"I was laid off from my job at a startup right before New Years. Cultivated Culture's strategies helped me land a new job as a Marketing Director in under 3 weeks."

"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, Forrest coached me on 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, Forrest 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."

"A “squiggly career” probably best defines my professional path as a generalist, having worked across many (albeit related) industries and roles in my 20s and early 30s. The challenge I faced in my job search—following a postgraduate degree and relocating back to the UK post-pandemic—was navigating a newly stratified workplace, where job descriptions had become more specialized. Additionally, as a mid-career professional, I also encountered the challenge of workforce juniorization. Through very thoughtful sessions with Forrest, along with the online material provided by Austin, we crafted a strategy that was clever, well-evidenced, and ultimately worked like a charm. I cannot recommend this course highly enough if finding a great job is important to you—you are in very good hands."

"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."

"I'm a marketing professional with experience in customer retention, omni-channel campaigns, and conversion optimization. I specialize in developing data-driven marketing strategies that nurture customers throughout their journey. My biggest challenge was prioritizing tasks and coming up with a strategy to target specific companies that offered both competitive compensation and growth opportunities. I needed expert guidance to navigate the market efficiently and effectively. The most valuable aspects of Adriana's coaching were her approach to overall target company strategy and offer negotiations. Her guidance helped me leverage the offers I received into a better overall compensation package. Her ability to provide real-time feedback during critical moments of my search was invaluable."
