It all started with a phone call …
One evening a few years ago, I got a panicked call from a friend, asking for advice on negotiating a job offer. Then another friend reached out, asking me to review their brother’s resume. Soon, I was asked for advice on how many jobs to apply to and how to prepare for interviews. Once the questions started, they never stopped.
Through these conversations, I realized that people often feel unprepared for the job search process and that my experience working as a recruiter and leading talent teams gave me an insider’s view on how to navigate the process. Drawing on my experience with individual and group tutoring, I began coaching people through their job searches.
