LISTEN TO PODCAST

Marcelo keeps his finger on the pulse of the changing career landscape for international students. His advice is actionable, positive, and realistic, all at the same time.

Having personally experienced the challenges of starting a career in the U.S. as an international student, Marcelo Barros’ experience and expertise are a wonderfully contextualized resource for other international students hoping to do the same

Marcelo does an outstanding job of enthusiastically addressing the many pathways and strategies for international students pursuing their career paths in the U.S. His presentation was extremely well-received and appreciated by our international students

Marcelo's ISEL framework provides a clear, easy way for students to develop their unique value proposition for employers in the US...or anywhere.

The one-on-one feedback sessions with Marcelo were insightful and provided students with customized feedback tailored to their career goals

When it comes to helping international students achieve their job search goals or inspiring individuals to pursue global careers, Marcelo brings passion and deep know-how into these discussions

Informative. Interesting. Imperative. A great experience for our internationals

Marcelo brings creativity and experience when creating programs that address the career development needs of international students while being mindful of the needs of employers who hire international students.

Marcelo’s experience, knowledge and passion is a game changer for every international student seeking career advice. As an author and speaker, Marcelo offers his audience an insight and advantage to remain competitive in the global economy.

Your program was terrific Marcelo! You provide practical advice on how international students can reframe their candidacy as a strength for companies. Not only that, your style and energy motivate students to action. They know you are sincere and genuine

Marcelo expertly blends a formula for success with a message that resonates deeply with our international students: that they have unique experiences and skills that make them incredibly valuable to U.S. employers.

Marcelo provided the SJC Brooklyn international students with an interactive program that enabled them to begin to identify their unique skills as they prepare a US job search. He challenged them to "get fit". Each student left with a call to action

It was a pleasure having Marcelo speak and I am sure we’ll invite him back on campus again

Marcelo was a joy to work with and we hope to have him back in the near future

Marcelo is by far the most well-versed consultant we’ve hired to work with international students

Given the impact of Marcelo’s first ISEL session at our campus, we have decided to add The International Advantage session to our international student orientation

Having hired two other outside consultants to provide job search training for international students in the past, I can attest that The International Advantage is the most effective program I have seen to date

I would recommend that any college or school incorporate The International Advantage into their career services programming.
