"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."

"I am early in my career and was navigating a pivot, which made it challenging to clearly position my experience and feel confident in my job search. The guidance I received helped me refine my story, apply more strategically, and approach networking and interviews with clarity. As a result, I started landing interviews that aligned with my goals and ultimately secured a role I was intentionally working toward. The coaching gave me structure, confidence, and direction during a critical point in my career."

"I am a consulting manager in a public accounting firm. I came to Cultivated Culture as I had no luck in blindly applying to jobs. I was wanting to break into corporate finance and switch to an industry role. My coach and Cultivated Culture have been nothing but wonderful to work with! My coach was an exceptional listener and has made this entire process so easy for me. His advice truly made a big difference in my search. Thanks to him and his team, I landed my dream job at Amazon Operations Finance with a pay bump that I am so thrilled about! Thank you!"

"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 my coach, 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."

"I partnered with Cultivated Culture after exhausting a few other coaches and simply having an "aha" moment after connecting the Cultivated Culture team. I didn't initially realize how much I needed a program until I started learning things that I didn't know I needed in today's world of job searching. Working with my coach has given me the confidence to reach out to people blindly to network and has also prepared me for interviewing and anything else that has come my way. Having the modules is especially helpful as I can always go back to them when I need a refresher! Thank you for putting together such an inclusive program that has gotten me up to speed after being out of the loop for some time."

"The biggest change in the job hunt was preparing for tech interviews coming from a management consulting background and “closing” with an upbeat and informative description of past experiences. My coach was an outstanding! He was responsive, attentive and gave me real advice that upped my game and helped get the offer! He also offered great feedback with a tight turnaround in an intensive process. I think he accurately identified areas of improvement to beat out very tough competition for a position with Amazon, representing a life-changing increase in base salary."
