Executive CV and career strategy

Why a standard CV doesn't work for C-level

A CV that reads "2015–2018, sales manager, Acme LLC" works for mid-level roles. For C-level positions, recruiters and owners look for something else: the business results you delivered, how you shaped strategy, and which risks you mitigated.

Common mistakes in executive CVs:

• Describing responsibilities instead of results: "Responsible for developing the department" instead of "Grew the team from 5 to 25 people and tripled the department's revenue"
• No metrics: without numbers, scale is hard to judge
• Poor structure: everything is jumbled together and the key facts can't be found in 30 seconds
• A weakly optimized LinkedIn: your achievements are buried in the text where recruiters never see them

What we do

Phase 1. Positioning strategy. We pinpoint the role where you are strongest, the job market you are targeting, and the companies that interest you. From there, we identify which of your achievements are most relevant.

Phase 2. Rewriting the CV. We rewrite each role in a single format: the situation, what you did, and the result. We add metrics and structure everything so a recruiter sees your value at a glance.

Phase 3. LinkedIn optimization. A professional photo, the right keywords in your headline, and achievements laid out clearly. LinkedIn is your second CV, and recruiters spend a great deal of time there.

Phase 4. Interview preparation. We run 2–3 mock interviews, sharpen your pitch, prepare answers to the toughest questions, and shape your story so it lands with conviction.
