Start Your Job Search Fresh in the New Year!
JANUARY 9 - MARCH 10, 2023
Are you ready to trade in your year-end job search frustration for some tried and true job-landing strategies?
Solid job search strategies produce results (interviews, leads, valuable networking contacts, and job offers). Repeating the same old ineffective actions we've always used, does not.
And then there's the whole mindset thing... Can you really feel confident as a professional or job candidate when you're not producing results? The rejection emails certainly don't help!
You can only job search alone for so long before the self-esteem, positivity, and energy start to drop...
Don't continue on this path any longer. It's time to overhaul your strategy and receive uplifting, expert guidance... Once you shift your approach, and have the right team on board, you'll experience a job search like never before:
Say goodbye to employer rejection emails...
Say goodbye to reactive, aimless job board scrolling...
Say goodbye to low confidence and feelings of professional inadequacy...
New Year New Career Accelerator Bootcamp is about finally having the insights, strategy, and expert support to be in control of your job search; and having all the answers to the questions holding you back… to reboot your job search and know exactly what to do, when, and how!
"Before joining your Bootcamp, I struggled with certain aspects of my job search and was getting frustrated and needed a fresh start. I really didn’t know what to expect from this program, but it was way better than I ever expected. The lessons learned around branding, LinkedIn, networking, and resume critique have really made a huge difference in resolving my concerns and giving me a new direction and allowing me to refocus on my job search. The combination of the Accelerator membership, boot camp format, weekly topics, live weekly coaching, group dynamics, and unlimited email support from you have proven to be invaluable. Thanks for everything! "

"Before joining the Noelle's Bootcamp Program, I tried a couple approaches to look for a new position. Neither of these approaches were very fruitful. I wanted to be more proactive in my search. Noelle broadened my knowledge of how to search for a job and the necessary steps to be successful. She was super helpful in teaching how to use LinkedIn as well as the importance of branding. In addition, she provided great insight into networking and provided tools to support our networking efforts. The weekly calls were super helpful because we discussed how to implement the weekly topics as well as how to overcome any roadblocks that we were facing."

It's time to choose a better approach.
Instead of wandering aimlessly in your search, and wondering why you aren't landing more interviews or offers, why not make up your mind to make a change for the better. Your search strategy can make or break the amount of time you are stuck in your job search.
Commit to doing it the right way, with expert support, guidance and tactics.
"My confidence has increased, my resume has improved and I finally feel like I am in control of my job search!"

I'm Noelle.
I was where you are...
I've experienced the same struggles you're experiencing in your job search. In fact I once spent OVER A YEAR in a very hopeless job search!
So what changed? How did I get out of my job search funk?
Simply put: I landed a job as an executive recruiter and finally had the insider insight into how hiring works, what hiring managers look for in top talent, and where job seekers make mistakes in the application process. My job as an executive recruiter, recruiting top talent for Fortune 500 companies, taught me a thing or two about the job search. So much so - that after I left recruiting, I was able to land my next job - the job I wanted - in less than a month!
And not only did I land the job... but I was able to navigate an intense interview process, negotiate more money, move into a role that was a promotion, beating out a more-qualified candidate in the process!
So I guess you could say I learned a thing or two from my recruiting experience.
Since then I have gone on to teach thousands of job seekers how to make the move from dead-end job search, to happily employed!
And I want to help you achieve the same results in the new year!
What if, in just a few weeks, you were able to totally revamp your professional brand and experience MUCH more movement in your job search?
How would you feel if you started to receive more interview requests from employers, with each resume you send?
What would it feel like to have more self-confidence going into networking and interview conversations?
This is the entire point of the New Year, New Career Accelerator!
The Time is Now to...
Regain your confidence & boost your job search self esteem
Feel like you're in control of your job search
Overhaul your professional brand online & offline
Increase the amount of job leads, networking contacts & interview opportunities.
Hear what clients have to say...
"The approach Noelle takes is so much more helpful. Rather than spend hours a day looking at job boards, I now target specific companies related to my goals, search for jobs on their site, and/or just contact key people at those companies for a discussion. Both my strategy and the clarity/focus have improved since starting the accelerator."
-Peter, Healthcare Industry
“I worked with Noelle in preparation for a full-scale job hunt – I had been “out of the game” for 4 years and needed a refresher, as I applied to a target position at a Fortune 50 company. Noelle was diligent, understanding and has a level of insight that is unmatched by anybody I have worked with in her industry."
- Matthew, Financial Services Industry
"Noelle’s approach and guidance set me on a career path I would have never dreamt possible, while also giving me the skills to better my resume and career search down the road. Worth every penny!"
-Ruby, Tech Industry
"I have increased my networking contacts and my job leads. I also have more clarity around the direction of my job search. I feel like I am in control of my job search and am taking a more proactive approach. My resume has improved and I am more confident submitting applications. My job search is definitely more organized!"
-Jen, Nonprofit Industry
"Pause your job board scrolling activity and get ready to have a transformative experience with Noelle Gross in her 9 week bootcamp program of intensive career strategy support. Ready for professional redirection but without a proper LinkedIn profile, strategic plan, and outdated resume, I benefitted greatly from the course facilitated by Noelle. I am re-energized in my career transition pursuit with the complete professional branding package she has helped me to develop. The weekly topic of focus format provided information via the Job Search Accelerator website with webinars, lesson plans, templates and downloadable resources. Strategies for career development are presented in a succinct, manageable manner that I immediately implemented to optimize my career move, giving me greater knowledge and confidence in the process. I found the weekly live coaching to the topic of focus very engaging and supportive. It facilitated my accountability in completing coursework, kept the process moving forward, and provided an opportunity to benefit from individual coaching while enjoying nice small group support. Noelle is a knowledgeable, thoughtful, and detail oriented professional career coach. She is a pleasure to work with, is extremely responsive to email, and provided constructive feedback to questions and document development throughout the course. With my newly tailored cover letter, resume, and interview guidance support, I approached an interview feeling well prepared and confident with the professional brand she helped to facilitate. I highly recommend this program and working with Noelle Gross."

"The Career Accelerator Bootcamp was just the solution to bring me up to speed and give me the confidence to not only have the tools for the challenges of the job search but also the ability to take my skills and smoothly transition into another industry. The weekly format which included a Zoom meeting each Wednesday was ideal. The lessons were easy to access and follow. Many of the lessons included invaluable templates. The group dynamic was perfect as it gave me the added benefit of hearing and learning from other job seekers. Noelle’s orchestration of the group kept everyone engaged while she was addressing each our individual needs. Her insight to the job search platform is the real jewel in this program. Before this Career Accelerator I had a subpar LinkedIn page, wrong approach job plan and no resume. Nine weeks later I have all the tools and more importantly the knowledge and confidence to successfully find my dream job."
