Testimonials

Don and company, I just wanted to thank you for all the help in landing an excellent job . . . as company President. Without you starting me off and Arlene guiding me I would not have had the success at the interview process and eventually the job offer. Great coaching and advice into a great job. Please feel free to use this praise with my permission to help others use your skills and knowledge. All the best

I have no doubt that the assistance & expertise I gained from Venturion was key to my successful career transition from the real estate industry into program management. Venturion provided an incredible depth of knowledge that helped build the bridge from where I was to where I wanted to go. While we all possess great skills of our own, Don and his team are able to help you promote yourself to your specific target audience and with the right message to move in the direction of your choosing.

Don Huse and Venturion were excellent resources when I needed professional career guidance and coaching. Their knowledge and contacts are well worth the investment in Venturion.
Rick Hernandez
I felt lost as to how I could transfer my skills into another profession. Within a week, I felt like there was hope and a pathway . . . . Don Huse and his approach to leading and growing capacity in others is rare and sincere. He is empathetic and has your best interests at heart. He deals with what makes all of us tick - our values and our beliefs - and making sure we all know we cannot fail. Thank you, Don, for this new chapter in my life. You and your staff made a difference.

Don has assembled a very capable team of professionals. I reached out to Arlene, Sally and Don multiple times with diverse questions about my and others' career management. Venturion team takes time to understand clients' needs and recommends multiple options to fit their needs. Venturion experts possess the nested knowledge that I have rarely found among coaches. Highly recommended!

For career planning, coaching, and transitioning, Venturion's team is excellent! Don, Arlene and Sally each provide the most positive, realistic viewpoints needed when it's time to step up and move into your next career phase. Their techniques and advice offer tried-and-true skills that last a lifetime, both professionally and personally.... An excellent learning experience to have in the fast-paced, competitive environment we're in. Kudos to the entire team!
Nancy Chavana
Venturion headed by Don works by using a process of self evaluation and then intelligently directing your efforts. In my experience I learned so much, met so many people that have enriched my life, and I am now in role where the head hunter would not have known me without Venturion. I believe the whole experience is excellent, it's a life changer.
Angela White
This experience totally changed my life. Previously, I thought that this process just matched people to available jobs. After working with Arlene, I found/rediscovered my passion. Once we found that, she taught me tools I needed to pursue the job/career/lifestyle that I had always wanted. After working with Arlene, I stopped worrying about “not having a job” and focused more on “what’s my next step”; “what hill are we going to climb today?”; “what’s the next opportunity?”
Gil Kibler
At the age of 63, I found myself frustrated with online resumes, countless job fairs, and applications that lead to no-responses or face2face interviews. Then, I met Don Huse and his dynamic staff of highly experienced professionals at Venturion. I interviewed and got the perfect job that fits my experience within a week of the face2face interview using the techniques I learned from Venturion. Don Huse is an expert in this industry, I highly recommend his services to those seeking career advice or those looking to enhance their career path – it’s truly, worth the investment.
Jesse Guerra
In all of my prior jobs changes I was able to successfully rely on recruiters to move within my industry without regard to location and it always served me well but I recently was faced with the desire for a job change but needed to stay within the area and my old approach was not going to work and I turned to Venturion for help. They showed me a new approach . . . which concluded just as planned with a great new opportunity in the geographic area I was was working for. I would not have found this position without Venturion's help and support and I was very pleased with the result.
Jay McElhenney
I met Don Huse for the first time seeking more information. He was inviting, thoughtful, and almost peaceful while I was at a personal low point. I had been unemployed at a management level for three months, and had not made any progress on my own. Venturion’s coaching and tools turned me around and taught me how to effectively market myself. I landed a new job, in management, in my niche field, within 90 days of starting my work with Venturion. It’s a gift that keeps on giving! It is very clear that Don and the people around him know business, but, more importantly, they know people, and truly care and invest themselves in what they do!
Maureen Concklin
Venturion was far more than expected! I had recently moved to Texas & prior to meeting with Don, had applied for a few jobs but heard nothing back. I'm so glad I didn't continue down that path! Instead, they re-directed me inside myself; who was I & what made me thrive? With new found clarity, I quickly took the first steps, but with Arlene at my side...providing non-stop support & enthusiasm! In no time I made a personal connection, interviewed & got my perfect job! Highly recommended!!!
JoAnne Patterson
I had the services of Venturion to prepare for a career move. As expected, I received full service coaching including strategic sessions to target companies and industries as well as other recommendations, not to mention the fact that Venturion was always willing to help and Donna was available to talk when I needed to review options. It was a pleasant experience.
Carlos Silva
The Venturion team was instrumental in helping me advance my career during a time of transition. Through Venturion I gained access to many valuable research tools and the coaching I received from Sally Daniel enabled me to prepare and take my career to a higher level. Venturion is a top-notch organization with excellent resources and experienced leadership. I offer my strongest recommendation to anyone seeking career transition guidance.

