Book a free 15-min intro

Now and next

IT PROS thinks not only about the now, but about how today’s decisions impact your future job searches. A résumé line, an introduction, or a negotiation choice that helps today should also strengthen the search after this one.

Who this is for

Advisory is for US citizens and green card holders with tech-related education or experience, currently located in the USA.

Your complete recruiter-ready career system.

Not a résumé refresh in isolation. Every plan includes the materials, rehearsal, and decision support required to run a more credible search.

A clear process, from first call to offer.

  1. Free 15-minute evaluation. You discuss target roles, current positioning, and search friction with Brad. You leave with the clearest next step, with no obligation to purchase coaching.
  2. Choose your plan. Pick the plan that fits how much of your search still needs to be built, then check out securely through Stripe.
  3. Build your foundation. Your résumé, LinkedIn profile, video cover letter, and crawlable résumé website are built first, so recruiters can find you.
  4. Search with warm introductions. Targeted outreach, direct introductions where your background aligns, interview prep, and mock interviews.
  5. Decide and negotiate. Offer selection and negotiation support for this role, with every decision weighed against your future searches too, not just the role in front of you.

Clear answers

Know exactly what you are saying yes to.

Can you help me?

Yes, if three things are true: you are a US citizen or green card holder, you have tech-related education or experience, and you are currently located in the USA. If that describes you, start with the free 15-minute evaluation.

What does the process look like?

First, a free 15-minute evaluation. If you are accepted, you check out securely through Stripe, receive your onboarding and first action steps, and book your onboarding call. We begin with the foundational elements: your résumé, LinkedIn profile, video cover letter, and your résumé hosted on a crawlable website (inurl:resume) so recruiters can find you. Then we move into warm introductions, interview prep, mock interviews, and offer selection and negotiation. Most searches take about three months on average, depending on interview processes and experience level.

Which option makes the most sense for me?

It depends on how much of your search still needs to be built. The 4-Week Career Accelerator fits a focused launch, the 3-Month Accelerator fits a full search (most searches take about three months), and VIP Advisory fits senior tech leaders making a high-stakes move. The free evaluation exists to make this call honestly before you pay anything.

Will I work only with Brad Kielinski?

Yes. Every plan is private 1:1 work with Brad Kielinski directly. There is no junior handoff and no team of coaches behind the scenes.

How is free recruiter matching different from paid coaching?

Recruiter matching is free because an employer pays us when they hire. Coaching is a private service where you invest in 1:1 strategy, positioning, interview preparation, and offer support designed around your own search goals.

What happens in the free strategy call?

You will discuss your target roles, current positioning, and search friction with Brad. If a free matching path or paid coaching path makes sense, you will leave with the clearest next step. There is no obligation to purchase coaching.

What does a deferred option mean?

Deferred options lower the amount due at enrollment and add a defined payment obligation due at your first direct deposit from your new employer. You don't pay the balance until the new job pays you. Review the applicable terms before you enroll; it is flexible payment timing, not a guarantee or a risk-free claim.

What is included with every active plan?

Every active plan includes the recruiter-ready asset system, job tracker, interview preparation, mock interviews, and offer negotiation and selection support described above. The pace and depth of private support vary by plan.

Can I get direct introductions without coaching?

Yes. When your background aligns with an open client role, recruiter matching is free. The paid programs are for candidates who want intentional 1:1 strategy beyond any particular opening.

Is 1:1 advisory available outside Philadelphia?

Yes. IT PROS provides 1:1 technology job-search advisory nationwide across the United States.
