Today we’d like to introduce you to Andre Neal.
Hi Andre, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself
It all started when I was an instructor at a local college. I began to notice that many graduates were becoming frustrated with their career search. As I spent time coaching with them, I realized there was a gap so thus I created my first program called The Bridge. This program focused on personal branding, image consulting, and career readiness skills. All of which many of the students were in need of in order to “land the job of their dreams” after graduating.
To date, that which was more of a hobby in an effort to assist students became the very thing I am currently so very passionate about.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
This journey had its ups and downs. While I enjoyed spending time career mapping, setting SMART goals, and walking students through brand discovery, it required more time than I was able to give at times. I did not find pleasure in having to reschedule or shorten the time that I knew students needed during specific sessions.
We’ve been impressed with Andre Dwaine &Co, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?

What has been the most important lesson you’ve learned along your journey?
One of the most important lessons I have learned on this journey is that every client is not “my” client. Just as there are McDonald’s and Burger King, every client has a collection of preferences that they are looking for. Sometimes you are the best fit as a service provider and sometimes you are not. I have learned it is ok. It does not mean you are incompetent in your delivery; it just means they are not your potential client.
