"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."

"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."

"Before discovering Cultivated Culture, I felt stuck in my job search in a challenging job market. Partnering with my coach, Adriana, was transformative. She helped me in crafting a compelling narrative around my career goals, tailoring my resume and LinkedIn profile to resonate with potential employers. Through insightful mock interviews and personalized feedback, she helped me refine my personal brand and develop a clear strategy for my search. Thanks to her guidance, I succeeded in securing a role that perfectly aligns with my aspirations. I am incredibly grateful to Cultivated Culture for their excellent support and expertise. *Monalisa asked us to use an avatar as her headshot*"

"Cultivated Culture was very helpful, I was able to receive a 68% salary increase with their help. I get anxious and lacked confidence, my coach was there for me every step of the way to provide much needed guidance. The methodology really works! If you follow the guidance, results will show, I am proof!"

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

"My biggest challenge when it came to the job search was that I was doing exactly what everyone else was: applying to 100+ applications, waiting to hear back, adjusting my resume constantly, and maybe getting 1 or 2 phone screens a month to positions that didn't even align with my goals and values. I finally decided to pull the trigger and invest in myself and signed up for the CC coaching program.  The most valuable part of the course for me was the consistent support from my coach. He was extremely knowledgeable through every step of the process and had great advice and recommendations as I had to consistently navigate difficulties. There was also a ton of value that I gained from the DJS course as well, especially the VVP. At the end of the day, I really think that going the extra distance and creating a specifically-tailored project to present to the hiring team to address their current challenges or showcase specific skills I have was the final push to get my interview to an offer. Overall, I'm forever indebted to the CC team and wouldn't be where I am today without their help. The course, mentorship, and overall professionalism and expertise is priceless and if you're willing to continue to put in the work, you will be successful and get to where you want (and deserve!) to be."

"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 my coach - 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."

"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."

"I had an excellent experience with Cultivated Culture. After months of traditional job searching, their unique approach was a game-changer - it was refreshing and effective. My coach was incredibly attentive, taking detailed notes and providing insightful feedback that truly elevated my application materials. The CEO, Austin, also went above and beyond. He genuinely cares about all his clients and took the time to help me create a specific plan tailored to my goals. The program was awesome, the people were awesome, and the entire experience was awesome. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new job."
