I've had the pleasure of being guided by Varun and it's been an extremely fruitful experience. He gave me all the information necessary and walked me through each step. He provided me with necessary support that I couldn't find from other such or rather more well known industry firms. More than anything he's created a comfortable environment for me to share my situation easily. I consider him a good friend who I can chat with on a daily basis and i appreciate his degree of emotional understanding which is what sets him apart from his competitors.
I urge anyone who's in a similar position to give Varun a shot and find out for themselves, why Headstartcareers are the best option out there.

Today's world is saturated with information and requirements. Varun is organized and targeted in his approach for job searching, interviewing and general coaching.
Without Varun's help we would not have been able to meet application deadlines and complete all the required materials.
Plus he gives very good advice for interviewing and general job search. Highly recommend!

Had a great experience with Varun! His resume building skills are unmatched.
I’d recommend him if you’re looking for a job with a focus in either Finance or Analytics.

Varun and his team have been of inestimable help for me with achieving my career goals. Varun, not only understood exactly what I wanted, but also exactly how to get there. He understands resumes, cover letters, and the rest of it better than anyone does.
Now that he is building a strong team behind him, this isn’t only for the finance world, but for any type of career trajectory.
Having done so much in his own career, he is well aware of what is needed to get to where people want to be, and he is a very skilled writer that has transformed my resume and cover letters, and brought them to the next level.
Most importantly, Varun and his team have successfully got me to the job I was looking for, and for that I am eternally grateful.
