About Us

CareerToolboxUSA was created in 2012 to help you take your personal brand to the next level!

Co-founder Graham Riley has led teams in almost every area of business—marketing, sales, customer service, accounting – you name it! He’s acquired a broad set of occupational skills along the way; more importantly, he’s developed a passion for spotting talent and nurturing it to its full potential.

He knows the value each team member brings. He enables each person to play to their strengths. He’s seen how companies thrive with employees who enjoy their work and feel appreciated.

First the 2002 dot-com bust, and then the housing crisis of 2008 stalled the economy. Riley was devastated to have to let valuable employees go in an uncertain market.

That was when he decided to help. He reached out as a volunteer in talks and workshops at churches, networking groups, and other organizations. The structured approach he developed helped thousands put their best foot forward in the marketplace.

At first, Riley focused on crafting the best resumes and the most effective cover letters. When LinkedIn came on the scene in 2005, he became an early user. He blended its services with more traditional tools to aid in the job search process. Ultimately, he developed a proprietary method to make the most of this easily-accessed platform.

He combined all these skills into two loci within CareerToolboxUSA and Social Business Strategies. 

Today he brings a unique ability to help any job seeker get ahead at any point of their career.
