If your executive job search feels way harder than it should be, you’re not imagining it.

  • Massive layoffs have flooded the market with VP, SVP, and C-suite talent.

  • The average executive job search is stretching to 6–12 months, even for strong candidates.

  • Many companies are quietly freezing hiring while they “reassess” 2025 budgets.

  • Recruiters are juggling hundreds of qualified profiles for a single role.

  • Roles are being restructured or downgraded mid-search to save cost.

  • Internal candidates and “favorites” often get priority before roles are ever posted.

  • AI and filters are screening out candidates before a human ever sees their profile.

The result?

  • You feel overqualified and under-considered.

  • You’re doing “all the right things” and still getting silence.

  • You’re starting to question your value… instead of your strategy.


In my upcoming Executive Job Search Success session, I’ll walk through:

  • Why the current market feels “rigged” for executives (and what’s actually happening behind the scenes).

  • The 3 biggest mistakes executives make when they try to “DIY” their job search.

  • How to shorten a long search by changing your go-to-market, not just your résumé.

  • Where real executive roles are being decided (hint: it’s not the public posting).

  • How to reposition yourself as a solution to market turbulence, not a cost center.

  • What a realistic 60-day action plan looks like in this environment.

  • How to protect the rest of your career, not just your next offer.

👉 If you want a strategy that matches the market you’re actually in, not the one you remember, this session is for you.
