Do You See Yourself Here?

Most of our clients arrive in one of three situations. If any of these sound familiar, we can help.

Scenario One

"Content Ted"

  • Has never searched for a job before — the process feels daunting.
  • Concerned about being judged or discriminated against due to age.
  • Anxious about new and uncharted territory.
  • Tenure usually at one company, often 20+ years — documenting dozens of successes feels overwhelming.
  • Uncomfortable promoting himself and highlighting his strengths.

Scenario Two

"Aspirational Archie"

  • Thought he would be in a higher position and earning more money by now.
  • Aims to make seven figures by the time he is 50.
  • Has moved up rapidly across several companies and needs to overcome the perception of being a 'job hopper.'
  • Knows he is worth much more than he is paid and wants top dollar for his skills.
  • Title, money, and responsibility are critical — in that order.

Scenario Three

"Toxic Tina"

  • Willing to take a pay cut to escape her toxic work environment.
  • Current job is causing severe physical and emotional distress.
  • As colleagues leave, her workload increases — exacerbating her stress.
  • High anxiety from interactions with her egomaniacal boss, even from emails or texts.
  • Needs to jump ship yesterday but wants to avoid landing in another toxic environment.

If you see yourself in any of the scenarios above, here is how we can help.

Before You Continue — Who We Do Not Work With

We are highly selective about who we partner with. This is not arrogance — it is how we protect the quality of results we deliver.

Looking for a Recruiter

We are not a recruiting firm. We help you build the foundation to choose the job you want.

High-Level Government or Educational Jobs

These occupations have very different hiring processes than the corporate world.

People Who Are Difficult to Work With

If you have a negative attitude or are difficult to work with, we are not the right fit.

Looking for a Quick Fix

We do not offer quick fixes. Our process takes time and dedication. If you need a job within 60 days, our method will not suit your timeline.

Non-Coachable People

If being 'right' is more important to you than being effective, we cannot help you.

People Who Struggle with Instruction

If you find it hard to take instruction, our guidance will not benefit you.

People Who Do Not Trust Experts

You need to trust our advice and process. If you plan to tell us how to do our job, we are not for you.

In an Immediate Financial Crisis

If you need urgent financial help, you are in a reactive situation and not ready for our process.

Lacking Basic Tech Skills

If you cannot navigate basic computer functions or websites, we cannot assist you effectively.

Disrespectful of Time

If you constantly need attention and monopolize our time, we are not the right fit.

Here's Who We Love to Work With

Rock Stars. If you are proactive, coachable, an overall cool person, and open to trusting our proven process — the one that has helped over 2,000 successful clients — we can help you achieve your career goals.

"Doing the work surrounding inventorying my career's accomplishments, branding myself, building my network, and the myriad of other activities involved in leveling up for a career change were areas that I elected not to leave to chance."
— Stacy B. ★★★★★
