Frequent Questions and Concerns
FAQs
How is this different from other career coaching programs?
Unlike traditional career coaching, this program doesn’t just help you land a job; it teaches you how to attract career opportunities and be recognized as an authority in your tech specialty.
This approach focuses on career management and visibility in your field, often leading to a fulfilling job within an average of 3.4 months. You'll gain traction so opportunities like future roles, speaking engagements, and co-authoring articles will naturally come your way.
What if I don’t have a strong background in the tech industry?
You don’t need years of tech experience to succeed. I transitioned into tech from teaching, and many of my clients come from non-traditional backgrounds.
This program focuses on how to position your existing skills to stand out, no matter your background. Tech companies value diverse experiences when framed correctly, and I’ll show you exactly how to do that.
Do I need to be in a specific role or level (entry, mid, senior) to benefit?
Whether you’re breaking into tech, aiming for mid-level roles, or targeting senior positions, the strategies I teach are designed to elevate your personal brand and attract the right opportunities.
The focus is on making you the obvious choice for the roles you’re aiming for, regardless of your current level.
Will this work if I’m not targeting MAANG companies?
Absolutely. While many of my clients land roles at Google, Meta, OpenAI and other big names, the strategies I teach apply to startups, mid-sized companies, and fast-growing tech firms as well.
It’s about positioning yourself as a valuable candidate in any competitive environment, not just at MAANG.
What kind of time commitment does this program require?
The program is designed to be actionable and efficient. You’ll spend at least 4-5 hours a week between live workshops and applying the strategies, but everything is structured to maximize results without overwhelming your schedule.
Plus, the techniques you learn will continue paying off long after the program ends.
What happens if I don’t get results?
While I can’t guarantee specific opportunities, I can guarantee that you’ll leave the program with a powerful personal brand, insider strategies, and a proven framework that will transform how you approach your career.
87% of my clients have landed multiple offers within weeks, and the same is possible for you with consistent effort.
The program starts on March 3, but I am actively looking for work right now. Can I get a head start so I don't waste time?
Absolutely! As soon as you sign up, you'll gain immediate access to the Career Alchemy Collective, a dynamic community of career-driven professionals.
You'll benefit from regular accountability check-ins and online courses designed to give you a running start before the official program begins.
I'm actively engaged in the group, offering personalized, asynchronous guidance to support your journey as soon as you reserve your spot.
The cohort is only 4 weeks. Will I get support from you after the cohort finishes?
Yes. You'll have access to the community for one year after the cohort ends, where I provide ongoing guidance, resources, and support to help you navigate your career journey.
Concerns
“I’ve already tried applying and networking, and nothing’s worked.”
That’s exactly why this program exists. Traditional job applications and surface-level, general networking don’t work in today’s tech market.
I’ll show you how to stop relying on outdated methods and instead leverage insider techniques, like back-channeling and strategic positioning, that flip the script and bring opportunities to you.
“I can’t afford this right now.”
I understand budget concerns, which is why I’m offering this as a beta program at an introductory rate.
This is a rare opportunity to access premium strategies at a fraction of the usual cost. Plus, the salary increases my clients have seen, often $25k+, more than pay for the investment in yourself.
“I’m too busy to commit to a program like this.”
I designed this program with busy professionals in mind. The strategies are efficient, and you’ll learn how to save time by cutting out ineffective job search tactics.
Plus, once you master these techniques, you’ll never waste time job hunting again as you'll know how to bring opportunities to you.
“I’m not sure this will work in the current job market.”
The job market is competitive, but that’s exactly why you need to stand out. Even in tough markets, companies are hiring, but they’re selective.
I’ll teach you how to position yourself as the must-hire candidate, so you’re the one they choose when making those few offers.
“I’ve heard about personal branding before, but is this really necessary?”
Personal branding isn’t just a buzzword; it’s how you control how companies perceive your value. It’s the difference between being any other generic professional and being the candidate leaders fight for.
This program goes beyond basic branding and dives into specific strategies that signal competence and leadership in ways that resonate with top tech companies.
“I’ve never heard of you before, how do I know this is legit?”
I’ve helped hundreds of professionals land roles at large and small tech companies. I’ve walked this path myself transitioning from teaching into big tech roles at Google, Meta, Uber, DoorDash, and a fast-growing startup, Calibrate.
My story was recently featured in Business Insider, and I’m committed to helping you achieve the same level of career success.
