"I have been following Austin's LinkedIn posts and blogs for years before signing up for the coaching program. I appreciate the fact that the program has taught me a very important lesson that I can apply to any type of relationship building (beyond job hunting). The lesson is relationship building works best when you shift from the mentality of "can you be nice and do this for me?" to "what I can do for you? what challenges can I help you with?". Focus on understanding the other party's needs and challenges and how you can help them solve their problems pays off in the long run. This program really drives the point home."

"Cultivated Culture's coaching system resonated with me as I landed all of my career opportunities over the last 17 years through networking. That said, I was looking to branch out and explore tangential industries and needed a different mindset/approach. My coach expertly guided me to develop my criteria for evaluating career opportunities, pushed me to dive deeper into my brand, and served as an objective sounding board for the second half of my career. Highly recommend CC if your looking for a career coach who is an active listener and who is going to challenge you (in a good way) to dive deeper into career aspirations."

"I’m a digital marketer focused on transitioning from corporate to a high-impact startup role where I’m compensated for the real value I drive, with over five years of experience managing large-scale growth and performance programs. When I signed up for coaching, my biggest challenge was figuring out how to truly stand out with my resume, build meaningful relationships through networking, and clearly identify what a genuinely great opportunity looked like so I could commit to it fully instead of second-guessing myself. At 27, I knew I deserved more and didn’t want to stay in my role forever—I felt strongly that I needed a strategic pivot to put my career on the right long-term path, but in a tough job market I wasn’t confident I knew what actually worked, so I invested in Cultivated Culture for the accountability, structure, and guidance of experts who had successfully helped hundreds of people do exactly what I was trying to do. The most valuable part of the coaching for me was learning that networking is ultimately the foundation of any strong career and that it needs to be an ongoing, intentional practice, not something you only turn on when you’re actively job hunting."

"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."

"Cultivated Culture has been an essential part of my job search journey. Their thorough approach, combined with my coach's compassionate and encouraging nature, has provided me with the guidance and confidence I needed to navigate the job market. My coach consistently offers insightful suggestions and invaluable advice, ensuring that every version of my VVP is top-notch and capable of impressing any employer. His dedication to my success is evident in the countless hours he has spent reviewing my materials and our extensive email exchanges, where he always offers thoughtful feedback and support. Cultivated Culture as a whole is an incredible investment. They continuously enhance their resources to support job seekers more effectively. The transition from biweekly to weekly VIP live coaching sessions has been transformative, providing timely and relevant advice. The newly introduced Knowledge Base is an excellent resource for finding perfect articles to tackle any job search roadblock. Additionally, their playbook, filled with useful templates, has been incredibly helpful. Investing in yourself is the best decision you can make, and Cultivated Culture ensures you get the most out of it. If you'd like to chat live about my experience, please message me. I'm happy to share more about my journey the entire Cultivated Culture team!"

"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."
