SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: My conversations with clients and with people inquiring about my services have made it clear to me that people are hurting right now. Life sciences professionals have had a rough go of it lately, and now federal workers and those affected by funding freezes are also hurting. Due to these factors, I have discounted my self-study course, Career Accelerator Toolkit: 4 Steps to Boost Your Career and Land Your Next Job Faster, to only $200 (discount code: CAT200).

The Toolkit contains videos, handouts, guidance from me on how to use the handouts, two workbooks (one 25 pages, one almost 50 pages), and sample resumes and cover letters from real clients (used with their permission and anonymized) that worked. Some of them are annotated, or I call out specific strategies I used in them. The examples include a young STEM professional (recent college grad), a PhD-level scientist, a professor/higher ed administrator, a teacher, and a sales professional.

The Toolkit also includes a monthly group meeting (office hours style), during which time I also teach a brief lesson. If demand gets to the point where biweekly meetings make sense, I will add that.

The discounted fee is equivalent to one hour of consulting with me; it would take me 20+ hours to cover all the material in it in a 1:1 setting.

Please feel free to share with family, friends, or colleagues. Please take care, and be well.
