A Decade Inside the Hiring Room

I am Samantha Russell, an HR professional and recruiter with nearly a decade of experience spanning talent acquisition, workforce planning, and career development. I have been the person on the other side of the table: the one screening resumes before an 8am interview, deciding who gets a callback and who does not, the one who knows exactly why a perfectly qualified candidate gets filtered out before a human ever reads their application.

That experience is the foundation of everything I do at One Stop Therapy Shop. When I write a resume, I am not following a template. I am applying real hiring intelligence to tell your story the way a recruiter needs to hear it.

The OSTS Mission

In 2017, I opened One Stop Therapy Shop with a single belief: professional quality career support should not be reserved for people who can afford premium retainers at executive coaching firms. The job market is competitive at every level. Everyone deserves access to expert guidance.

That mission has not changed. What has changed is the focus. Today, every service I offer is designed around one goal: giving you the best possible version of your professional story, written by someone who has been on both sides of the hiring process. No outsourcing. No templates. Just real expertise, delivered in 4 hours.
