I’m Don Bearden, the founder of BrightPath Career Solutions—and helping professionals succeed isn’t just my business, it’s my passion.
About Me
I launched this business after spending over 30 years in the pharmaceutical industry, with the past decade in leadership roles, building and leading high-performing teams. Throughout my career, I’ve reviewed hundreds of résumés, interviewed more than 250 job seekers, and hired and coached numerous award-winning representatives. It was truly a labor of love.
After retiring in March 2024, I found myself still actively engaged with former team members, assisting them with their job searches. I helped update résumés, provided interview coaching, and offered strategic career advice. The fulfillment I felt in helping others succeed was undeniable. The overwhelmingly positive feedback—and encouragement from those I helped—inspired me to launch BrightPath Career Solutions.
I’m passionate about guiding professionals through the job search process, particularly with résumé optimization, interview coaching, and performance improvement. Whether you're looking to land your next opportunity or elevate your career, I’d love the opportunity to support your journey.
