About - Coach Caroleen

Job seekers are frustrated with applying online and not getting results. I coach how to update your resume and personal brand so you get hired faster.

If you’re feeling stuck in your career or just ready for a different job, you know how frustrating the whole resume and interview process can be. That was me. Overworked. Underpaid. Traveling constantly with nothing to show for it. I was stuck but couldn’t figure a way out of my current career path.

I went from recruiters ignoring me to doubling my salary in 18 months.

I’m a mechanical engineer turned bank analyst turned IT Architect for a top tech company in just the past few years. I navigated my career transitions and negotiated my way to doubling my salary.

As more people heard my successful rebranding story, I kept getting asked to meet for coffee to “pick my brain.” Friends started landing six-figure jobs based off the tips I shared with them. Now I share my process through coaching others. I’ll save you time, money, and effort as I teach you the path to rebrand and get hired faster.

And when I’m not doing the work thing…

I’m playing the violin with my daughter on the piano or planning the next trip with my husband. Several days a week, you’ll find me on the tennis court and most nights before bed, you’ll find me reading another book from the library.

If you’re dying to know more, here are a few things you don’t know about me…

* I read about 100 books a year. Yes, that’s about two books a week. I’m a huge local library supporter and read a mix of actual physical books in addition to the kindle and ebooks. Find me on Goodreads here.

* I love love love flossing. Yes, I really do floss daily.

* I’m a Costco anything and everything person. I get my groceries, piano, car tires, sunglasses, and more from Costco just to name a few things. “Think Costco First!” (Costco’s motto).

* I’m frugal. Like super frugal. My whole thing is about value and price per ounce. My family gets tired of it. It’s the engineer in me that thinks there’s always a better and cheaper way of doing things. That’s also what drives me to help others save time and money during the job search.

* I love jigsaw puzzles. I try to have a 1500 or 2000 piece puzzle in progress at all times.

And if you still want to know more…

You can catch my whole rebranding story on the podcast with Lady Tech Charmers here. I also share more about my rebranding framework on Voice America’s Coding the Future with Dr. Sharon Jones.

It truly takes a village...

My husband, Joe and I founded Agile Pro Tips to share our knowledge with others. You’ll find all of the Coach Caroleen courses and digital products on the Agile Pro Tips website.

I’ve partnered with Content Creator, Maya Renee to ensure that I serve fresh articles and posts to keep you inspired and informed during the job search. Let’s connect on social media!