Brad Stokes
Almost 12 years ago I had the pleasure of meeting Don Huse and his staff. The group at Venturion were key ingredients in helping me to find a career. The skills they taught have lasted me many years as I've transitioned to a position that I really enjoy. Don Huse and Donna McIlveen not only got me on my way, they have stayed in touch and continued to help whenever I've asked. The talent and integrity of this group is beyond anything I expected. This is the best investment that I've ever made!

It is my sincere belief that the best decision I have chosen in my career path thus far was to invest in Venturion.  You are all so wonderful and proficient at your expertise. There is so much I want to say that I find difficulty articulating my sentiments into words. I want you to know I am truly grateful.
Fabiola Miranda
I just wanted to drop you a quick note about the value that I found with Venturion as I went through my career transition.  Venturion’s approach was very straightforward and organized in transitioning me from looking at a current job to approaching my job search as my day-to-day activity.

Darrell Wolle
Arlene and the staff at Venturion were the critical missing piece in helping me start a second career. After weeks of unproductive searching, they taught me how to figure what would be the right fit and to get laser focused and effective. The networking skills I learned have become powerful tools in my current position. The process really works, just open your mind to it and let them help you get the position you always wanted!
Michael Brown
Venturion offers its clientele the kind of customized, high calibre solutions rarely found in the career consultation industry today. With Venturion, you get a true partnership with advisors you can trust for the long haul.
Clay Worley
The Venturion team helped me navigate the private sector as I transitioned from the military. They guided me through the process of recognizing strengths, capitalizing on them, and mastering presentation to potential employers/associates. Donna helped me develop strategies to map a path to my goals. With her guidance, I was able to seek out and embark on my new journey. The Venturion team’s coaching and guidance will pay dividends for the rest of my professional life. Thank you!
Christina Slaton
Venturion helped me translate the skills I developed while in the military into options for a career outside of the military. Most importantly, they listened and suggested. Venturion led me through a process of discovery that I couldn't have done on my own. Now, I'm on my way and am enjoying my second career.
John Sacks
My end result? I out-processed the military one week, and started the absolute perfect position the following week... a Project Manager job I didn’t even think existed. My perfect world mashed up Project Management and Healthcare Management (my military career), and that’s exactly what I found... and at a higher salary than the target range I was shooting for.
Danica Zenquiz
I retained Venturion as I was transitioning from business/retail to the biotech industry. What I was able to learn is still with me today. Their expertise and support in navigating the myriad of paths, good and bad, was phenomenal. They provide powerful tools to aid you in your career search. Thanks! You guys are awesome!
Jason Garner
The Venturion Team is one of the most professional organizations I have worked with, Don, Arlene and the rest of the staff are always willing to listen and offer great advice. After a lengthy job hunt on my own with no results (not even and interview) I went to Venturion for help and advice. Once they laid out the game plan for me, it seemed easy and exciting to be on the hunt. I ended up orchestrating a new position in a company that "had no position for me". Thanks Don, Arlene and Sally.
Stacy Crow
The staff at Venturion were instrumental in assisting me through a major career transition. The staff is professional and thorough in their approach to transitioning others successfully to a new career field, but not just any career field. They helped me determine what I really passionate about, leading me to the D.C. area.
Robert Sherbondy
I really have landed the perfect job for me and I couldn't be more pleased. I basically did everything you told me to do. I was able to get to a place where I could choose between two great opportunities and leverage them against each other to get myself the best compensation package possible.  Bottom line: I found the perfect career opportunity (not just a job) with a great future.
