1:1 Career Coaching for tech professionals in ANZ

You're not getting rejected. You're getting filtered.

I'm a recruiter who still works inside ANZ tech hiring. In our first session I share my screen and show you exactly what your application hits before a human sees it, then we fix it together, from your first tech role to your first Head of title.

★★★★★

“I've accepted a Principal Software Engineer role at a well-known Big Four bank on an A$310k+ total package. Thank you for training me and helping me prove my value to them. Your guidance made the difference.”

“His deep experience across the IT sector meant he could offer both broad, strategic advice and highly targeted guidance for my more senior, management-level aspirations… it was just such an article that landed me an interview and subsequent role offer!”

Wayne Moss
Senior, management-level move

My clients get hired by the top tech companies in Australia and New Zealand.

When effort isn't the issue, strategy is.

The hiring process is confusing, slow, and full of unknowns, especially in a competitive tech market.

does this sound like you?

I keep sending applications and just waiting for the rejection email. I honestly don't know what's going wrong.

I don't really know what I'm worth, so I don't know what to ask for or even what to apply for.

The interviews go really well, and then no offer. I never find out what actually cost me the role.

I've got the degree, the skills and the projects. I just can't get a foot in the door for that first role.

I've got real experience, but my resume and LinkedIn just aren't doing it justice.

I'm new to the Australian tech market and I have no idea how hiring actually works here.

I've been out of work longer than I expected, people are counting on me, and the silence is starting to wear me down.

I want to move up or change direction, but I'm second-guessing every move and not sure what's next.

I'm pivoting into tech and my applications get rejected before anyone will even talk to me.

I don't want another generic template. I want someone who actually knows how hiring works from the inside.

If any of those sounded like you, you're exactly who this works for.

Here's what changed for people who started where you are now:

★★★★★

“He helped me recognise the value I bring and showed me why that value wasn't coming through in my applications… His guidance and mentorship played a direct role in helping me secure my dream role, along with a significant salary increase.”

Bailey Nepe
Dream role + significant salary increase

★★★★★

“I started out my job search optimistically, only to be confronted with beyond challenging conditions… 6 weeks later I have multiple offers. This is especially positive considering I'm here in Australia on a temporary visa.”

Nicole
Multiple offers in 6 weeks, on a temporary visa

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

Before I give you a single tip, I show you the machine.

Most career advice is written by people guessing at what happens after you apply. I don't have to guess. I'm on the other side of it every week. So we start with the part most advice skips. I share my screen and walk you through what your application actually hits:

01

The ATS parse

What the software strips your resume down to before a human is ever involved, and why strong people get auto-filtered out. I score yours in Careersy AI on the call so you see it on your own resume.

02

The recruiter search

I run the real sourcing search a recruiter would run for your target role in LinkedIn Recruiter, live, so you see whether you even show up and where you rank.

03

The Open to Work filter

How recruiters actually use it, and why I'll often tell you to turn it on, not off.

04

The reject template

The message that goes out to most applicants, and the few things that keep you out of that pile.

Here's what almost nobody tells you.

Every time you apply, you go into that system by name, and you're hard to get out. Apply broadly and you can quietly work against yourself at your target companies for months or longer. And once you've applied to a role yourself, a later referral into that same role usually carries far less weight. That's why “just apply to more jobs” is some of the most expensive advice you'll ever take.

Once you've seen the machine, everything we do next makes sense. You're not following tips on faith. You've watched the problem with your own eyes, and we fix it from the inside.

HOW PEOPLE ACTUALLY GET IN

Most tech roles aren't won by applying. They're won by who refers you.

61%

got in through a referral, a headhunt, or hustle

38%

got in by applying

Based on my own poll.

That hidden job market is exactly where I work.

In Premium, I don't just coach you. If I know someone at your target company, I make the introduction myself: a named, vetted referral, because it spends my reputation as a working recruiter. I make it when you're ready, not before. That's 10,000+ connections across ANZ tech, including 300+ hiring managers and 100+ recruiters.

Hi, I'm Eli.

I'm a working tech recruiter in ANZ, and the calls I make every week, who gets shortlisted and who gets cut, are the same calls landing on people like you right now. After 13 years on the hiring side, the pattern barely moves: capable people rarely get cut on ability. They get cut because nobody in the room can read what they're actually capable of. I started Careersy to fix that, for grads chasing a first role and leaders stepping into Head of alike. Let's make the room see it.
