Earning a $130,000/Year Fully Remote Engineering Job at Only 23 Years Old

Chloe came to the US planning to quickly find work as a software engineer, only to spend months searching with very few interviews, 0 offers, and growing more stressed the entire time. When she finally decided to work with me, she was seriously doubting whether getting a role in the US would ever happen for her.

We:

Reviewed her entire career in detail finding every unique accomplishment, highlight, and result that showed what makes her special
Planned powerful reasons for coming to the US and working in tech
Completely rewrote her LinkedIn, Resume, and every cover letter based on what's statistically proven to get the most interviews
Planned every networking message she sent to people at all her target companies so she made a great first impression
Role played every part of every interview from the small talk at the beginning to the questions Chloe asked to make sure she connected with the interviewer, showed her unique value, and stood out from all the other candidates

The Result?

Less than 2 months after starting my program, Chloe accepted a fully remote, $100K+/year job at a fast-growing tech startup in Chicago.

She now absolutely loves her new job, gets to travel all over the US, and can't imagine ever going back to the long subway commutes she had while in Seoul.

So happy for you, Chloe. Awesome work! :)

From Burnt Out Intern to International Master's Student in Sweden

When Dong Hoon and I first met, he was stuck at an unfulfilling internship in Seoul.

He wanted more than anything to live in Sweden.

However, he had struggled to even get an interview on his own and wasn’t sure if his dream was even possible.

We:

Found all of his unique selling points
Completely redid his LinkedIn profile, resume, and cover letters
Networked with professionals all over Sweden
Worked together A to Z through the entire application process

As a result, he got accepted to the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.

One of the top 50 universities in the world for engineering.

No more:

❌ 빨리 빨리 culture

❌ long workdays

❌ pressure from society

....EVER again.

Couldn't be happier for you, Dong Hoon. You did it!

Head of Sales for a Multi-Million Dollar Business Unit

When Sunpil reached out, he wasn't urgently job searching. However, he knew that when the right opportunity came he needed to be ready.

We reviewed his entire 20+ year career to find anything and everything he could share with global hiring teams.

We put together a resume that was so effective, companies started reaching out to him with interview opportunities.

When the right opportunity came, we role-played each interview exactly like the real thing.

He's in charge of a massive business unit (twice as big as his previous role), is earning a much higher salary, and feels excited about all the global growth opportunities MERCK will offer.

Massive congrats, Sunpil! You're an incredible business leader and 100% deserve this opportunity.

Making a Successful Career Pivot into a Top International Tech Company

When Yujin and I met, she was hoping pivot back into the tech industry and had just applied for a SCM role at one of her dream companies.

However, she had several English job interviews earlier that year that didn't go well. She was experiencing a lot of self doubt and wasn't sure what she needed to do to stand out to the international hiring team.

We worked together through her entire interview process:

We organized all the stories she could share from her career
We worked on her speaking style/delivery so she could show her passion and wasn't just 'reading a script'
We planned insightful questions she could ask
We role played every interview exactly like the real thing so she was 100% ready

In the end, earned the job she was dreaming of and LOVES it.

She also now knows how to sell herself and make a great impression in every interview she'll have for the rest of her career.

It was such an honor working with you, Yujin! Massive congratulations on all your success :)

She never misses dinner with her family
She can take time off whenever she wants
She can attend all her son's school functions
She's earning a higher salary and doing work she truly enjoys

All your success is totally deserved, Jiyoung!

From Nervous in Basic Conversations to Presenting to Global Leaders

Mason reached out when he was having trouble in his English work meetings.

Since joining my business English excellence program,

We’ve fixed 100s of his speaking mistakes
He’s learned the key differences between Korean and Western business cultures
He's given multiple successful presentations to senior-level leaders of multi-billion dollar client companies

Not only has his English and meeting performance gotten noticeably better in just a few months, he now feels MUCH more confident about the future of his career.

Awesome work, Mason! Be proud of all your great progress :).

Abroad for the First Time Ever - Finding Her Dream Job in London

Yona had spent her entire life in Korea and dreamed of taking her career abroad.

However, she had never job searched internationally and was having a lot of trouble. Especially in English interviews.

Other academies made big promises to help her, but the advice was way too general, and not getting her any closer to her goal.

Working with me FINALLY got her the help she needed. She now has an incredible new job in London where she:
- Never has to stay late at the office
- Has a much better work-life balance with plenty of time to relax/have fun
- Loves being in a totally new culture/country
- Is gaining global experience that can help her for the rest of her career
- Feel truly proud of everything she's accomplished

Fantastic work, Yona! :)

She gave a fantastic case study presentation. She showed all the incredible value she could add to McKinsey & Company.

She earned the job offer.

So happy for you, Heejin. Congratulations! :)
