Coaching From the Hiring Side of the Table

Most career advice comes from people who have never made a hiring call. This program is built on what we see every day as executive recruiters working directly with employers: how hiring decisions actually get made, what moves a candidate forward, and what quietly takes a candidate out of the running.

The program is five structured sessions, roughly one per week, with homework after every session. The work between sessions is where the progress happens. It is not a resume service and it is not a pep talk. It is a working system for running a job search the way a search professional would run it.

How It Works

Every session ends with homework. Each one builds on the last.

Session 1: Foundation
Your story, your resume, and your online presence, aligned around one clear target. This is where we define what makes you a fit, not just what makes you available.

Session 2: Going to Market
Your search goes live. We identify where you genuinely fit and put you in front of the people who can actually say yes, not just the job boards, but proactive searching.

Session 3: Progress Review and Course Correction
We look at what is producing real traction and adjust before momentum stalls. Interview readiness starts here.

Session 4: Preparing for the Final Stretch
A full mock interview and an honest debrief, along with the habits that separate a candidate who gets remembered from one who gets forgotten.

Session 5: Closing It Out
How to evaluate an offer and negotiate it with confidence. This session is bankable for up to 90 days, so it is ready when a real offer lands.

Who It Is For

New graduates entering the market for the first time, and experienced professionals a few months into a search that has stalled. The program asks for real work between sessions. If you are willing to do the work, it will meet you there.

Investment

The program is $1,000, paid in advance of the first session. No packages, no upsells, no ongoing retainer.

Career coaching is a standalone service, fully separate from our search practice. Candidates in Retention Search engagements are never charged a fee.
