My Approach
I give clients a clear plan of action and helpful resources so they can land a stellar job in the quickest and least stressful way possible.
Aside from all the critical components (resume, cover letter, LinkedIn profile, interview prep), I ensure that clients take a full self-inventory and are branding themselves in the most specific and strategic way.
I also help them use a multi-pronged networking approach to tap the hidden job market — the large percentage of jobs that aren’t posted online.
My Story
It all started when working in recruiting and HR in both the corporate and non-profit sectors. While doing full-cycle recruiting for a wide array of positions, I’ve reviewed tens of thousands of resumes and cover letters, interviewed hundreds of job seekers, and made job offers to over two hundred final candidates. I really saw it all — the good, bad and everything in between.
In doing this work, I quickly learned why certain job seekers stood out and why others landed in the “no” pile. More than anything, I was motivated and inspired to arm candidates with the knowledge and skills to be successful in their job search. I had remembered making so many of the same mistakes when I was job searching and wanted to help others avoid these doozies.
So how did I go from recruiter to career coach? My interest was sparked while volunteering at Upwardly Global, an organization that assists underserved populations with their job search. There I conducted mock-interviews and provided resume consultation. I knew at that moment that I was meant to do this work!
I then completed the Certified Professional Career Coach program through the Professional Association of Resume Writers and Career Coaches, the longest-running professional association of its kind.
The coaching skills I honed from this program along with my experience on the “other side of the table” propelled me into starting my own coaching business.
I’ve since helped many clients, across industries, get clarity in their job search and either get job offers or make it to the final round of interviews at companies like: Google, Amazon, Logitech, Wells Fargo, FanDuel, Monster, The Gap, Ticketmaster, Boston Consulting Group, McKinsey, County of Los Angeles, and other smaller companies, start ups and nonprofit organizations.
