Mag Pleban is your Job Search Coach.
She specializes in modern employers in the digital industry, media, fashion and HR.
There is no second chance for the first impression during the application phase.
To help you reach your goals in a TIMELY, STRESS-FREE and SUCCESSFUL manner, while avoiding mistakes and rejections, I offer you structured 1:1 job application coaching, in which you will benefit from my HR perspective and 12 years of experience.
MODERN JOB SEARCH COACHING
includes proven step-by-step strategies for:
Clarity in your career orientation and self-evaluation
To determine the actual & target state, define your potentials, find a strategy suitable for you and set realistic goals for your job search.
Job ad search off the beaten track
To find open vacancies that best suit you so that you can choose from a variety of offers. Everyone is searching on Indeed & Stepstone but should this be all?
Creation of a resume according to modern German trends
To get the reader's attention, set yourself apart from your competitors, match your skills to the position's needs and get invited to interviews.
Creation of your cover letter in a creative language
To rebut possible objections to your experience and powerfully present your motivation, achievements, and individual strengths.
Job interview simulation and training
To practice and run through possible scenarios at all stages of interviews so that you appear prepared, authentic, thoughtful and successful.
LinkedIn profile polish up
To position yourself as a desirable candidate who will be found and contacted not by just any employers, but by those who are most suited to you.
Networking
To get referred internally and increase your chances of getting the jobs that are not (yet) advertised, even without knowing anyone in Germany yet!
Salary and contractual negotiation incl. expert insights on common salary ranges
To realistically determine salary aspirations, communicate confidently, and hold your own against other applicants.
Optional service: Transition to another sector
To guide you through a (lateral) entry (e.g. into HR Management) without any previous experience. This is a supplementary service that I offer on demand.
MAG'S STORY
“Thank you for your application.
Unfortunately, we have to inform you that another candidate was a better fit for the job profile and therefore we have to reject you.”
Pheeew… How much frustration and disappointment these sentences would cause me often. Years ago, I read these automated standard rejections many times.
And yet, as an applicant, I was always well prepared, customized my documents, actually thought the interviews went great, but still didn’t get my dream jobs.
I’m Mag, and all of this often made me feel desperate, especially in my early twenties!
Until the time when I recruited, interviewed and hired employees in Germany myself.
I am grateful to have gained many valuable experiences in recruiting and HR management over the past 12 years. Whether in a young, agile start-up environment, or in international, successful corporations.
If you are currently looking for a job in Germany or would like to reorient yourself professionally and benefit from my insider know-how as a Recruiter, if you also would like to learn how I succeeded in getting top-notch jobs with first-class employers and getting offers from the most recognized companies, simply reach out to me!
