unsolicited opportunities have started to come my way

“Thank you for challenging me Julie, for really forcing me to articulate what I want, and what I do. It's forced me to be more intentional and deliberate about my career. It has sometimes been painful, but also cathartic. And unsolicited opportunities have started to come my way. I've been asked to apply to be my law school's dean, as well as for several board positions. These opportunities have forced me to further think about what I ultimately want.”

helping me tell my story in a way that is really getting me noticed

“Hi Jared, I've really been hitting the job search hard these last few weeks. I wanted to share a really cool moment with you. I sent my résumé to a long-time biotech exec who works heavily with a couple really great VC firms. He was impressed with the résumé and sent it along to a partner at one of those firms. The partner was immediately impressed and said he could use me right away with a company where he recently replaced the management team. We'll see where it goes but I feel like getting over the hurdle of a résumé was a huge step in the right direction. Not to mention these guys work with some really great lawyers. Thanks for helping me tell my story in a way that is really getting me noticed! (I'm also excited for my husband to work with you!)”

I’m really grateful for the advice you gave me about using the résumé for interview prep, because it really helped me see how my skillset aligns to their needs and to talk about my work better. It was really excellent advice, Shauna.”
