GIVE ME THE PREMIUM TREATMENT

Bring the same level of strategy and leadership into your job search that you do into your job.

IT'S TIME TO STOP FEELING LIKE YOU'RE AT THE WHIM OF THE MARKET.
My job search strategies come straight out of 14+ years of feedback from hiring teams and my experience working side-by-side with industry leaders as they pursue their searches.


I’ve sat alongside executives at companies like Zapier, Snap, and Spot AI. I’ve built hiring processes for countless startups. And I’ve had the unfortunate job of rejecting thousands of talented applicants in my career.


I leverage my tech and SaaS industry expertise and your job search goals to develop the laser-focused strategy to target, market, and prep you to land that next-level role you want, faster and with whole lot of confidence.

How would it feel to have an expert partner in your search? 

Someone who understands how to leverage the projects you’ve owned, the teams you’ve built, and the products you’ve influenced to help you get in front of hiring teams you want to work with and land a role you can truly feel proud of?

You’re in good company.

I’ve helped high-achieving tech leaders land career-defining roles at…

Hear from real people I’ve helped land at jobs they didn’t even believe they could get.

Don’t just take my word for it.

Maria, Director of Product Marketing





Where have you been all my life? What an enviable skill you have to be able to listen keenly and dig beneath the surface.




Not only did I get better prepared to look for the right job, but then I think the emotional support and encouragement from you has been invaluable.

Kim, VP Business development



I hired you because I knew I wanted an expert. What I was doing before wasn't working.  You helped me avoid pitfalls and present myself for a higher level. I'm confident I would not have gotten those 2 offers if I hadn't worked with you.

Avimaan, Director of Product 



I was worried I would have to move down in level to find the role I wanted, but I stayed at-level. I was able to get a 25% increase in base compensation and a sign-on bonus in a new role! 


Since 2020, I’ve been applying all that insider knowledge, those thousands of hours I’d clocked reading resumes, interviewing candidates, and collaborating with hiring teams to figure out what they really need to help you figure out how to be the best person for the roles that are best for you.

I'm Erika

Your Job Search Strategist

BEFORE WE START collaborating ON YOUR JOB SEARCH…

So I switched teams.

After spending more than a decade hiring Engineering Directors, Product Managers, Marketing Leaders, HR, Support, and pretty much any other position that makes a startup team function, I got tired of hearing the same predictable candidate feedback. “They’re missing this.” “I wanted to see more that.” “They’re close, but they’re not quite the right fit for this role because…”

This was feedback that’s impossible to articulate in a sentence or two in a rejection email.
