Overview
An experienced, senior-level financial professional was dissatisfied in their current role at their company, struggling to identify if they needed a new employer or career shift, and anxious to regain control of their professional life. After partnering with MTV Coaching, they found the right role at the right place with a significant salary boost.
Challenge
Like many professionals in the post-COVID job market who found themselves misaligned with the culture of their company, our client was extremely dissatisfied in their role following a couple of unsuccessful job transitions. Their unhappiness was negatively impacting their performance to such an extent that they feared their job was at risk. They were eager to find a company with the right work culture that would value their 25 years of sales experience. Even though our client had worked in sales throughout their career, they were struggling to sell their most valuable product – themselves.
Solution
In need of help refining their resume, polishing their interview skills, and navigating their way through an employer and potential career change, our client sought the support of MTV Coaching. They were drawn to what they saw as our high-quality services, “white glove approach” to client support, and our ability to customize our offerings to the client’s needs. They were also encouraged by our open and honest communication style, ability to set clear objectives, and provide a defined roadmap to their job search success. Through our collaborative process, MTV Coaching helped our client beat application tracking system algorithms, rebrand and remarket themselves, and finesse their interview responses.
Results
Our client met their career goal by finding the right role, at the right time, at the right company – receiving an offer 20% higher than they asked for and doubling their salary overall. Based on previous experiences, they felt the time between deciding to leave their job and getting an offer they wanted to accept was dramatically reduced, with their interview requests increasing by 50% and time spent unemployed reduced by 40%. They also felt their return on investment was tenfold, both from a financial perspective and having the peace of mind provided by an experienced guide.
