Success Stories

  • Sarah (Career Readiness Programme)

    Working with Amaning CareerLift was honestly one of the best decisions I made for my career. From the very beginning, she was very patient, supportive, and kind. She made me feel seen and capable even when I was doubting myself.

    One thing I can say was really helpful was that she really took the time to understand where I was, what I needed, and how to help me move forward in a way that felt realistic and achievable. There were moments I felt stuck or unsure, but she stayed consistent, encouraging, and honest in a way that pushed me without overwhelming me.

    As a direct result of her support, I was able to get a new job and I’ve now been in that role for over 2 months. I genuinely don’t think I would have gotten here as confidently or as smoothly without her guidance.

    I’m so grateful for the service I received and would absolutely recommend Amaning CareerLift to anyone who needs clarity, direction, and real support in their career journey.,

  • NHS Property Services, BHM Event Participant

    “Ruth’s session was genuinely inspiring — empowering, authentic, and full of wisdom. I left feeling energised, confident, and ready to take on the world.

    Her insights on showing up as both a mentee and a mentor were incredibly valuable and timely.

    An impactful and memorable experience.”

  • Jonathan (Career Readiness & Aspiring Leaders Programme)

    “I wanted to become a data analyst, but I had no prior knowledge or skills, even though it had always been one of my biggest desires. When I met Ruth from Amaning CareerLift, things changed.

    I was provided with all the support I needed to improve my CV and write competency and personal statements. This had a great impact, and I started getting interviews. I was then given additional coaching to help me prepare for interviews and technical presentations.

    Within a few months, I was offered a job as a Data Analyst with the Civil Service, making my dream come true.

    I would highly recommend Amaning CareerLift to anyone looking to pursue a new career path and wanting guidance from a professional.”

  • Anonymous (Career Readiness Programme)

    “I received exceptional support and guidance which was tailored and relevant to my needs. AmaningCareerLift provides an amazing platform to harness potential. Personally, the interview coaching/preparation is without doubt , one of the best one can ever get. It gets you adequately prepared and helps do away with the nerves. Would recommend any day!”

  • Collins (Career Readiness Programme)

    “I got an interview for a civil service job when i made the initial contact in 2025 and after the support I was given by Amaning CareerLift and dutifully applying it in my interview, i got about 3 offers. Ever since then, i have utilized the support to apply for more higher roles in the civil service, and most recently that support is paying dividends as I have series of interviews waiting. I would come back to testify more”
