Terms of Service and Agreement

I. Refund Policy
Our clients tell us that our career services exceed their expectations and provide great value. In the event that you are not satisfied with the delivery of our services, we will work with you in good faith until you are satisfied or until services have been delivered as promised according to our highest standards of quality and excellence.

A. Individual Career Services
No refunds are available on resume, cover letter, or interview and negotiation skill preparation once work is in progress. Because our coaching services are consumed at the time and point of delivery, we regret that we cannot offer refunds after a completed coaching session.

B. Career Service Packages
Due to the personalized nature of our services and commitment to our clients, considerable time and effort are put into the expedient and successful delivery of our services. If a refund is requested for a career service package and the delivery of the career services has already commenced with the client, the client will be charged 50% of the total career package price plus a $100 service cancellation fee. After a cancellation has taken place, any services that have commenced with the client or are in progress will cease. Unfortunately, due to the termination of the service agreement by the client, Thomas & Associates will no longer deliver or complete any services in progress.
Refunds are issued within 30 days of purchase. No refunds will be issued after 30 days from the date of purchase. Any other request for refunds not articulated in this policy will be decided by the discretion of Thomas & Associates, Inc.

II. Payment of Services
