"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 Forrest and Austin. 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!"

"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 work in advertising as a marketing manager and account lead. In my job search I struggled to find clarity and had "dream job" ideas but didn't understand how to get there. I was discouraged in my search and felt like I had no one I could ask questions to or depend on.  After some frustrations, I decided to invest in the program. I had followed Austin for years and used some of his strategies in my interviews but never landed an offer.  Working with Adriana was more than a game changer. She was thoughtful, proactive, and extremely experienced. She helped challenge me to do my best. I thought I was a strong interviewer, she helped me identify blind spots and win multiple offers! I would recommend her and this program to anyone who feels stuck. "

"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, Forrest, 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 and Forrest to anyone starting or going through the job search."

"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."

"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 Forrest - 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."
