Kelly Magowan nee Kaplon has been specialising in the arena of Human Resource Management, Recruitment and Career Coaching for 12 years. Initially focusing on commercial recruitment, and later moving into corporate Human Resources working with the likes of Ernst & Young and General Electric. In these roles Kelly was exposed to best practice HR and developed a true passion for Human Resources Management.
Earlier on in her career, Kelly spent a few years working in commercial recruitment for companies such as Select Appointments, Chandler MacLeod (formerly Recruitment Solutions) and Qudos. During her time at Qudos Kelly identified a gap in the marketplace for affordable and personalized career coaching services for non-professionals. This led her to establish a Career Transition service. In addition to this, Kelly also developed a HR Consulting service that supported SME’s with professional, economical and practical HR solutions.
In early 2003 Kelly co-founded The Clarity Group Pty Ltd, a company specializing in recruitment across a diverse range of professions, from Accounting & Financial Professionals through to Office Support Staff. In addition to recruitment, The Clarity Group Pty Ltd provides One-On-One Career Coaching Services and a Human Resource Consulting Service for SME’s.. Kelly sold her share in the company in late 2006.
In early 2007 Kelly began developing Six Figures the Premium Job Site for high salary earners to connect with $100K+ job opportunities, across all industries and professions. The site launched in March 2008 and was quoted by Springwise, the global trending spotting site, as one of the next trends to watch. More recently Six Figures has been listed by Hitwise as one of the ‘fast movers’. Six Figures is building a reputation as the job site with integrity that delivers both great job opportunities and a high quality of relevant applicants to Advertisers.
Kelly’s experience working across HR, Recruitment & Career Coaching has provided her with a solid understanding of what the job market looks like, what employers look for and the common experiences and challenges both face.
Kelly has completed a Masters in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, a Graduate Certificate in HR Management, a Bachelor of Arts and a Certificate IV in Workplace Assessment & Training. Kelly is a professional member of the Australian Association of Career Counsellors, the Australian Human Resources Institute and the Melbourne Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Kelly also writes for the Six Figures Blog as well as contributing to Australian Women Online and CEO Online as well as being a professional speaker on the topics of Career Management, Personal Branding and Salary Negotiation. You can follow me on Twitter at kellykaplon
