Land interviews faster.

Getting in front of decision-makers shouldn't take 200 cold applications and a prayer.

We use LinkedIn Sales Navigator to find the actual hiring managers for the roles you want, reach out on your behalf, tailor your resume, and apply to 50+ roles a week. You just show up for interviews.

We guarantee the execution — flat fee, decision-maker outreach every week, on your behalf. You show up for interviews. We do everything else.

You're not the problem. The system is.

Let's be real — job searching right now is soul-crushing. You tailor each resume. You rewrite the same cover letter. You refresh your inbox hoping for literally anything. And most of the time? Nothing.

You don't have 80 hours a month to fight algorithms. We do.

It takes 60-80 hours a month to apply properly. If you have a job, you can't do this. If you don't, you burn out. We operate at industrial scale, every week, so you don't have to.

Applying alone means doing five jobs at once. We take four off your plate.

Solo, you're finding the decision-maker, tailoring the pitch, sending the outreach, following up, and tracking every response — all yourself. We handle all of that as your authorized representative, so the only job left on your plate is the interview itself.

75% of resumes? Never seen by a human. We fix that.

Our ATS optimization and direct outreach ensure you bypass the digital trash can and land in front of a real person.

Our Origin

Built by Industry Insiders

We didn't start Career Representation™ by guessing what works. Our foundation was forged inside the IT and Cybersecurity placement pipelines of one of Silicon Valley's largest tech career accelerators. Operating directly under the founders at Pathrise, we were part of the backend execution network that built pipelines, ran proxy networking, and drove high-level placements.

But as the traditional Income Share Agreement (ISA) model collapsed under its own weight, we realized the backend execution was the only part that actually mattered. We left to build SBM. We're not here to give you more advice — you've had enough advice. We're here to do the actual grunt work: applications, outreach, follow-ups, so you can just focus on showing up and closing the deal.

Why Career Representation Exists

For years, our team acted as the execution engine behind massive career tech platforms — we did the heavy lifting on applications and outreach; they put their name on it.

We built Career Representation™ to bring that same execution directly to you, with no middleman between the work and the results. We're currently rolling it out to a limited group of clients so every search still gets our full attention.

The Hidden Cost of "Waiting"

Every month you spend searching manually is a month of lost income. See exactly what your DIY approach is costing you.

  • Lost salary from delayed placement
  • Hours wasted on scrolling LinkedIn
  • Missed internal opportunities

Our Track Record

We've run hundreds of job searches. Here's what our execution actually produces.

50-80%

Final-Round Interview Rate

Reach a final-round interview within 1-3 months.*

60-80

Hours Saved

Dedicated to your search each month.

*Measures the share of clients who reach a final-round interview — not job placement. That rate rises the longer clients stay engaged, reaching 95% over a full 6-month engagement.

We don't coach. We do the work you hate.

We're not here to give you more advice. You've had enough advice. Here's the architecture we use to actually get you interviews.

01

Authority Positioning

We rebuild your resume and LinkedIn not just for keywords, but for authority. We position you as the prize, not the applicant.

02

Live Execution Dashboard

No black boxes. You get a live Google Sheet dashboard tracking every single application, email sent, and recruiter response in real-time. We don't ghost you. We don't black-box you. You see everything.

03

Dedicated Inbox Monitoring

We provision a dedicated job-search email and monitor the inbox daily. You never miss an interview request, phone screen, or recruiter reply.

04

The Execution Pod

You aren't alone. You have a dedicated Slack channel connecting you to your Execution Rep and Strategist. We're your execution team — not your coach. Async updates, zero fluff meetings.

What's Included, At a Glance

Every plan draws from the same execution stack. Here's what's actually running behind the scenes.

Job Bucket Targeting

Instead of one resume per posting, we group your target roles into "buckets" — clusters of titles you're equally strong for — and build one high-performing resume and outreach angle per bucket. You get the precision of tailoring without the 1:1 time cost, so we can apply at volume without diluting quality.

Resume Rebuild

Rebuilt for ATS pass-through and human authority — not just keyword stuffing.

LinkedIn Optimization

Positioned to get found by recruiters searching for exactly your profile, not just to look nice.

High-Volume Execution

We run the applications and outreach at a scale you couldn't sustain solo, tracked live on your dashboard.

