Erin was able to articulate my work experience and quantify my career results in a resume format that I'm confident will resonate with hiring managers. This is very hard to do for engineers. She's talented and I recommend her.

Erin Wold, brilliant technical resume writer
I worked with Erin Wold on my resume. Erin did a great job on my resume. I had a very long resume full of unnecessary details, same for my LinkedIn profile, and it was too complex to read. Erin was very intelligent, she took couple days to read and understand my resume, she understood technology and wireless, and was able to come back with a resume that is cut in half, easy to read and understand and right to the point. She is brilliant, I thought it will take multiple back and forth to get it done right but it was not the case because she understood it well. Thanks Erin

Super helpful
My consultation with Scott was tremendously valuable in terms of advancing my career. Scott leveraged his extensive knowledge of LinkedIn to help me fine-tune my job search and narrow 100k+ job posts to a few dozen, better suited opportunities. He also helped me craft my profile in order to make me a top hit in recruiters' searches for jobs that would cater to my experience and interests. After my session with Scott, I am confident that I'm in a much better position to land my next great job opportunity.

I owe a lot of my career to The Job Sauce
The Job Sauce helped me navigate transitioning from my first job post-college to a company that's made a huge difference in my life. Their system to land your dream job is tried and true, and I recommend it to any high achievers looking to work in a high impact job.

Helped me land a job, highly recommend
Having been recruited for my first job after college, I was feeling lost in the process of finding the next step in my career. Scott was well prepared and tailored my consultation to give me a strategy for finding companies and jobs that I want and starting conversations with connections at those companies. I was extremely impressed by Scott’s professionalism and ability to teach skills clearly and concisely. I updated my LinkedIn profile based on Scott’s suggestions and re-started my job search using his strategies. When I ended up interviewing for my current job, my employer solely used my LinkedIn rather than a resume to vet me. I'm so glad I had it all optimized and prepared! I would highly recommend speaking with Scott if you’re feeling lost or stuck in finding the types of opportunities that are right for you.

Very bad customer service and response
Very bad customer service and response. I scheduled a call and it got rescheduled, did not hear from the trainer the day of my call. I sent him 2 emails and did not reply for 2 more weeks. By then I had already sent a note through the "contact us" link on the webpage and to date it is time no one has contacted me back! Paid $200 for this service and did not get all that was promised.

Hi Ignacio- Scott here. I'm so sorry that you've had a negative experience with the career strategy call portion of our Resume-LinkedIn upgrade service. Your new resume and LinkedIn profile look great and I hope you agree! The "contact us" link is working properly on our end and I've spoken to the coach who failed to call you at the agreed upon time to address his lack of responsiveness. Please check your LinkedIn InMails for more details on how I propose to remedy this.

Great People, Great Value! Strongly Recommend.
After spending 7 months looking for my next career opportunity and having little luck getting interviews, yet alone an offer, I decided to engage with Scott and The Job Sauce. At first I was fairly skeptical. What could be so different than what the career coach that I had been working with for the past 7 months had offered? My resume was well written, I had cover letters tailored for every job that I applied for, and I had signed up for every possible job notification possible.
As I reflected on my past months of misery, spending over 100 hours researching the numerous articles "how to land your next dream job", writing cover letters and resumes, and submitting applications into the "black hole," I thought, there has to be a better way. Sure, the constant reminder from recruiters that I spoke to stating "the market is saturated with overqualified professionals that are willing to accept much less than your target salary" made me wonder "maybe it is the market and I'll just have to weather the storm until after the election." But I still thought, there has to be something that I can be doing to better my odds. It was my first time in my 20 year career where I wasn't getting the interview and the few I did get, didn't result in an offer. So I decided to enroll in a webinar to hear more about The Job Sauce’s approach.
I distinctly remember when Scott talked about some of the typical approaches and why they don't work, I thought to myself, "damn, that’s exactly what I have been dragging myself through." It was the first time I felt hopeful that there truly was a better way. It wasn't long after the webinar I was having my first session with Scott. He spent a good amount of time understanding what approaches I had been trying and providing expert advice to help me understand why I haven't been as successful as I thought I should have been. We didn't spend a lot of time in areas that were already in good shape, like resume and cover letter writing, instead Scott honed in on the specific areas that he thought would add the most value and get me closer to landing an interview. This was one of many aspects about the service that I appreciated. It was focused on the task at hand, no frills, just a clear actionable route from A to B.
After one short month following the prescriptive process, I soon had a calendar full of informational interviews with top executives of prospect companies that I was introduced to by my top connectors. I could quickly tell there was something truly different about The Job Sauce solution. I was talking to people, having discussion about mutual interest in bettering a situation. No more black hole. Although I was only in the early steps of the interviewing process, I just knew I was going to yield a different result.
After rigorously following the process and meeting with my career coach, and keeping in touch with my top connectors, I received a phone call from one of my top connectors. It was about an opportunity that he was made aware of while consulting with a colleague of his that is a CEO who was looking for a VP of Sales and Marketing. He immediately made the connection and put me in touch with the CEO. Two days later I was invited in for an all day interview with the CEO and President of the company. The next day I was made an offer. I will be starting as the VP of Sales and Marketing in Early October. Not only was I able to find my next dream job, but I was also able to negotiate a higher salary than my original target.
Overall, I must say that the service exceeded my expectations. Not only did it bring a process that yielded results, it did it in a very short period of time. I would definitely recommend The Job Sauce to anybody that is actively pursuing their next career opportunity. Scott and his team have a proven track record of successfully delivering and for me the value I was able to gain by using their service far outweighed the upfront investment.
