my résumé worked! I got an offer

“Jared, just wanted to let you know that my résumé worked! I got an offer from [Law Firm Name] this week, and I'll join their Corporate & Securities group with a short track to partnership. At least 2 of 10 partners I met with commented on my impressive résumé. Thanks for helping me find a way to tell my story. I think this is going to be a great position to add to my résumé and I am really excited. Thanks so much for all of your help!”

it's like therapy in a way...this is fun

“Your questions underscore why I need you, Jared. It's like therapy in a way. You're bringing out things I've forgotten, haven't considered as important, or maybe haven't even wanted to acknowledge. I certainly had no idea how to talk about these things, much less put them on paper as a leadership story. This is fun.”

the work we just did is astounding...we were on fire

“The work we just did is astounding, Jared! We were on fire! I can't tell you how excited I am [to realize that] I've actually done a ton in this most recent role. I also hadn't realized how much value I bring to the C-suite and the company as a whole, and I would have *never* thought about creating a through-line across my entire career.”

you're finding a place to put things in my résumé that I've always felt were important

helping me tell my story in a way that is really getting me noticed

“Hi Jared, I've really been hitting the job search hard these last few weeks. I wanted to share a really cool moment with you. I sent my résumé to a long-time biotech exec who works heavily with a couple really great VC firms. He was impressed with the résumé and sent it along to a partner at one of those firms. The partner was immediately impressed and said he could use me right away with a company where he recently replaced the management team. We'll see where it goes but I feel like getting over the hurdle of a résumé was a huge step in the right direction. Not to mention these guys work with some really great lawyers. Thanks for helping me tell my story in a way that is really getting me noticed! (I'm also excited for my husband to work with you!)”

“The JDA is enlightening, Jared. I foolishly waited to do this and now I'm realizing, wow, there's a lot of work in just finding the appropriate job description and roles. It's not like there's fifty of these jobs floating around just because I'm ready to make a move.”
