"Cultivated Culture has been an outstanding career coaching program and a huge value add to my job search. My coach was incredibly accessible and gave thoughtful, tailored advice rather than generic playbooks. His Loom video feedback on my LinkedIn profile and on a key presentation was especially helpful and actionable. I’d highly recommend them to anyone who wants practical, high-impact guidance and real results"

"After the last project I produced had a disappointing commercial release, I found myself in an extended period of unemployment. I was stuck and frustrated with where my career had seemingly stalled, and I was increasingly disheartened and confused by the lack of traction I was getting in my job search. I decided to sign up for Cultivated Culture and hire a coach because I wanted expert advice and strategy to break through the deadlock. My coach, Adriana, was able to provide me with a solid framework and strategy in not only finding my target companies, but in customizing my resume, tracking my progress, and building a Value Validation Project to distinguish myself from other applicants in a very congested industry. By far, the most valuable part of the coaching was to have an ally in the hunt and have access to a community of fellow job seekers that were willing to support my efforts and provide any strategy and tips that they could along the way. The networking strategies, AI prompts, LinkedIn optimization, and guidance around a Value Validation Project were all invaluable strategies for me in securing a new full-time position. I would highly recommend Cultivated Culture's coaching, and can say with confidence that I would still be in a frustrated and stagnant place if it wasn’t for the framework, diligent support, and guidance provided through the coaching program."

"Working with Cultivated Culture was easily one of the highest-leverage decisions I made in this transition. I was stepping into my first real interview process in 8+ years, and my first time ever navigating a negotiation that actually mattered. Cultivated Culture closed that gap. What stood out wasn’t just the advice, it was the clarity and timing of it. At each stage, they helped me focus on the moves that actually mattered, cut through noise, and approach the process more strategically. And their “light touch” accountability was exactly that, enough to keep momentum without ever feeling forced. The résumé feedback was also incredibly detailed and practical, it helped me sharpen how I articulate my value in a way that actually lands. End result: I showed up more confident, more prepared, and far more effective when it counted, and ultimately landed and accepted a great offer."

"One of the best programs out there to get you a job with real structure, proper planning, and true confidence. This program will prepare you so well for your interviews, projects, and salary negotiations that you'll think you've just gone through a bootcamp on life's most important skill: clearly communicating your value to get the income you truly deserve. I'm a Data Engineer who decided to go back into Accounting to pursue his CPA. Originally, I started my career as a Financial Auditor, then transitioned into the Data Science field as a Senior Business Intelligence Engineer (think Python, SQL, PowerBI, Tableau, Machine Learning, etc). After 2 years of greatness and several not so good moments and an unemployment period that seems to last forever, I decided to join Cultivated Culture. Adriana welcomed me right away and made me feel right at home. She has the ability to make you feel comfortable and cared for as a person every time you're on a coaching call with her. I appreciate how organized Adriana was for every call. There were clear expectations before and after each call, so I always knew what to do.  And of course, the Weekly Coaching calls added extra support to my eventual success. The support is second to none here at Cultivated Culture. I had several rounds of final interviewing before landing my current role. During one of them, after going through 3+ weeks of preparation, 30-60-180 Day planning, and interviewing, I did not get the final offer... I felt sad, frustrated, and ready to give up. But Adriana and the entire community helped me through that tough period. I got back up and prepared again. Several rounds of interviewing later, I landed my current job, and I was so happy! Thank you Adriana, Austin, Taylor, and the whole Cultivated Culture community for what you do daily. I appreciate you all from the bottom of my heart."

"The biggest challenge I was facing in my job hunt was networking. I just didn't know how to do it, what to say, how to reach out, etc...The success stories of other students made it very easy for me to give the coaching program a try! The most valuable part of the course for me has been the LinkedIn profile buildout and the network strategies. The network strategies in particular have given me a new skill set! If I need to, I now know how to reach out to anyone from any company and what to say to introduce myself. This skill set alone is worth the price of the program!"

"I am a consultant who was laid off in a workforce reduction following an acquisition. After taking stock, I decided to make a career pivot into change management. My job search lasted well over a year, and during that time I worked with three different career coaches. Because I was shifting away from previous roles, I didn’t have the job titles recruiters were looking for, which made the transition challenging. One of my coaches frequently referred to Austin Belcak’s method as the “gold standard” in career strategy. After many months of frustration, I decided to adopt the “gold standard” and make the self-investment in Cultivated Culture. In addition to their data-driven networking approach, I was impressed by the depth of their resources—especially the structured, practical tools for crafting strong interview responses. I also received a thorough, thoughtful revision of my résumé and LinkedIn profile, and almost immediately began receiving increased interest from recruiters. The highlight of my experience with Cultivated Culture, however, was working with Adriana Hidalgo as my career coach. Her dependable, timely feedback and supportive approach helped me stay on the path during an often discouraging process. Whenever I needed help refining emails, her edits and suggestions were consistently spot-on. I’m happy to share that I recently accepted an exciting new role—with a substantial increase in compensation—and Cultivated Culture played a meaningful part in helping me get there."
