Coaching Services
Navigating promotion, office politics, salary negotiation, networking, job search, interviews, and career-path discovery can be challenging. There are volumes of information available online, but information without qualified guidance can seem futile. This is where coaching comes in…giving you those thought-provoking prompts, actionable steps to move forward, working alongside you to sharpen your conversations and get the outcomes you want.
As a trained Career Strategy Coach, and 20 years of experience helping (super smart) professionals demonstrate their value… I realized how many people had goals that were seemingly out of reach, and I set a course to change that!
Interview & Salary Negotiation Coaching
Your resume has done its job and you received the call for an interview, but you haven’t interviewed in years or there is simply too much riding on this interview. You need to be confident. You may even have a tricky situation that you need to know how to talk about (got fired, ran your own business, job-hopper history, no degree, etc…). We have all heard the advice to practice interviewing with someone. But be smart about it, if they don’t know what to look for (and they’ve never hired anyone before) will they be able to give you specific, accurate feedback to help you win? Interview coaching with a qualified professional can make all the difference for you and your ability to secure actual job offers.
Interview coaching with Push, like all things, is very practical. We begin by having you send your current resume and job posting that you’d like to prepare for. You’ll provide us with specific areas that you’re struggling with and we’ll come prepared with questions you are likely to encounter. We’ll go through a mock interview and you’ll receive feedback every step of the way. The best part is…you’ll get the call recording afterward so you can practice and simply focus on the coaching vs. trying to take a bunch of notes. You’ll leave with an interview strategy, a real game plan to win with interviewing.
NOTE: I am a Certified Interview & Compensation Negotiation Coach (CICNC) validating my experience and skill. And 100% of my Interview Coaching clients have landed their targeted positions.

Job Search Coaching
The #1 frustration I hear about during a job search (especially for those who haven’t needed to do it in 10+ years) is that they feel uncertain about the process. They are uneasy about networking and they can’t understand why they’re not getting any calls. Having someone in your corner who can help you build a custom search strategy and provide real-time answers to the questions that will undoubtedly come up during your search is invaluable to protecting your sanity.
Job searching is so much more than submitting a bunch of resumes on the Internet and hoping for the best. Job searching has evolved into a complex system requiring a multi-pronged approach, but there is no one-size-fits-all formula so, each individual needs their very own strategy to win, quickly.
I have found that far too many amazing professionals think all they need is a resume, then quickly realize they need a game plan, a new mindset, and accountability. That’s why I introduced coaching into the service offerings.

Career Discovery Coaching
You don’t necessarily know what you want to be when you grow up…you just know that it’s not what you’re doing! All things come into focus and just get easier once you know where you’re headed.
Networking, resume development, your LinkedIn profile all become automatically stronger when you know what you do, who you do it for, your special sauce, and your reason why! All these are your expected outcomes of this type of coaching.
So much frustration stems from not knowing. It’s difficult to introduce yourself in networking situations, your resume may come across as unfocused, and we (your network) can’t make the right introductions and connections for you. Help activate your army of advocates by FIRST knowing what YOU want to do and why.
