I faced challenges as a newcomer to Canada to develop my career. David was always there to support me with coaching, interviews preparation, resume reviews, job search strategy, etc. But most importantly he gave me the opportunity to BELONG TO A COMMUNITY through webinars, facilitating workshops, and working together on exciting projects. His friendly and enthusiastic personality seeks the empowerment of those around him. For that reason, I am grateful to have met him because he definitely boosted my confidence to become a better professional.

It was a pleasure working with David Mendoza as a workshop developer and facilitator for a "Transitions to Life in Canada" webinar he prepared for the ACCES Employment Canadian Employment Connections (CEC) Pre-Arrival Program for internationally trained professionals before their arrival to Canada. This workshop was interactive and introduced mental health supports and other thoughtful considerations for newcomers to consider to make the most of their life in their new country. David takes a holistic approach to career development and helps drive home messages through compelling storytelling.

Thank you very much, David, for all your guidance and support since the beginning of my Canadian career path.

David is a fantastic professional and expert in his domain. He knows how to bring up the people from shell and help them in attaining the best positions for them. He is helping international students come out of the comfort zone and help them improve their skills and making them adapt Canadian work culture. I was literally impressed by the way he conducts trainings and groom people to reach the level they always wanted too. His work ethics are pristine, and he is easily adjustable to a given situation. His ability to go out of his way to help others has made him stand out. Thanks a lot, man!

I fully recommend David, he is such an amazing person, so motivational and focused on teaching you the right strategies for interviewing and job searching. I am very grateful that David invited me to the @orbit5 workshop which gave me incredible advice, and tips for the Canadian job market. Even after the workshop David followed up on me and supported me through my whole job search without even having to ask him.

It's safe to say I felt absolutely lost when I arrived in Canada, without any friends or relatives here. Almost soon after arriving, I began working as a Social Media Intern with Orbit5. Over the time, David and Orbit5 have provided me with a family here that I know I can rely on. David's compassionate demeanor, patience, and abundance of knowledge instantly struck me, and I knew he would have a significant impact on my life, and he did. After being misled into a job in January of this year, I had lost all hope and was demotivated to begin the job-search process all over again. His advice on networking, resume optimization, and job search strategies were so helpful that I had four interviews set up within a week of starting my job hunt. He also guided me in those interviews by conducting practice interviews that helped me see my own abilities and how to properly present them. Throughout the process, he was so patient and kind to me, and he was always available with motivating words whenever I needed them. David is one of the people who has helped me feel more at home here in Toronto. It is safe to say that without his guidance and friendship, I would not have landed my dream job, which I am extremely proud of. Thank you so much, David.

David is one of the best person that I met during my job search. He is a brilliant and gifted mentor who really understands how to get the best out of his mentees. Pandemic has given me a very tough time landing a job that I desired, however, David initiated a number of amazing one on ones with me, took mock behavioral interviews and gave me numerous tips to boost my confidence. He's definitely a pro at releasing the pressure before interviews. In addition to that, I regularly attended his weekly webinars, which helped me build confidence, naturally, during my online interviews. What really impressed me most about David is just how polished he is when presenting to large groups of people. It's without hesitation that I recommend David if you are an international student seeking tips/confidence to make the best out of the new country or a graduate seeking help building intrapersonal skills to ease a job interview or a person looking forward to expanding your network.

David is a friendly and optimistic person. I attended in some of his webinars, which helped me gain confidence and improve my public speaking skills. And we had numerous one-on-one meetings during which he taught me various interview tactics. I'd gladly suggest him, and working with him has been a fantastic experience.

Accessing the Canadian Job Market was a challenge for me. I was feeling insecure about who to address an interview, about my communication skills, and even about my possibilities for a position I was applying for. After one session with David, I gained confidence and was able to manage the interview. I gained confidence and was able to manage the interview which resulted in a job offer. I think that was not only the preparedness He provided that I valued the most, it was the human relationship we built and the sense of having some really listening. At least in my case, that makes the difference between real human coaching and an AI App.

David is an amazing coach and mentor. From the moment I contacted him as International Student struggling to find an internship during the COVID-19 situation, he was absolutely open and willing to support me. He assisted me to establish a strategy to land a job in Canada, through his significant expertise on LinkedIn, professional networking, and career development and transition. He has constantly encouraged and guided me through one to one sessions, webinars, and the creation of an inner circle group to have the perfect environment to help each other to pursue our goals. He has a real interest in helping international students to succeed, and believe in their personal and professional potential. I am absolutely grateful to David; because, within one month of the mentorship process with him, I was able to find the internship I was looking for.
