Danzger Group - Igniting Finance and Tech Careers

Are you finding it really hard to achieve your career objectives? Getting a job or transitioning out of what that doesn’t suit you. Or maybe you need to improve your current work situation?

I’m the solution. I help you land a gratifying, rewarding job or internship matched to your strengths and interests and to succeed in your career. I do this through one-on-one coaching and advising with a holistic, design-oriented approach.

I help you get off the hamster wheel of simply constantly applying to jobs and hearing crickets. I teach you how to supplement those applications with networking in a way that doesn’t feel cringey.

We’ll start by ensuring that you have some clarity on what you might like to do. It’s better to take a moment to reflect on where your strengths and interests might best be applied than to start randomly applying to jobs.

I ensure that your career documents (resume, LinkedIn, and cover letter) are in great shape.

I help you land and prepare for meetings and interviews.

I help you with the important, yet often-overlooked, things that many career coaches don’t consider, like evaluating and negotiating job offers and getting off on the right foot in a new job.

In short, I help you:

• Identify your strengths and passions to suggest career direction
• Create materials to present themselves in the most attractive light (e.g., resume, LinkedIn profile, cover letter)
• Learn how to build and grow your professional network to help land a job
• Master meeting and interviewing skills
• Understand how to evaluate and negotiate offers
• Succeed in the workplace with an early action plan

Career Coach and Advisor

I uplevel your career documents so you get more interviews and offers.

In today’s busy world, people who read your resume and LinkedIn profile give them quick scans. They must be concise and demonstrate what you can do for your next employer.

I transform your resume from a laundry list of roles and responsibilities to compelling, quantified accomplishments and achievements that make people stand up and take notice. 

When I’m through, you’ll not only have a polished resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letter, but you’ll be better prepared in meetings and interviews when you see how I’ve communicated you to others in writing.

Face it. There are few things as trying as being in a job you don’t like or searching for a job.

Both of these situations are often accompanied by restlessness, frustration, and anxiety.

How happy would you be to achieve your career goals and find meaningful, sustaining work that energizes you?

You CAN find your dream position when armed with the methodology to establish or confirm career direction and effectively execute a job search. Or, if you’re in a position that suits you, but you are confronting some obstacles, you may very well be able to improve your situation.

Hi, I’m Neil. I’m proud to have helped many people land exciting jobs and internships and improve their work situations. I’m happy to do the same for you.

My career has been largely at the intersection of finance, operations, and technology. I've run HR for the eight-figure revenue tech startup I co-founded, having hired 100 people, interviewed 500 people to find them, and reviewed thousands of resumes during my career. This follows earlier experience at big companies like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs and several startups.

Let me shepherd you in your career so you can be prepared to face any work situation confidently.
