Executive Career Coach @ Career Solutions Group

About

I’m a Job Search Strategist and Executive Career Coach with a background in C-suite recruiting at Amazon and years of experience as a headhunter. Over the past decade, I’ve helped more than 1,800 leaders land executive roles at companies like Google, Stripe, Morgan Stanley, Coinbase, BlackRock, Citigroup, and countless others. I’ve reviewed thousands of resumes, sat in countless hiring debriefs, and watched exceptional leaders get passed over simply because they didn’t know how to position themselves. The problem was never their experience. It was the story they were telling. That is why I started coaching. I wanted job seekers to have the same behind-the-scenes insight I had as a recruiter, the kind that actually changes outcomes. A few things that make my approach different: • I work directly with every client. Nothing is outsourced and nothing is cookie cutter • I’m highly responsive and keep you moving with real-time, practical feedback • I stay connected to recruiters every week, so my guidance reflects how hiring works today • My reviews come from real senior executives and C-suite leaders (see recommendations section below) My philosophy is simple. No fluff. No BS. Just recruiter informed strategy that helps you stand out, get noticed, and get hired. I help clients overhaul their resumes and LinkedIn profiles, build targeted outreach strategies that open doors in the hidden job market, sharpen how they communicate their value in interviews, and negotiate offers with confidence. Everything is built around how hiring truly happens. Schedule a consultation now and GET HIRED! www.CareerSolutionsGroup.org chris@careersolutionsgroup.org

Recruiter

Amazon

2021-11 - 2024-3 · 2 yrs 5 mos

As a Recruiter at Amazon, I reviewed thousands of applications and gained firsthand insight into how hiring decisions are made at a top-tier company. I specialized in sourcing, evaluating, and hiring top talent across multiple teams, partnering with hiring managers to build high-performing organizations. Through this experience, I developed a deep understanding of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), resume optimization, LinkedIn search algorithms, interview best practices, and the strategies that make candidates stand out in a competitive job market. I saw firsthand how recruiters find and evaluate talent—and why some job seekers get hired while others don’t. This knowledge became the foundation for Career Solutions Group & Job Search Academy, where I now teach job seekers how to navigate the hiring process with insider strategies that work in the REAL WORLD.

Executive Recruitment Manager

Los Angeles, California, United States

As an Executive Recruitment Manager at Best Buddies International, I led the full-cycle recruitment process for senior leadership roles, identifying and securing top executive talent to drive the organization's mission forward. In this role, I gained a deep understanding of executive hiring, including how leadership candidates are sourced, evaluated, and selected. I worked closely with C-level executives and hiring committees, refining job search strategies from the employer’s perspective. Through this experience, I developed expertise in executive resumes, high-impact LinkedIn positioning, interview performance, and salary negotiation for senior roles. I loved working in the non-profit sector and will always cherish the fact that I was able to have real and tangible impact on other people's lives!
