If you are a leader in your field you deserve an award winning recruiter and job search coach.

Perhaps your resume, networking efforts, digital submissions or executive interview is getting you some interest maybe even an interview, but has not led to an offer? Are you concerned that you are not presenting your best self? Do you want to give the most powerful interview to demonstrate what you can do for the company?

If any of that is a “yes” we’ll create a tailored Executive/Senior Career coaching program just for you. At your level, pursuing this program is just the strategic investment you need to advance your career.

As an executive recruiter with decades of national search experience, I have interviewed hundreds of executives in a wide range of fields and positions. Now as a career coach, I can share the inside scoop with you and uncover what’s stopping you from getting the job you want.

Working with Janet Brumbaugh, M.A.

In my earlier career, I was a teacher. My students were intelligent and still not academically “making
it”. I developed “out of the box” individualized solutions that helped propel them to
success.

Later I transferred that analytic and creative thinking to conducting executive searches for client companies (small to fortune 500) that often struggled to find the “right candidate”.

Partnering with my clients, we tailored solutions that had them rethink and recreate their hiring strategies; allowing them to identify candidates who
would truly make that difference for themselves and their companies.

As a result, I was honored by my client’s loyalty, generating the firm’s top revenue awards in succession, year after year.

Now, I bring my recruiting background to you in the form of a 360 degree view. We’ll hone in on your entire presentation; your executive presence, real time video interviews, resume, LinkedIn, references, email, cover letters, and your digital submissions.

What do we accomplish during our time together?

When I first meet you, we’ll do a deep dive into your background.

You might not have received the offers you deserve due to unknown mistakes you made while networking, on your resume, or during the “dreaded interview.” We’ll discover together what’s in your way and how you can present your powerful executive presence with fun, grace and ease, getting the job you love.

How you present yourself is always the key element, whether in-person, over the internet (e.g., Zoom, Google Meet, or Skype), or on the phone.

Using a holistic approach, I support you with a thorough intake, an unparalleled strengths and assessment of your “blind spots” and match you with the custom career strategy that gets you results; with job search preparation, promotion strategy, executive leadership — keeping your job candidacy relevant and competitive in the multi-channel new world of work.

I’m passionate about you getting the job you want.

Here’s what we’ll work on:

    • How do you control the interview?
    • A deep dive into your background to reveal your purpose, path, and core values
    • What does the company want from you?
    • How will you fit with that company’s culture?
    • Video analysis to uncover new strengths and opportunities to shine
    • Examine the difference between how you see yourself and how an interviewer sees you
    • Edit and critique your resume, cover letters, and digital submissions
    • Develop a social media presence, including LinkedIn, to attract interest and interview requests from recruiters and company leaders
    • Create self-generating network strategies
    • Successful compensation negotiation strategies
    • Networking support and 4 introductions
    • What is your unique contribution?

Preparation for your executive interview

Based on my years as an executive recruiter, I know the hidden things companies are really looking for.  We’ll take an in-depth look at your interviewing style through a series of video sessions where I will take the role of the company interviewer. 

I analyze each interview and we’ll go over what’s working and what isn’t. We’ll examine the difference between how you see yourself and how an interviewer sees you. You’ll get a copy of each video so that you can pinpoint areas for improvement.

Introductions to Open New Doors 

I have a large network of senior-level and executive professionals. To complete our process, I’ll make four personal introductions to people who might be able to help you. I’ll coach you on how to most effectively use these contacts to open doors in your industry or point to a possible new direction.

Are you in a senior role or an executive who is serious about investing in your next step?

"Hi, Janet. I wanted to let you know I accepted a position yesterday as the Communication Director at North Clackamas School District. There were three separate interviews, along with a mock press conference! I used your tactics, and the Executive Director of HR said my interview performance ‘had knocked it out of the park.’ I am filled with gratitude.”

I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with Janet Brumbaugh. Her unique 360 approach to executive career coaching was invaluable and helped me through the challenging process from start to finish. Taking the time to understand my style and personality allowed her to provide practical and meaningful feedback that I could put into action right away. She helped me hone in on the right opportunities, using an approach geared specifically for me, designed to yield the best results. From assistance with my resume and LinkedIn page to coaching me through videotaped mock interviews, Janet is the reason I received multiple offers in a very tight market. I highly recommend Janet for anyone in the executive space looking for their next opportunity! Thank you Janet!!!
