Laid Off, Underemployed for 3 Years, Regained Employment
Will had been out of the white-collar industry for three years, having been laid off from his technology consultant job and working clerical jobs at a medical office. None of his job applications worked. We created "WC Consulting" to present his underemployment period—including learning experiences, volunteer work, and side projects—giving him 3 years of keyword credit for the ATS. In 2 months, he had 17 interviews and an offer. He's now our biggest fan and messages monthly to tell us.

Recent Master's Grad, Underemployed for 5-7 Years
Garon had worked administrative data management jobs for 7 years since undergrad. After completing his Master's in cybersecurity, he couldn't get a single interview. Using a creative resume approach that consolidated his consulting, studying, certifications, and side projects into one position, we gave him 5 years of ATS "credit" for relevant keywords. In 2.5 months, he secured 9 interviews and showed his passion—landing an offer.

Immigrant Senior Leader Cracks the American Interview System
This client was invited from a country in southeast Asia to work at a Fortune 250 company as a Director on a green card, but faced an impending layoff. He was getting interviews but kept getting bounced at the last round. Over 9 months and 2,000 applications, our system generated 58 interviews—but he struggled with American interview dynamics. At $250/month, we were losing money, yet Alex invested an additional $1,000 in interview coaching. He finally cracked the code, passed the last round, and landed an offer at $180K.

Long-Term Unemployed → Job in 1 Month
Lindsay had been unemployed for a full year, applying to 50 jobs per week with no results. Her resume was responsibilities-focused instead of achievements-focused. Alex thoroughly rewrote it and uploaded it to LinkedIn. Her profile started getting InMails from recruiters due to SEO improvements—plus the 500 weekly emails we sent drove traffic to her profile, boosting her in LinkedIn's algorithm. She landed a job in December.

Early 50s Facing Ageism, Leader in Her Field
Incredible credentials—every relevant certification plus an MBA—but poor at advocating for herself. She'd never held a formal leadership role, always Senior IC. Alex reworked her resume into 4 versions: IC→Niche, IC→General, Director→Niche, Director→General. After 51 interviews and 1,500 apps, she found a 10/10 fit. Alex helped push the company to offer stage by notifying them of another pending offer—they made an offer 24 hours later.

Senior Executive Facing Ageism at 62
Highly competent but niche in specific equipment manufacturing. Ready to retire because he couldn't find a job. Had already worked with another reverse recruiter without success. Alex reworked his resume to be achievement-focused. 200 apps, 3 interviews including 1 via LinkedIn InMail. He nailed one and got the offer.
