Company. Catalyze Career Coaching provides an executive-level job search program.

Scope of Services. Catalyze Career Coaching conducts an in-depth assessment of the client's current career status, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. We collaborate to set clear and achievable career goals. We create a personalized career action plan outlining specific steps to achieve the client's goals. We include a review and provide feedback on the client's resume and LinkedIn profile. Offer guidance on interview techniques, including mock interviews. Assist the client in developing an effective job search strategy. Provide guidance on building a professional network and personal branding. Conduct scheduled coaching sessions (in-person, by phone, or via video conferencing) to discuss progress and challenges.

Service Fees and Payment Terms. The client agrees to pay the admission fee upfront and no refunds will be offered after the second coaching session. The client agrees to pay the placement fee within 15 days of accepting a new offer within the first 12 months of starting the program. Any offer after 12 months of beginning the program will be waived of the placement fee.

Admission & Placement Fee:

• $3000 admission fee and 2% placement fee (standard)
• $4000 admission fee and 1% placement fee (for those who prefer paying a bit more upfront and less later)
• $1800 admission fee and 4% placement fee (for those who prefer paying less upfront and deferring the bulk of the payment until after they land their new job, regardless of how it takes)

The Placement fee is based on the first year’s estimated cash compensation. Cash compensation equals base compensation plus incentives (a reasonable estimate of any commissions, annual or sign-on bonuses, and other incentives, as indicated in the offer letter.)
