“I went to Darryl Cross for career guidance because I wasn’t sure which course I wanted to study after school and which year 11 and 12 subjects were right for me. We discussed my interests and I did some exercises which explained my personality style; this then helped to guide me to an area of interest for tertiary study which I feel comfortable with.”

“Darryl’s guidance helped me to see who I really am not only in my personality, but how I work and what’s really important to me in terms of values at work.

“My search led me to Dr Darryl Cross, Crossways Consulting, to whom I posed the statement “I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up”. After an initial consultation, Darryl suggested I undergo a series of assessments. Dubiously I filled in the tests and an extremely detailed analysis on specific career recommendations was personally prepared for me – focusing on my professional interests along with my personal strengths and weaknesses. I could not believe the depth of information gleaned from my answering a series of questions in a relatively short period of time. Career recommendations that I had past considered but rejected for one reason or another were presented to me along with several recommendations that I would never have dreamt of pursuing. This is what I had been seeking – constructive vocational direction. A second consultation with Darryl provided me with insight into the depth of the report and strategies for taking this information further, turning the questionnaire into a positive step toward a new pathway. Upon Darryl’s advice and guidance I ranked the career recommendations I received in the report and narrowed my choices. I have since applied for, and was successful in obtaining, a position at Uni studying my first preference, Behavioral Science (Psych.). As a mature age entry student I am excited by the challenges, rewards and opportunities that lie ahead. Don’t know what you want to be when you grow up?” Take the tests..…discover what your future holds.”

“Darryl’s open and friendly manner made conversing and discussing career options a relaxing and enjoyable experience through his wide variety of testing methods where a thorough, unbiased and objective result was revealed. His collaboration of information was surprisingly accurate and the conclusions drawn were logical and easy to follow. It opened my eyes to many previously unconsidered occupations, some of which I found remarkably appealing. It gave me a greater understanding of my own personality and strengths which will be helpful in the future. Thanks so much Darryl, it was an enlightening experience.”

“When I came to Crossways Consulting a couple of years ago, I was unhappy in my work, very much a square peg in a round hole. After a very thorough first meeting, I was given a number of questionnaires to take away and do in my own time. The results of these were collated into an easy to read report which detailed my qualities and strengths as well as the jobs I was most suited to. These jobs included some which I would never have thought of. Since getting my test results, I now have a different career direction which has been very successful.”
