Free Masterclass: 6 Strategies To Get Hired Fast In 2026 (When Nothing Else Has Worked)

"When facing my job hunt, there were plenty of challenges. I'd given it a shot in a tough tech job market with what I'd already learned from my business graduate program and the general knowledge about networking, resumes, etc. and I wasn't seeing results. I wanted to invest in CC's coaching because I saw the rigor and time-tested best practices; I felt that this program would help me optimize and maximize my chances. I appreciated that they advocated for getting your dream job and not settling regardless of the circumstances. My main goal with my job hunt was to not have any regrets and know that I did all that I could, and I'm confident with the program's support that I did. The most valuable part of the coaching I received was the care and consistency of the support I got from my coach - he shared plenty of knowledge, wisdom, accountability and encouragement in a process that can be demoralizing at times! I'd also mention the DJS course and general CC content; there were countless nuggets of wisdom and principles that I'll continue to use throughout my career - like the "double nope". The program changed my approach to job hunting and networking for life, and I know it'll continue to pay dividends."

"Before I found Cultivated Culture, I was feeling stuck and frustrated in my job search. Despite having over a decade of HSE experience and tailoring countless applications, I was barely getting interview calls. I was really struggling to stand out and navigate the Canadian job market effectively. Working with my coach Adriana completely changed the game for me. She helped me shift my focus from just applying online to building real connections and showcasing my value through tailored outreach and value validation projects. Her guidance on how to position my international experience and align it with Canadian industry expectations was incredibly impactful. That led to a renewed sense of confidence, higher response rates from hiring managers, and a more strategic, data-driven approach to my job search."

"One of the biggest challenges for me in job hunting is how overwhelming it all is. I felt so unmotivated. My coach worked as the perfect accountability buddy. As someone uniquely acquainted with the hiring process, he helped me break down my to-do list in a way that made it more manageable. Together we perfected my resume and LinkedIn and did a mock interview to get me started again. He was also a sanity check and a voice of compassion when I was overthinking outreach and rejections. It helps to have someone who knows what it looks like on the hiring side of things. The most valuable part of coaching was having someone to report to and give me feedback on my outreach emails, resume, interview answers, as well as answer my questions no matter how silly they seemed. I'd absolutely recommend this program."

"Cultivated Culture has been a game changer for me with absolutely fantastic resources that helped me enhance my interview prep beyond imagination. I totally vouch for all the interview prep resources right from the step by step process of formulating a response to exact answers Austin himself used! They’ve encouraged me to proudly share my life experiences with recruiters and highlight my value and impact. And the best thing!? I managed to get a 90% hike on my new role, using the negotiation strategies Austin shares."

"Working with Adriana was a game changer. It saved me...Within two months of working with her, I turned my situation around. I WON'T be losing my house, and I'm fortunate enough to have gotten two different opportunities to choose from. The new role I've accepted has amazing benefits, is 100% remote, and has unlimited PTO...Because of Adriana and the team at Cultivated Culture, I now have a career as opposed to a couple of odd jobs on my resume that I landed by luck. I even have a few sessions left over that I plan to use to negotiate a raise or next move, and will be taking advantage of the group calls and email support that the team provides even after landing an opportunity."

KARINA Senior Manager, Operations

" I joined Cultivated Culture when I was unemployed and looking for a PM role at a flexible company. The networking and VIP calls were goldmines for me. They helped me develop my own approach to networking that resulted in an amazing job with a 25% raise over what I was making in my previous full time role."

Christina Project Manager

"Despite having 10 years of experience and an MBA, I was applying to jobs left and right and barely getting any interviews. I knew I was qualified, but I felt like I was hitting a wall and I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. On top of that, I was moving my job search to Amsterdam, which meant starting from scratch with a new network, since most of my connections were in the U.S. That’s when I came across Austin’s posts on LinkedIn. Even just applying the advice he shared on there made a noticeable difference. So I decided to take it a step further and invest in Cultivated Culture. I needed a program that would keep me focused, organized and give me a clear framework to follow. I also wanted personalized feedback on my resume, interview prep and a real person to answer my questions. My coach,was awesome! He was smart, responsive and genuinely supportive every step of the way. Thanks to this program, I transitioned from working at a museum to landing a job in tech, without compromising on the role, compensation, or the kind of work I wanted to do. I highly recommend Cultivated Culture to anyone starting or going through the job search."

Adriana Marketing Manager

"When I was laid off after six years in a senior customer success role, I found myself thrown into a job market that felt totally unrecognizable. I hadn’t searched in a decade, my LinkedIn was outdated, my resume was a mess, and the job hunt felt hostile and broken. I’d been given a career service by my former employer, but it ended up wasting months of my time. The resume rewrite I paid for was generic and ineffective, and I was getting almost zero responses despite applying to hundreds of roles. That’s when I found Cultivated Culture. Austin was the first person I’d come across who clearly laid out how the job market actually works today, why it’s broken, and what strategies you need to break through. That perspective alone was game-changing. And within just two days of working with Adriana, my resume was dramatically better than what I had gotten from an entire team elsewhere. The structured coaching, real-time access to someone who deeply understands the market, and clear strategies made all the difference. The networking strategy was especially helpful, as was the interview prep. which gave me the tools to craft compelling, personalized answers and a strong narrative I could feel proud of. Being able to bring those drafts to my coach and get direct, actionable feedback took things to the next level. Honestly, Cultivated Culture did more for me in two weeks than traditional career services did in two months. I finally felt like I wasn’t alone in the search, I had a team that understood the market and had my back."

Dan Customer Success Director

"I can’t recommend Cultivated Culture enough, I left my session with a new perspective on applying to jobs, and I’m excited to use more of Austin’s strategies I learned as I continue my job search!"

"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."

"As a 20+ year Learning & Development professional, I faced a unique challenge: moving into a very senior leadership role in my field. These roles are not only highly selective, but also very scarce. Additionally, I have worked for many leading companies with compensation structures far above the average and finding roles to match or exceed my current compensation was challenging. I explored Cultivated Culture’s free resources, I was impressed by the tools as well as the unique and applicable insights and tactics shared in blogs and the podcast (the interviewing questions ones are particularly excellent). I committed to the full coaching program. The wealth of resources in the full program from LinkedIn profile and resume optimization to job search, networking, and interview tactics are superb. But for me, there were two key takeaways from the private coaching that stood out. First, my coach showed me how to build a master résumé that I could tailor for each role. This gave me one solid base to work from, but a method to optimize versions for each role. This tactic saved me countless hours. Second, my coach provided valuable interview insights. Most notably encouraging me to balance “we” statements with “I” statements to highlight my individual contributions and distinguish myself as a leader as well as a team player (habitually, my company culture had trained me to over-index on "we" statements to foster collaboration, but this was undermining my impact in interviews). This was a particularly impactful insights that the private coaching provided that delivered significant impact. If you need help with your job search, I highly recommend that you seriously consider using Cultivated Culture to help. They provided me the guidance I needed to secure a new role which is fully remote and close to a $50k increase in my total compensation."

David Manager, Learning & Development

"I used Austin’s advice to meet individuals at the company I wanted to work for and gain a referral that got me a call back and an interview just 2 days after being referred. I used Austin’s interview preparation techniques to rock my interview, and I was offered a position as a front end developer to work for my first choice company."
