Looking for a job but not sure how to find something that aligns with who you are? Struggling to keep track of all your applications and network connections?

This package includes 4 comprehensive documents that work together to create a seamless, stress-free job search process that is sure to result in a job offer that you can feel confident in.
DOCUMENT 1: Building My Brand
When trying to land your first (or next) career, you're bound to be faced with that dreaded interview question... "Tell me about yourself." Without a solid understanding of who you are and what you bring to the table (AKA your brand), it can be difficult to not only appear confident in interviews, but also ensure that the jobs in which you apply align with you and your brand. This exercise will help you put your brand into words - to help you in your job search process AND make your interviewers love you! This exercise is separated into four sections, each including guided questions to help you uncover your brand piece by piece.
- PART 1: My Values, Interests, and Skills (AKA who I am right now) - This section allows you to reflect on the most important elements that make you who you are - these are essential parts of your brand and can be used to make sure that there's alignment between you and a job.
- PART 2: My Past Experiences - This section allows you to reflect on big moments, stories, experiences, etc. that have shaped you into the person you are today and have possibly created/strengthened your core values, interests, and skills. Incorporating a monumental past experience into your brand/elevator pitch can make you stand out, because no one has experienced life exactly as you have!
- PART 3: My Future Goals - Bringing together your past experiences with your current self can give way to your future goals. This is your space to brainstorm and document your career and/or life goals based on your answers from parts 1 and 2.
- PART 4: My Elevator Pitch - Every section up to this point has prepared you to write your elevator pitch. These are the few sentences that you can use in any interview or job application to instantly stand out and show off your brand. This section includes an example elevator pitch and space to create your own, based on your past, present, and future!
DOCUMENT 2: Networking Tracker
Whether you're actively looking for a job or are just trying to remember all the amazing people you meet in your everyday life, this Networking Tracker takes out the stress out of remembering who you've met and what you've talked about. With its simplistic user interface, you can keep track of everything from the basic details of a person (name, contact info, company) to the more personal elements of your connection (how you met them, the value of your connection, and your connection status). Best of all, the Networking Tracker is a timeless tool - you can continually add to it, but you can also revisit it and find old connections to reconnect with.
DOCUMENT 3: Job Application Tracker
Are you in the process of applying for jobs but feel unorganized trying to keep track of all your applications? The Job Application Tracker provides an easy interface for you to keep all of your application information in one place. There are two sections of the tracker that can be filled out to ensure that you don't forget anything about an application as you move through your job-seeking process!
- SECTION 1: Job Information - This section provides space to enter the name of the company, the job, where it is located, important contacts at the company, and more!
- SECTION 2: Important Dates - This section provides space to take note of any application/acceptance deadlines, as well as the dates you applied, interviewed, and received an offer.
- The end of the tracker includes space for any miscellaneous notes that you want to remember regarding a specific company or job.
DOCUMENT 4: Interview Prep Kit
Do you have an interview coming up? Are you feeling stressed out about it? If so, look no further than the Interview Prep Kit! Designed to help relieve some of the stress and overwhelm that comes with preparing for an interview, this kit includes 4 DOCUMENTS with prompts covering all the bases you'll need to be prepared for your next interview. You'll also receive access to a prep kit tips & resources guide, which includes resources to help you fill out each document & some sample interview questions!
- DOCUMENT 1: About the Company - It's always a good idea to know a little bit about the company you're interviewing with, but the process of researching a company can feel daunting and messy. This document will help you organize your research about the company with which you're interviewing; it includes guided questions about specific elements of the company that you can naturally bring into your interview. Additionally, questions about the specific job for which you're interviewing are included to ensure you understand the responsibilities and qualifications of the role.
- DOCUMENT 2: About You - Understanding the company & job is useless if you don't also understand how you fit in! This document provides questions that will help you connect the company's line of work and job responsibilities to your own skills and interests. P.S. - if you're struggling to understand your interests, passions, and skills, check out some of the other resources in my shop geared toward finding yourself & building your brand!
- DOCUMENT 3: Questions - Before going into the interview, it's a good idea to have some questions prepared. This document allows you to put all of those questions in one space, while also helping you brainstorm strong, unique questions to ask. The second part of this document includes space for you to write down potential questions that the employer could ask YOU - which is equally important to be prepared for!
- DOCUMENT 4: Note-Taking - You'll probably want to take some notes during or right after your interview to make sure you remember the most important points; this document gives you space to do just that and will make your life easier by being included with all your prep work! Say goodbye to digging through all your files and papers trying to find your notes.

