Any of these sound familiar?
Does anyone even read cover letters anymore? What else can I try?
How can I be sure my connections remember me?
How can I stand out among other qualified applicants?
How do I get people to want to read my resume or talk to me?
So much networking - somedays it feels like I'm stuck in a hamster wheel.
I can't seem to break through in my job search.

Fast forward to the formation of Uhlsee and conversations with a friend and mentor, who specializes in career transition and outplacement - the Professional Spotlight was born.
I've been there, too!
In 2008, I lost my job and, as a new, single mom, I had all the same worries and frustrations.
I learned that it takes more than a killer resume and perfected elevator pitch to get noticed.
So, what is this professional spotlight thing ?

+ 60-minute Discovery call
+ Up to two 45-minute revision calls (if applicable)
+ Up to 3 rounds of revisions
+ PDF version of completed Spotlight
+ Match your Spotlight branding with your other job search docs
+ And, I get that sometimes things change* (a new certification, skill, job change...) and you don't have the software to update your Spotlight. So, I'll also provide one additional round of minor edits to be used at a later time.
*If you think you'll need to make frequent changes, we can discuss a retainer plan to meet your needs.

You're clear about what you're looking for in your next career adventure.
You're looking for a way to stand out in your job search.
Now is a good time if...
Is a Professional Spotlight for you?
it may not be time yet if...
You're resume is updated - it doesn't have to be ready for print, but should have your recent info.
You're still trying to figure out whether you want to find another job or to start your own business.
You don't have an updated resume yet.
You haven't narrowed down exactly what you're looking for in your next job
(location, role, focus, type of company, etc).
It's for me!
