BlueSteps Avaliações 

Simeon Wong, a Career Strategist and Executive Coach with BlueSteps, has done a wonderful job guiding me through a resume update. They have been committed and engage during consultation to seek out my career highlights and help me present these within my resume for a best fit at this time.

Total scam. In my opinion the good reviews here are suspect. Run as fast as you can.

BlueSteps is running a scam. They get you to sign up for a “Lifetime Membership” for hundreds of dollars but they hide the fact they then charge you $99 a year on your card with zero notification. And it’s impossible to cancel. There is no BlueSteps phone number and they never answer a single email. I’ve been trying to reach someone there for six months with no luck. I had to have my credit card company block more charges from Bluesteps. VERY DEVIOUS SCAMMY BEHAVIOR!

The team is readily accessible for any issue or resolution. Their pricing is very reasonable, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for web management/SEO to build their business.

Paid for the premium service, no contact, no interest, no answer… nothing. Of very little value to EMEA customers.

I have been thoroughly impressed by the quality of the search consultants leading the sessions I've attended. Connecting with these search consultants through these events is a significant advantage, and they have been kind enough to add me to their networks. Additionally, it's been great to revisit past webinars and take note of the search consultants and career advisors who host them. The insights and connections gained from these sessions have been invaluable.

I recently attended an outstanding networking event hosted by BlueSteps. The event was well-organized and brought together a diverse group of professionals and industry leaders. The atmosphere was welcoming and conducive to meaningful conversations and connections. The event's highlight was interacting directly with executive search consultants and career advisors. Their insights and advice were precious, and I appreciated their willingness to engage and share their expertise. The event also included informative sessions that provided practical career advancement and job-searching tips.

Similar to the experience of others. Paid a lifetime membership in 2019 (£229) for no value and within 6 months they took another credit card payment and continued to try and take payments. Generally uncontactable. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

The global experience, in depth knowledge of topics and sensitivity to different cultures and contexts is immensely insightful

Breadth of speakers' experiences and geographies was very much on point given the topic.

Really enjoyed the webinar. Well organized and relevant content, the panel was articulate and spoke from deep experience. The moderator kept the conversation moving in a dynamic way. 10/10 would do it again.

It was a solid albeit simplistic review of LinkedIn and personal branding. The title of the session was 'Positioning Your LinkedIn Profile for Executive Influence' but the session delivered was 'Positioning Your LinkedIn Profile for Executive Recruiters'. There is long term value in positioning for influence that has nothing to do with getting a job today or possibly ever. For instance 10% people are self employed (often at a very high income level).

Absolute Thieves. I aid for their service in 2019, received one introductory consultancy for a reasonable cost but decided not to use their service because generic and avg quality.

in 2024 I receive a charge on my credit card of 79 pounds for membership I have never received, I sent 5 emails to get it corrected and they have not replied. I'm trying to stop the bank from paying but I'm to sure I will be able to do it. To unsubscribe from the website you need to send an email to the same address from which I have received any answer.

I'm going after them, but do not fall in their trap

Simply a scam, disguised in c-level profiles and events.
I was first tempted to a 1 year subscription that ended very quickly with an "exclusive" offer for a "lifetime" subscription. But guess what, suddenly the "lifetime" turns into a yearly that is expired and they ask you for an exorbitant yearly renewal amount.
Not only that, you are promised exclusive access to exclusive content, which turns to be available everybody on publicly available websites. And when asking about specific geography opportunity, you are told that there aren't many available for this geography and they are only US based.
You see every issue has a manipulative answer and you never get the honest truth that this is scam for those aspiring to be in the senior leadership ranks.

Scam. Complete scam. RUN AWAY!

If I could give them zero stars, I would.

They are simply preying on vulnerable people who are looking for jobs.

As others have written, they take your $299 then auto renew your supposed "lifetime membership" for $99 each year.

Their executive listings are aggregated from other sites.

They don't have any actual customer service to speak of and don't respond to inquiries.

At best, they are grossly incompetent and at worst they are criminal.

Don't waste your money or time.

It’s a scam. Paid for a lifetime subscription and was informed 2 years later that my subscription has expired. They do not reply to queries and complaints.
As for the quality of expertise at webinars - very outdated and generic. Complete waste of time and money.

As an Executive and Columbia Business School MBA, I was offered a discounted yearly subscription to BlueSteps through our Alumni portal. The subscription cost around $215 dollars for a term of 12 months. Looking back, I wish I had avoided joining this platform.

BlueSteps can be best described as a job listings aggregator, similar to other mainstream websites. In my first month using BlueSteps, many of their specialty job search functions were non-operational or disabled, including the AESC Executive recruiter database and exclusive listings. As a paying user, I felt that I was receiving a poor return on my initial investment. At the time, I sent BlueSteps support an email conveying my concern on these issues and it went unanswered.

When BlueSteps rebooted these features in 12/2023, I found that a majority of the job listings were international (non-US) and mostly in the academic sector. When looking in the US, and in areas like NYC, I found a general lack of recruiters and listing that were contrary to BlueSteps value proposition when I signed up.

Since I paid for a full year in advance, I held out hope that my site experience would improve - it didn't. Four months into my annual subscription, BlueSteps attempted to issue a new annual subscription for my account onto my payment card. I was notified via email that my payment didn't process (one that i didn't anticipate being due) and that my subscription was suspended. I'm not sure what to say, as my payment card didn't change, yet BlueSteps continued to attempt rebilling me weekly through the next four weeks. Over this process, I was surprised at how active BlueSteps was to take steps to deactivate my account visibility and access to their platform features, while ignoring any requests for support as to why my annual subscription was being rebilled after four months of service.

I spent a considerable amount of time reaching out to Bluesteps, via their website email, LinkedIn page, and known BlueSteps Executive consultants to try and get assistance. Its clear that this firm lacks a modern customer service proposition - seven personalized emails and multiple voicemails went unanswered over four weeks - and when calling their corporate line, I found that their corporate number was either invalid or had a full voicemail.

I had strong hopes for BlueSteps and their partnership with AESC. This experience left me very disappointed and I do not recommend this service for others Executives looking for job opportunities within the US.

Ironically, through this journey, BlueSteps still has not removed my payment card from their system after multiple emailed requests. I feel that I will be forever tied to this firm, in the event they wish to bill me for a service I no longer desire. I am emphatic for others who have allayed their concerns with similar stories with BlueSteps and hold out hope that the firm remedies these issues.

Good pace by chairperson ; wanted to hear more about the differences to other Boards.

All the panelist were very knowledgeable and provided great advice.
