Your Experience Should Open Doors. Here's Why It Isn't.
Most career advice tells you what to fix. The Positioning Gap shows you what's actually happening — a written diagnostic that reveals exactly how your experience is landing with today's market, built from your real materials, with the specific moves to close the gap.
You have the track record. The results. The experience that should speak for itself.But something's off. Fewer interviews than you'd expect. Offers coming in below your level. Late-round losses that don't add up.This isn't a qualifications problem. It's a translation problem.Somewhere between your resume, your LinkedIn profile, and how you're showing up in the process, the signal is breaking down. The market isn't reading you the way you've actually performed.
The Positioning Gap shows you precisely where.Not coaching. Not a worksheet. A clear, structured outside read on how your experience is landing right now — built directly from your actual resume and LinkedIn profile.
How it Works:
1. Book and complete a short intake.
2. Your brief arrives in 3–5 business days.
3. Update your materials and get your follow-up read.
Then we check the work.
Implement the recommendations, send your updated resume and LinkedIn within 30 days, and you get a second brief showing exactly what changed.
