‘‘Before I found this program, my search was frustrating.
I was sending out applications that disappeared into black holes, recruiters weren’t reaching out, and when I did get an interview, I often walked away feeling like I hadn’t shown my real value.’’
-
‘‘I finally had early access to hidden opportunities, direct connections with headhunters, and the confidence to handle tough questions.
Within months, I wasn’t waiting anymore—I was advancing into real conversations.’’

‘‘I knew my search wasn’t working.
Applications disappeared into black holes, recruiters weren’t reaching out, and interviews often felt defensive.
I needed a way to access opportunities earlier, build recruiter visibility, and speak with confidence in high-stakes conversations.
Through the Performance Program—combining Hidden Jobs, the Headhunter Directory, and the Job Talk Navigator—I transformed my approach.
Hidden Jobs provided warm introductions before roles were posted. The Headhunter Directory opened direct lines to top executive recruiters. And with the Job Talk Navigator, I developed clear, authentic answers that turned tough questions into opportunities.’’
Within 10 Weeks
Felipe secured 3 warm introductions into major financial firms, initiated 6 recruiter conversations, scheduled 2 exploratory interviews, and advanced to a finalist round for a CFO role. The process even led to a conference speaking invitation following an interview debrief.
Conversion: From 11 recruiter and early-market conversations, 4 converted into live interview processes—a 35% conversion rate that marked a complete shift from stalled applications to active opportunities.