Interview Prep

Mock and behavioral interviews tailored to the roles you're actually landing.

Salary Negotiation

Guidance on the offer itself, so the placement doesn't leave money on the table.

Step 1: Target Roles

Beyond Career Representation

A Few Other Ways We Help

Frequently Asked Questions

Timeline: Can vary a ton depending on what roles are opening up, how many people are applying, and what our partner companies are looking for. It can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to lock things in. Hang tight while we work behind the scenes, and we'll keep you in the loop every step of the way! More interviews. Less burnout. That's the goal.

Active Career Representation is more than just finding your next job; it's a commitment to your long-term career growth. We'll help you secure your next role by acting as your execution arm.

Specifically, your program includes:

  • Resume & LinkedIn Optimization: Tailored for Authority Positioning.
  • Dedicated Email & Inbox Monitoring: We provision and watch a dedicated email for you daily.
  • High-Volume Application Execution: 50+ applications per week, fully prepared and queued by us — a quick one-tap approval is all it takes on your end. Volume can flex higher depending on your target market, role availability, and tier.
  • Managed Proxy Networking: Acting as your authorized representative, we perform direct outreach to hiring decision-makers on your behalf — and we identify ourselves as your representation, not as you.

50-80% of clients reach a final-round interview within the first one to three months — that rate climbs to 95% for clients who stay engaged over a full 6-month period. That's a final-round interview rate, not a placement guarantee: it measures whether our outreach and positioning get you deep into a real process with decision-makers, which is the part we directly control.

Our approach works because we don't just "apply." Acting as your authorized representative — and identifying ourselves as such — we use Managed Proxy Networking to bypass the black hole of ATS systems and reach decision-makers directly on your behalf.

We work in 30-day execution cycles:

  • Week 1: Authority Positioning (Resume + LinkedIn overhaul).
  • Week 2+: Execution Engine activates. We prepare and queue 50+ applications/week (100+ for Executive). Where a platform's terms allow submission by an authorized representative, we handle it as your rep; where a platform requires the applicant to submit personally, you review and hit submit on your own account — either way, every attestation and EEOC disclosure is completed by you, not us.
  • Ongoing: We monitor your dedicated inbox for interview requests and handle networking follow-ups.
  • Interviews: Once you land interviews, we provide prep and negotiation support.

Execution Sample: Direct Outreach

Sample outreach message available upon request during your consultation.

Example of outreach sent on your behalf as your authorized representative — identified as such to the recipient — a standard staffing-industry practice known as Right to Represent.

Yes, and we provide it for you.

For ALL plans, we provision a dedicated job search email. This is critical for two reasons: it keeps your personal inbox clean, and it allows our team to monitor your inbox daily to ensure no interview request or recruiter message is ever missed. We act as your eyes and ears.

To be clear: this doesn't extend to legally protected disclosures. Self-identification and veteran status questions (EEOC/VEVRAA) are voluntary and personal to you, so we never pre-fill or complete those fields — not partially, not as a default you approve. You answer that section yourself, every time.

Yes. Once we secure you interviews, you'll work with our placement team or strategist. These sessions are tailored to the exact types of roles we are placing you in, helping you refine your answers and boost your confidence.

We operate on a strictly flat-fee model for all tiers. There is NO success fee or backend percentage taken from your salary. You simply pay the flat fee to cover your execution pod's infrastructure and labor, and you keep 100% of your signing bonus.

We start optimizing your profile in Week 1. By Week 2, we begin aggressive outreach. Most clients start seeing interview opportunities within 2-3 weeks of the campaign launching. The typical timeframe to secure a job offer averages between 1 to 3 months, though executive roles may take longer.

Guarantees: Let's be upfront: we guarantee execution, not employment. We guarantee we will do the work — 50+ applications per week (100+ for Executive), plus direct outreach to decision-makers. We guarantee your resume and LinkedIn get rebuilt for authority. We guarantee we'll monitor your inbox daily so you never miss a recruiter. But we can't guarantee a job offer or how many interviews it generates — that's up to employers. What we can guarantee is that you won't waste 80 hours a month fighting algorithms alone, and that you'll have a team in your corner doing the work you'd rather not do.

Cancellations: Our service is month-to-month. You can pause or cancel at any time by emailing support. Refunds are available on a sliding scale only within the first 30 days of service.

