People I've helped land jobs đ

Ryan Gartner
Hospitality â  Sales Engineer
â Deciding to leave Hospitality into the Tech industry was a life-changing career pivot. Yuji's guidance on transferable skills was instrumental in building my confidence. Not only helping me with learning the foundations of being a great Sales Engineer, he also introduced me to my dream job. Thank you, Yuji! â

Tia Carley
Educator â Solutions Engineer
â Yuji provided me with so much support during my career transition as I journeyed from early childhood education into tech and PreSales. He challenged me to learn and develop new skills, helped me build a network, and offered guidance every step of the way. His excellent advice will stay with me as I continue to grow and develop, and I absolutely credit so much of my success as a career changer to Yujiâs guidance. â

Aidan Gunda
SDR â Solutions Consultant
"Â Yujiâs an incredible mentor. I came to Yuji as an ex-SDR/ex-data analyst and am now a Solutions Consultant with a public tech company. Where he helped most was in evaluating two offers that I received. Yuji took the time to understand what was important to me and helped me land a role that I canât be happier with. Working with him is a no-brainer! "

â Thanks to Yuji I was able to make the transition into tech after a career in small business ownership. His guidance and mentorship were invaluable to my transition and it wouldnât have been possible without him. Iâm forever grateful to have a mentor like Yuji. His ability to coach and mentor people from various backgrounds is a testament to his dedication to helping people succeed. â

â Yuji had been a great influence in me switching from QA to Presales. Yuji mentored me through the process and has always been available for a meeting to get me through multiple situations in my career.
