanor when working with tight deadlines was greatly soothing and appreciated! I would highly recommend Angel to anyone who needs help with career coaching and resume/Linked In updates." -Wendy
"For the past three years, I have had the absolute pleasure of working with, for and learning from Angel McCormack. She is a leader in her field and an exceptional career counselor, who holds the highest standard in the work she produces. She goes beyond expectations to help her students and clients shine. She has an incredible work ethic and works tirelessly to help students, clients, and her team get to where they want/need to go. Her deliverables are top notch and she is the best resume writer out there. She has an impressive list of resources to support her holistic approach to career and well-being and she generously shares it with all. It is obvious that her mission is to help others learn how to help themselves. Angel is kind and compassionate in her approach and is the positive light one needs when getting caught up in the weeds of managing career/life challenges. I am continuously inspired by her and am honored to have worked with someone who consistently demonstrates leadership and accountability in whatever she does. I highly recommend working with Angel if you need support in career or holistic health coaching and counseling. She will be an amazing advocate and partner for you as she has with everyone she has worked with. -Gavan
"Angel is one of the most effective career counselors I have ever worked with. Her ability to craft a resume, using her marketing knowledge, attention to detail and exceptional writing skills is incredible. She has built up a loyal following among our part-time current students and alumni for good reason. She created a remote-counseling model to serve her clients. She is able to balance the use of technology without losing a high-touch approach to meet (and very often surpass) the varying needs of a diverse population of MBA professionals. She is a valuable member of our team; the work she does is critically important to our overall success. She truly cares about her clients and their experience as they take their career search journeys. I enthusiastically recommend Angel McCormack." -Inger
"I cannot say enough about Angel and her abilities in resume writing, interviews and coaching people to present the best version of themselves. She helped me develop my resume, cover letter, practiced interviews while maintaining a professional, personable and pleasant demeanor. She is a true asset to any organization and highly recommend her services for any such endeavor." -William
"I worked closely with Angel to fine tune my resume and develop a more targeted career search. Her attention to detail and ability to restructure my resume into a very efficient presentation of my true background was brilliant. She is incredibly efficient, a joy to work with and I saw instant results in my job search at the time." -Darren
"I’ve been in HR for over 10 years and have reviewed thousands of resumes and cover letters, but when it came to writing and formatting my own I knew I needed help. I sent her the resume I had and she gave me constructive criticism, but it was an accurate critique. Then she sent me an entirely new version taking the content I had, but completely editing it into impressive language. She also completely wrote the cover letter for me which was just as impressive. The resume and cover letter she gave me landed me way more interviews, I can’t recommend her work enough, she is amazing with words!" -Hoover
"I cannot say enough about Angel and her expertise because she is an amazing resource. I had the pleasure of working with her when I wanted to update my resume and cover letter for a particular position. Angel reviewed the job announcement and provided guidance on how to tailor my resume and cover letter to the announcement. I received a call promptly to interview for the position and Angel provided additional information on how to prepare for the interview. If you want results I suggest you contact Angel for all of your career growth needs. You will not be disappointed." -Rodney

I am currently on a Deep-Dive Learning Sabbatical with the aim to transition my practice to all-encompassing full-life coaching, where I will be leveraging all the self-assessment tools that I have already mastered, and combining that expertise with Human Design and Gene Keys, but using both the True Sidereal Astrological and geocentric frameworks at its core. This is a very niche market that I will be pioneering (and hopefully partnering with) the very few who are also on this exciting esoteric trajectory.
Past Accomplishments
I hold a Master of Science degree in Career Counseling, a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, am Certified in the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, Certified as a Leadership Architect by Korn Ferry, and former Co-Leader of the Weston A. Price Foundation's Sacramento Chapter. I have authored many Career Counseling related publications including Effective e-Counseling, Job Search Tips, The MBA Shelf Life (2022), and 1000s of confidential Case Studies. After conducting extensive Master’s level research of Psychological Theory that included the works of Carl Jung, Alfred Adler, Carl Rogers, and Fritz Perls just to name a few, my theoretical approach to Counseling is a Humanistic mix of Existential, Person Centered, Gestalt, and Behaviorism schools of thought, as detailed in my Career Counseling Theory, (originally called The Theory of Angel Land, but I changed it to appear 'more professional' - no more of that nonsense, everyone will only going to get 100% Authentic Angel from now on, no dimming my light! 😊
While at the University of California, Davis - Graduate School of Management (25% contract from 2006 to 2012, then 50%+ employee from 2013 to 2025), I pioneered their first-ever distance counseling strategy/process for the Working Professional population (those in careers at least 10+ years obtaining their MBAs to move up, or change industries or functions). While there I worked with 2250 individuals, and in my Private Practice (which was primarily referrals) I worked with another 250 individuals, for a total of 2500 people, representing all functions and all industries: Marketing, Finance, Consulting, Health Care, Renewable Energies, Technology, CPG, Non-Profits, Corporate Social Responsibility, and many more. Clients have ranged from those in mid level careers to CEOs, CFOs, General Managers, Managing Principals, Strategy Consultants, M.D.s, J.D.s, etc. Select companies of clients include: Google, Apple, Sony, Paypal, CalPERS, Blackrock, Well Fargo Financial, Cisco, Intel, PG&E, Chevron, SMUD, State of California, Lawrence Livermore Lab, Genentech, Blue Shield, and countless more.
Concurrently, from 2006 - 2018 I was the Marketing Consultant for a Commercial Real Estate / Property Management firm where I created and executed the Apartment Advisory Team’s marketing strategy. In that time we closed 52 transactions worth $320 Million, comprised of 3151 multi-family units. I oversaw marketing collateral creation, database management, and website creation/management for 7 of its divisions: Apartment Advisory Team, Property Management California, Property Management Nevada, Manufactured Housing California, Manufactured Housing Washington, Manufactured Housing Nevada, and TRIScapes California.
My last Holistic Health related Business & Marketing Consulting assignment was for an international YouTube-based start-up focused on natural health and healing for people who became compromised by the mainstream medical system. In that year long assignment, I took it from start-up through incorporation. I edited the book "21 Nutrition & Health Lies Keeping You Sick" on Amazon April 2018, increased leads by 300% in the first week after taking over YouTube comments, increased sales by 300% in 3 months after taking over all client correspondence, interfaced with the CPA to incorporate the business, and then provided vetted marketing strategies, processes, and procedures to outsource offshore in December 2018.