We focus on high-paying roles ($100k+) across:

  • Tech & Engineering: AI, Cyber, Cloud, Software, Product.
  • Business & Finance: Sales, Ops, Accounting, Management.
  • Healthcare: Admin, Nursing, specialized roles.
  • Professional Services: Legal, HR, Marketing.

The Active Hunter is our core execution engine, available only to candidates based in the United States. To qualify, you must have an active LinkedIn account and a completed SBM Profile.

It's $99/month, billed monthly for as long as you're active. This covers your onboarding, ATS resume alignment, and your ongoing execution pod. If our team determines your profile is unplaceable in the current market, or if you fail to engage with our process, we will cancel your representation and refund your most recent payment in full to cut our losses.

Absolutely. We are your continuous career partner. Once you are placed, you can transition to our "Career Insurance" plan or simply pause and reactivate us when you are ready for your next move.

Pricing is dynamic for new clients, but once you subscribe, your rate is locked in as long as you remain active. If you pause, you can resume at your original rate.

We work with a diverse range of multinational clients across tech, pharma, and finance. Our Executive tier specifically targets confidential transitions and high-level opportunities for professionals with $200K+ target salaries.

Every client gets a dedicated email for us to manage. Proxy Networker and Executive clients also receive a Custom Domain (e.g., you@yourname.com) which boosts authority and deliverability when we contact executives on your behalf.

If we haven't secured a role, we reassess the strategy (roles, industry, resume). You can always transition between tiers, or simply cancel if you feel we aren't a fit. You only pay for the representation you received.

We use a dedicated Slack Channel for all communication. This gives you direct, asynchronous access to your Execution Rep and Strategist without the need for constant Zoom calls. You also have 24/7 access to your Live Execution Dashboard (Google Sheet) to see exactly what we are doing.

While we handle 90% of the manual labor, your "job" is to be the Closer. We require you to: 1) Respond to interview requests within 24-48 hours, 2) Keep us updated on your interview stages via Slack, and 3) Show up prepared for the calls we book for you.

If you secure a role through a personal connection or a previous application not initiated by our engine, you owe us nothing further. You can simply cancel your subscription. We only claim a "Win" for leads generated via our managed dashboard.

An introduction is any instance where our team connects you to a hiring manager or recruiter—whether via direct application, LinkedIn proxy outreach, or email. Every action is logged transparently on your Live Execution Dashboard so attribution is always clear.

You are the CEO of your career. If an offer doesn't align with your requirements, you have every right to decline it. We simply recalibrate our targeting and continue the execution engine until we find the role you are excited to sign for.

First, you create a free profile and upload your current resume. Second, you place your flat fee checkout. Immediately after your payment is processed, you will be prompted to schedule a quick kickoff call with a member of our Opportunity Sourcing Team.

During this call, their strategic insights will help map out your ATS resume rewrite, your LinkedIn profile revamp, and our networking execution strategy. This ensures our agents are perfectly aligned with your target roles before we start sending applications.

Cost: $20 one-time onboarding. This covers vetting, profile setup, and access to our project pipeline.

How we earn: We take a 10-15% success fee only when you secure a project through our network. You only pay when you win work.

What you get:

  • Access to enterprise consulting projects
  • Client onboarding, contracting, and invoicing handled by us
  • Network of former Big 4 and FAANG experts
  • Cross-referral opportunities
  • Partner community access (Slack, events, thought leadership)
  • Choose your engagements (remote, hybrid, or on-site)

Commitment: None. Choose the projects that fit your expertise and availability. Pause or leave anytime.

Who qualifies: Independent consultants and boutique firms with 5+ years in cybersecurity, IT auditing, AI/ML, software or cloud engineering, data, or related tech fields.

Most candidates are qualified for more than one job title — you may have worn several hats across your career and could realistically apply under two, three, or more related titles. Rather than writing a brand-new resume for every individual posting, we group your target roles into "buckets": clusters of similar titles you're equally competitive for.

We then build one high-performing resume and outreach angle per bucket. You get most of the benefit of true 1:1 tailoring, without the time cost of writing a unique resume for every single posting — which is what lets us apply at volume without the quality dropping off.

Right now, we exclusively work with candidates based in the United States. If you're located outside the US, we're not a fit for your search at this time.

Absolutely. Book a call and we'll walk you through which plan fits your search.
