Meet our Team of
Our clients bring a high level of expertise to their respective roles in finance, operations, marketing, HR, leading a company as CEO, etc. Although our clients are highly accomplished in their respective roles, they are typically not experts at the job search process.
The Hired Executive is intentionally designed to ensure that within a condensed period of time, our clients become masters of the eight core areas of the job search process. We bring you a team of elite coaches who are each experts in their respective area. Together, our team empowers you to showcase your talents and skillsets so you can land your next great opportunity.
An analogy we like to use is that of a Rolex watch. The inside of the watch contains roughly 130 individual pieces. Each is machined to perfection. And they all work in unison. If even one part falters, the entire watch stops. Looking for a job is similar in that there are eight critical areas that need to be mastered, and they need to fire on all cylinders. A weak link in any of the eight critical areas can make or break the job search process.
Most programs have either a single coach, or perhaps a couple of coaches, who deliver all of the coaching. However, to obtain the desired result at the executive level, we believe our clients should be served by specialists in their respective fields, as opposed to a generalist.
We are therefore proud to introduce you to The Hired Executive team of coaches and we look forward to helping you land your next great opportunity.