DOCUMENT 1: Building My Brand
When trying to land your first (or next) career, you're bound to be faced with that dreaded interview question... "Tell me about yourself." Without a solid understanding of who you are and what you bring to the table (AKA your brand), it can be difficult to not only appear confident in interviews, but also ensure that the jobs in which you apply align with you and your brand. This exercise will help you put your brand into words - to help you in your job search process AND make your interviewers love you! This exercise is separated into four sections, each including guided questions to help you uncover your brand piece by piece.
- PART 1: My Values, Interests, and Skills (AKA who I am right now) - This section allows you to reflect on the most important elements that make you who you are - these are essential parts of your brand and can be used to make sure that there's alignment between you and a job.
- PART 2: My Past Experiences - This section allows you to reflect on big moments, stories, experiences, etc. that have shaped you into the person you are today and have possibly created/strengthened your core values, interests, and skills. Incorporating a monumental past experience into your brand/elevator pitch can make you stand out, because no one has experienced life exactly as you have!
- PART 3: My Future Goals - Bringing together your past experiences with your current self can give way to your future goals. This is your space to brainstorm and document your career and/or life goals based on your answers from parts 1 and 2.
- PART 4: My Elevator Pitch - Every section up to this point has prepared you to write your elevator pitch. These are the few sentences that you can use in any interview or job application to instantly stand out and show off your brand. This section includes an example elevator pitch and space to create your own, based on your past, present, and future!
DOCUMENT 2: Networking Tracker
Whether you're actively looking for a job or are just trying to remember all the amazing people you meet in your everyday life, this Networking Tracker takes out the stress out of remembering who you've met and what you've talked about. With its simplistic user interface, you can keep track of everything from the basic details of a person (name, contact info, company) to the more personal elements of your connection (how you met them, the value of your connection, and your connection status). Best of all, the Networking Tracker is a timeless tool - you can continually add to it, but you can also revisit it and find old connections to reconnect with.
DOCUMENT 3: Job Application Tracker
Are you in the process of applying for jobs but feel unorganized trying to keep track of all your applications? The Job Application Tracker provides an easy interface for you to keep all of your application information in one place. There are two sections of the tracker that can be filled out to ensure that you don't forget anything about an application as you move through your job-seeking process!
- SECTION 1: Job Information - This section provides space to enter the name of the company, the job, where it is located, important contacts at the company, and more!
- SECTION 2: Important Dates - This section provides space to take note of any application/acceptance deadlines, as well as the dates you applied, interviewed, and received an offer.
- The end of the tracker includes space for any miscellaneous notes that you want to remember regarding a specific company or job.
DOCUMENT 4: Interview Prep Kit
Do you have an interview coming up? Are you feeling stressed out about it? If so, look no further than the Interview Prep Kit! Designed to help relieve some of the stress and overwhelm that comes with preparing for an interview, this kit includes 4 DOCUMENTS with prompts covering all the bases you'll need to be prepared for your next interview. You'll also receive access to a prep kit tips & resources guide, which includes resources to help you fill out each document & some sample interview questions!
- DOCUMENT 1: About the Company - It's always a good idea to know a little bit about the company you're interviewing with, but the process of researching a company can feel daunting and messy. This document will help you organize your research about the company with which you're interviewing; it includes guided questions about specific elements of the company that you can naturally bring into your interview. Additionally, questions about the specific job for which you're interviewing are included to ensure you understand the responsibilities and qualifications of the role.
- DOCUMENT 2: About You - Understanding the company & job is useless if you don't also understand how you fit in! This document provides questions that will help you connect the company's line of work and job responsibilities to your own skills and interests. P.S. - if you're struggling to understand your interests, passions, and skills, check out some of the other resources in my shop geared toward finding yourself & building your brand!
- DOCUMENT 3: Questions - Before going into the interview, it's a good idea to have some questions prepared. This document allows you to put all of those questions in one space, while also helping you brainstorm strong, unique questions to ask. The second part of this document includes space for you to write down potential questions that the employer could ask YOU - which is equally important to be prepared for!
- DOCUMENT 4: Note-Taking - You'll probably want to take some notes during or right after your interview to make sure you remember the most important points; this document gives you space to do just that and will make your life easier by being included with all your prep work! Say goodbye to digging through all your files and papers trying to find your notes.
