Aatif Lands At Facebook With A Higher Salary

"My name is Aatif and I am a Product Launch Operations Project Manager at Facebook. I wanted to write a quick review for Austin’s Dream Job System (DJS) and how it’s helped me in my job search. A few months ago I was really struggling with my career. I knew I wanted to pivot into Tech, but I lost hope from all the rejections that were coming my way. It seemed like my resume would go into a blackhole when applying online and when I did get an interview - I would struggle conveying my value. I wasn’t sure what to do and that’s when I found Austin. I consulted with Austin & went through his comprehensive course. He helped me learn the ins & outs of how to network, statistically guarantee myself an offer, and build strong relationships. What stood out to me was: the science backed techniques that he shows to build rapport with interviewers, his easy-to-follow system to keep yourself on track to landing multiple offers, and the awesome tools he provides to beat Applicant Tracking System (ATS). After Implementing Austin’s strategies I was able to land the opportunity of a lifetime! "

Mollie Goes From Unemployed To Dream Job At AMEX

"I partnered with Cultivated Culture after exhausting a few other coaches and simply having an "aha" moment after connecting with Austin. 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. This program 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."

Hesitant Interviewer to Interview Expert (Lands Amazon Dream Job)

"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. Forrest from Cultivated Culture was an outstanding Coach! 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."

"Working with Adriana was a game changer. It saved me...Within two months of working with her, I turned my situation around.

The new role I've accepted has amazing benefits, is 100% remote, and has unlimited PTO...Because of Adriana and the team at Cultivated Culture, I now have a career as opposed to a couple of odd jobs on my resume that I landed by luck. I even have a few sessions left over that I plan to use to negotiate a raise or next move, and will be taking advantage of the group calls and email support that the team provides even after landing an opportunity."

Kyle Uses a Targeted Resume to Land Offer at Top Company

"The biggest challenge I was facing was landing interviews for jobs that I was interested in. I didn't understand why I kept being overlooked, so I turned to Cultivated Culture for help. Forrest walked me through my resume and helped me update it to highlight my accomplishments at my prior jobs with defined results. No longer was I just listing out my responsibilities, but rather showing the value that I would bring to the companies that I was applying to. With my updated resume and the tools and resources provided in the program, I received a job offer at my top company!"

Yuping Goes From No Interviews to 2 a Week and Dream Offer

"Before discovering Cultivated Culture, my job search was challenging, and I struggled to secure interviews. Everything changed when I started working with my coach, Adriana.

This personalized approach resulted in me landing at least two interviews a week, ultimately leading to a job offer in June."

Yuping Asst. General Manager

“Voice of Compassion and Accountability Partner”

"One of the biggest challenges for me in job hunting is how overwhelming it all is. I felt so unmotivated. Forrest worked as the perfect accountability buddy. As someone uniquely acquainted with the hiring process, he helped me break down my to-do list in a way that made it more manageable. Together we perfected my resume and LinkedIn and did a mock interview to get me started again. He was also a sanity check and a voice of compassion when I was overthinking outreach and rejections. It helps to have someone who knows what it looks like on the hiring side of things. The most valuable part of coaching was having someone to report to and give me feedback on my outreach emails, resume, interview answers, as well as answer my questions no matter how silly they seemed. I'd absolutely recommend this program."

Unemployed Career Changer Expects Pay Cut But Lands 10% Raise

"Before I found Cultivated Culture, I was unemployed for over a year. I couldn't get a response from any companies, despite submitting hundreds of online applications. Working with my coach Adriana completely changed the game for me. She helped me understand that online applications were only a part of the process and helped me upgrade my LinkedIn profile and taught me how to network effectively while targeting my top choice companies. That led to finally securing some interviews in just over 1 month of the program! With Adriana's help I got an awesome offer for an exciting role in a new industry with a 10% raise! If anyone is having trouble with their current job search, I couldn't recommend this program more!"

Jennifer Product Manager

“Completely Changed the Game for Me”

"Before I found Cultivated Culture, I was very frustrated and unorganized in my job search. I was just applying to roles with no real purpose. I was really struggling with landing a role at a company that I would be excited to work at. Working with my coach Adriana completely changed the game for me. She helped me get organized in my search and was able to provide insightful feedback on common and role-related interview questions. That has led to several informational interviews and a broader knowledge of how to network and leverage technology to my advantage. "

Forrest is 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 Forrest!"

“Refreshing and Effective Approach”

"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 career coach, Forrest, 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."

Cole Business Development

“Creating A Specifically-Tailored Project (VVP)” Was The Key

"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 mentor, Forrest. 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."
