“My résumé/career advice sessions with Jared, and my career advice sessions with Shauna, were very helpful in my being hired as general counsel for [global bank].”
- Global bank GC
Read More“The résumé worked great, Shauna. I applied cold for the GC position through a job posting; I didn't even work with a recruiter. It worked beautifully and it took me five minutes to apply. I've never even received a call for an interview when I've applied for jobs online before. And this time I didn't just get an interview; I got the job.”

- Chief Privacy Officer for digital product company
Read More“Shauna, you set my career set up for launch! You helped me realize that I need to know what I want, helped me understand the distinction between a legal specialist and generalist -- and that I'm a generalist. Since we talked, I had the opportunity to grow my team and it's been really cool. Now I've just accepted an opportunity reporting directly to the GC of [NYSE-listed cloud computing company]. The first thing the GC said to me at my interview was, 'OMG, your résumé was amazing. I've seen so many résumés, but yours does a great job of showing impact, not only individually but also as a team. Usually I have to work hard to tease it out, but yours just jumped out.' I also want to mention your tip about using our networks to get past HR was really important. HR wasn't interested in me. But my contact got my résumé in front of the GC and an hour later I call the call to interview. Shauna, you are a genius.”

I did get some challenging questions, but was able to stay calm and used it as an opportunity to evaluate the companies and whether I would want to work for them. I’m very happy to let you know I’ve received verbal offers from both companies this week. You helped me change my mindset and attitude about interviewing and I’m so grateful for your help! And you really gave me the boost of confidence I needed to get over my nerves. Thank you so so much!!”
