Master Self-Promotion to Land High-Paying Roles in a Tough Market

I talk to a lot of senior-level candidates who pre-pandemic, had absolutely zero problems attracting high-paying jobs but are really struggling in the current market.

The job market for high-paying tech roles has certainly shifted since its peak in 2022.

- Companies’ expectation for specialized knowledge and domain experience.

- Competition with a surplus of talent with FAANG names on their Resume.

- Less VC funding causing startups to scale back hiring of growth talent.

- Weaning remote work flexibility with an increased focus on local hiring.

- Phantom job openings, ghosting, and more contract roles.

The market is tougher than ever…

But that also means learning the career and life-changing skill of fearless self-promotion is more important than ever.

Here is how my clients are building the skill of Self-Promotion and landing dream interviews and offers at companies like Google, Amazon, and Meta in 5 easy steps:

💪 Quitting imposter syndrome:

They do the mindset work to, once and for all, ditch the self-doubt and build immense confidence in their existing skillset without the need to take additional training, certificates, or degrees.

💪 Quantifying results:

They use our simple “Value Conversion Framework” to convert their work into quantifiable metrics and results - both on the top-line and the bottom-line of the company.

💪 Engaging in thought leadership:

They learn how to contribute to discussions in their field by confidently commenting on industry trends, writing blogs, or speaking on panels. This builds visibility and authority.

💪 Leverage freelance opportunities:

They close actual and perceived gaps in employment by showcasing freelance work to remove all biases related to career breaks.

💪 Asking network for referrals and advocacy:

They learn how fearlessly ask their network for referrals and advocacy so they can completely bypass the recruiter and land interviews for their dream roles.
