About Gene

- An insider’s vantage point. With over a decade in data‑driven leadership roles (including roles where I've worked directly with the recruiting team on hiring strategy), I’ve screened thousands of résumés and done hundreds of interviews. I understand exactly how candidates get through filters and how hiring teams weigh skills, narrative, and cultural fit—and I translate that knowledge into clear, actionable guidance for you. - Applying product analytics to the job search. I treat a job search like a growth funnel. Together we diagnose drop‑off points (ATS filters, recruiter screens, technical rounds), run targeted “experiments” to tighten your story, and iterate until we see the metric that matters—offers in hand. - Proven candidate success. From recent grads to senior leaders, I’ve coached dozens of professionals to sharpen their résumés, craft high‑value applications, and stand out in competitive markets. Nothing energizes me more than watching motivated people land their perfect role.
