Careers by Bruce | Résumé & Career Coaching

Terms of Service

Tell your story. Land your opportunity. These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) explain how you may access and use the coaching services, website, and related resources provided by Careers by Bruce (the “Services”). By engaging with the Services, you are entering into a professional partnership designed to help you move from uncertainty about your presentation to confidence in your story. Please read these Terms carefully before using the site or booking any sessions.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using this website, submitting an inquiry, booking a coaching session, or otherwise engaging with the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and any additional policies referenced here (collectively, the “Agreement”). If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not use the website or Services.

You represent that you are at least 18 years old or have reached the age of majority in your jurisdiction, and that you have the legal authority to enter into this Agreement. If you are accessing the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf.

2. Use of the Site and Services

The website and Services are intended to support professionals in clarifying, refining, and communicating their career stories, résumés, and online profiles. The Services are personal and tailored to your unique background, goals, and target opportunities. They are not a generic résumé template, automated LinkedIn tool, or legal, financial, or psychological service.

You may use the website and Services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Use the Services in any way that violates applicable local, national, or international law or regulation.
  • Misrepresent your identity, experience, or authorization when engaging with the Services.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the website, other users’ information, or systems supporting the Services.
  • Use any automated means, including bots or scrapers, to access or copy content from the website without prior written permission.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the operation of the website or the experience of other users.

Careers by Bruce reserves the right to refuse, limit, or terminate access to the Services at any time if there is a reasonable belief that your use is unlawful, abusive, or inconsistent with these Terms.

All content on this website and provided as part of the Services—including but not limited to copy, frameworks, examples, guides, session materials, and branding—is owned byCareers by Careers by Bruce or used with permission, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the website and any materials provided to you for your personal, non-commercial career development. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, or otherwise exploit the content or materials for any commercial purpose without prior written consent.

During the course of coaching, you may share your own résumés, profiles, or other materials (collectively, “Client Content”). You retain ownership of your Client Content. By providing Client Content, you grant Bruce a limited, non-exclusive license to use, edit, and reference that content solely for the purpose of delivering the Services to you. Careers by Bruce will not resell or publicly share your Client Content in a way that identifies you without your explicit permission.

4. User Responsibilities

The Services are a collaborative process. Outcomes such as landing interviews, receiving offers, or advancing your career depend on many factors beyond Careers by Bruce’s control. To get the most from the partnership, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate, current, and complete information about your background, experience, and goals.
  • Be honest about your work history, credentials, and achievements, and avoid any misrepresentation in the materials we develop together.
  • Engage actively in the process, including completing pre-work, reviewing drafts, and providing timely feedback.
  • Use the strategies, messaging, and materials developed in coaching in a lawful and ethical manner.
  • Respect agreed-upon scheduling, payment, and cancellation policies communicated at the time of booking.

While Careers by Bruce partners with you to clarify your story, you are ultimately responsible for the decisions you make, the roles you pursue, and how you present and use the materials created through the Services.

5. Disclaimers

The Services are designed to help you present your experience more clearly, confidently, and strategically so you can pursue better opportunities. However, you understand and agree that:

  • Careers by Bruce does not guarantee specific outcomes, such as a certain number of interviews, job offers, promotions, or compensation levels.
  • All guidance, feedback, and suggestions are based on professional judgment and experience, but results will vary depending on your background, the market, and your own actions.
  • The website and any resources provided are offered on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied.
  • To the fullest extent permitted by law, Careers by Bruce disclaims all warranties, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Careers by Bruce be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with your use of the website or Services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Careers by Bruce’s total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the website or Services will be limited to the total amount you paid for the specific Services giving rise to the claim in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. In such cases, liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law.

7. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to them, the website, or the Services will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which Careers by Bruce primarily operates, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

You agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute informally by contacting Bruce using the contact details provided on the website. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally within a reasonable period of time, the parties agree to seek resolution through good-faith negotiations or, if necessary, through the courts of the governing jurisdiction.

8. Changes to Terms

Careers by Bruce may update or revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in the Services, legal requirements, or business practices. When changes are made, the “Last updated” date at the top of this page will be revised. Any material changes will apply prospectively and will not alter the terms of services that have already been fully performed.

Your continued use of the website or Services after any changes to the Terms have been posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree with the modified Terms, you should discontinue using the website and Services.
