The JobWhiz Process

A proven approach, personally tailored

Foundation & Research

Accelerating senior executive careers starts with a baseline. Comprehensive one-on-one consultation establishes the focus, project scope, priorities and goals.

Skills & Passions

I assess your skills and desires, as well as your restraints and constraints, to find your “sweet spot.” This allows us to focus on getting you where you want to be on your terms in a realistic context. You deserve to be in the right role where you are appreciated for who you are and what you do. Together, we’ll start by figuring out exactly what this looks like.

Positioning

I help structure your qualifications to be the first choice, go-to expert who commands respect and attracts employer interest for all the right reasons. This enables us to locate and make scarce and unadvertised opportunities accessible to you.

SWOT Analysis

People talk about penetrating the hidden job market. JobWhiz eliminates barriers and leaps over obstacles that impede job search success. I strategically anticipate challenges from the start that can hinder progress, remove threats by devising how to differentiate you from the competition and establish your qualifications as superior, beyond the employer’s expectations. Together, we meticulously design that ultra-important, first positive impression that makes you hard to forget.

Go To Market

Laser-focused opportunity targeting and one-to-one, live outreach to influential decision-makers.

Opportunity Matching

By targeting the niche opportunity where you’re most needed, your market value soars. We produce you as the perfect match whom employers can’t resist by aligning your strengths, skills, experience, and knowledge with the needs, requirements, and priorities of the hiring decision-maker who owns the challenge. We demonstrate that you can be relied upon to deliver and avoid mistakes. This approach is the most direct path to landing the opportunity you want without hitting dead ends or making wasteful detours along the way.

Career Attraction & Coaching

Employers are extremely risk-averse. I’ll correctly position you to highlight your trustworthiness and maximize your background credentials to attract your ideal opportunities. Everything—your online persona, elevator pitch, affiliations, resume, and LinkedIn profile—must consistently be on message and foster confidence in you. For every target opportunity, we’ll customize communications to ensure you always present yourself as the perfect solution.

Key Contacts & Opportunity Targeting

Identifying the appropriate hiring authorities, determining how to attract decision-makers, gaining prominence among individuals who will sponsor you for the role you want are as important as credentials. Many senior-level executive roles are not advertised; talent is recruited by word of mouth within the hiring manager’s inner circle. It’s not what you know or who you know, but who knows and likes you.

A top talent rarely finds an ideal, ready-made role. They want to refine their responsibilities and influence their authority. It’s necessary to establish the right contacts to find potential opportunities fitting a job seeker’s needs. I combine extensive job search experience, sophisticated research, sheer persistence, networking finesse and strong negotiation skills backed by effective communications to discover and qualify roles matching your expectations.

High-Level Introductions & Expanded Connections

You don’t have to worry about cold calling or meeting strangers. JobWhiz is your loyal representative and frequently makes first contacts so you don’t have to. I unearth rare, unadvertised opportunities in the hidden job market that are unusually difficult to find. I start a meaningful conversation with the right individuals to promote you as the one person with the right answers. My goal is to arrange one-on-one meetings for you with influential, powerful decision-makers who can hire you, connect you to more valuable connections, and offer you the job you want. With time, these hand-picked relationships become your “job security,” a long-term reservoir of premier leads to future opportunities.

Follow Through

Capitalizing on the opportunities.

Dazzling the Decision Makers

At this point, you have a winning campaign strategy, are aware of your most in-demand strengths, and know what to watch out for. You are able to leave a lasting, remarkable, memorable impression to jumpstart your next career move. We’ve connected you with the right influencers who are eager to greet you. The doors have been opened to welcome you and gatekeepers eliminated—now you need only to walk through and be yourself!

Achieving the Goal

Following-up can feel uncomfortable. That’s why, as your representative, I complete every dialogue with every contact and don’t stop before there is an actionable outcome such as meetings with decision-makers, job offers, and referrals to explore additional opportunities.
