Ready for a more fulfilling career? Let's chat! 🚀 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 🚀 As a Career Coach, I am passing along my tricks of the trade and to help job seekers find more fulfilling careers that align with their gifts. ✅ 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆: assess where your likes, dislikes, priorities, skills, & experience align w/ current market opportunities and charting a path forward. ✅ 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻 & 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: create a Recruiter, ATS & AI friendly online presence to 10x your interview opportunities. ✅ 𝗝𝗼𝗯 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆: how to stand out in a crowded job market, manage your time effectively and effectively position yourself for the job you want. ✅ 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: parse out the key accomplishments and situations to highlight during interviews, create a 'story bank' to match them w/ key requirements for target role, and conduct mock interviews to ensure you’re ready to go (practice makes perfect). ✅ 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘁: identify limiting beliefs (imposter syndrome, etc) that might be holding you back, help you maintain confidence, motivation, and focus during your job search. ✅ 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗡𝗲𝗴𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: if & when you reach the offer stage, assistance w/ negotiation, and available for on-demand support, questions, etc throughout the process. -------------- 🚀 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 🚀 Are you a SaaS startup or professional services firm looking to do one of the following? ✓ Hire for challenging, industry specific roles that require specialized headhunting and proactive outreach ✓ Hire urgently and quickly or make a large hiring push ✓ Add flexible support to supplement your internal recruiting team ✓ Build a long term recruitment strategy and HR organization aligned w/ industry best practices Then look no further for the spark you need to take your business to the next level! I am a highly specialized Headhunter w/ a proven track record of excellence throughout my 10+ year career and over the past 6+ years as a full time independent recruiter and business owner of LionsEye Recruiting. I specialize in the following industries: SaaS / Technology, Professional Services & Consulting (including Big 4), Managed Services, HR Tech, DevOps, Web3 / Blockchain, Cybersecurity, GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance), Banking & Financial Services, eCommerce, BioTech and Healthcare. Primarily, I recruit for the following roles: 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 Roles: Account Executives (Enterprise & Commercial), BDRs, Sales Engineers, Sales Managers, & VPs of Sales / Chief Revenue Officers. Focus Areas: My clients are typically looking for 'Hunters' whose primary focus is generating net new business. Many times (but not always), these are new territories, new products or new sales teams all together. Great sales reps are NOT on the job boards, so they must be strategically targeted through proactive outreach and building a strong network overtime. 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 Roles: Marketing Managers, Demand Generation Managers, SEO Specialists, Content Marketers Copywriters & Graphic Designers. Focus Areas: Primarily, I recruit for metrics driven Marketers with a track record for driving revenue and folks w/ a strong background in Account Based Marketing (ABM).

𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 Roles: Software Engineers (Frontend, Backend & Full Stack), Mobile Developers (iOS, Android), Solution Architects, DevOps Engineers, Cloud Architects, Software Engineering Managers. Focus Areas: My clients often need highly autonomous tech talent, folks who are accustomed owning development from start to finish, which requires a vastly different mindset and skill set than someone working in a siloed role w/ a larger company. Along with this, I’ve spent 6+ years building a network of “the unicorns” of the tech world… folks who are excellent communicators w/ a strong understanding of the business to match their technical expertise. Other experience includes: - Customer Success / Customer Service - Admin - Operations - Finance How I Work w/ Clients: Step 1) Conduct a detailed onboarding call w/ your hiring managers to understand current recruitment strategy, hiring needs, company culture, value proposition, differentiators, etc Step 2) Source candidates using the following methods - Proactive sourcing via LinkedIn (premium Recruiter Seat), Github, Wellfound, Loxo (AI based sourcing) & Wiza. - Job Postings - Leveraging my extensive personal network built over 6+ years recruiting sales, marketing, & tech professionals Step 3) Coordinate w/ hiring manager(s) throughout the process, implementing when needed feedback, updating candidates, coordinating logistics and ensuring candidate pipeline is healthy until offer is signed. I look forward to working with you!
