I applied cold
“The résumé worked great, Shauna. I applied cold for the GC position through a job posting; I didn't even work with a recruiter. It worked beautifully and it took me five minutes to apply. I've never even received a call for an interview when I've applied for jobs online before. And this time I didn't just get an interview; I got the job.”

your process helped me hone the way in which I marketed myself in interviews and negotiations
“Jared, I am so grateful for all of the hard work you put in to helping me with my resume and LinkedIn. More than just getting documents prepared, your process helped me hone the way in which I marketed myself in interviews and negotiations, and I am so very thankful. Also, let Shauna know the good news and how incredibly helpful her advice was in the negotiation process? After she and I spoke, I countered the firm’s initial offer and they came back with no changes to salary or bonus, just a better (partner) title. Speaking to her about how to present the counteroffer gave me the confidence and tools I needed to make that happen!”
