"I was lost and had tried everything, but my job search was clearly hitting a wall. I needed support, accountability, and a framework with clear steps each week so I could actually see progress and rebuild confidence in myself. I needed a process and someone who could help me trust it. All of that (and more!) I found at Cultivated Culture, working with my coach and Austin's team. Their framework, spreadsheets, videos, materials, tips, and suggestions cut through all the noise out there and helped me focus on what really matters. They helped me learn as I went, stay grounded through the lows, and keep moving forward. It was a humbling, inspiring, and incredibly positive experience that I would recommend to anyone. Having Austin and his team in my corner was huge and helped me eventually land three offers! (And yes, I read stories like this before and didn’t believe them, but trust me… I did it!) 10/10 for them, super recommended!"

"The biggest challenge I was facing was landing interviews for jobs that I was interested in. I didn't understand why I kept being overlooked, so I turned to Cultivated Culture for help. My coach walked me through my resume and helped me update it to highlight my accomplishments at my prior jobs with defined results. No longer was I just listing out my responsibilities, but rather showing the value that I would bring to the companies that I was applying to. With my updated resume and the tools and resources provided in the program, I received a job offer at my top company!"

"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."

"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."

"I work in Corporate Finance. I was laid off for the first time prior to starting with Cultivated Culture, and it really shook my confidence. I struggled reaching out to contacts and getting past just applying on LinkedIn and hoping for the best. My partner used Cultivated Culture in the past, and the Dream Job System got him out of a slump and into a job that jump started his current career. I decided to go with the extra step of coaching to keep myself accountable and also have a third party sounding board. The most valuable part of coaching for me was how much tools like ChatGPT can be utilized to revamp your resume, LinkedIn, create cover letters, and VVPs. I always saw AI as a crutch, but in reality it just streamlines and saves so much time. The content is still yours, ChatGPT just pushes it that extra mile. The three biggest strategies I used were: reaching out to hiring managers after applying to make sure I was top of mind, looking at company employees to see how long of a tenure they had, if they were getting promoted, etc, and finding that balance of personal and professional narratives when interviewing. I would not have landed the position I currently have without their help and support."

"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."
