Career Counseling

How it works

Our main focus is partnering top performing (go to market) sellers/execs with earlier stage tech orgs or one of our other niches.

If we have an immediate opening with our b2b employer clients/founders at the time we meet you, being represented by us is FREE and we will give you access to all of our resources & insights to help you land the gig$ you desire.

Many of our sales and sales executive candidates are looking to be intentional with their search & get top dollar.

Since starting It's Destiny Recruiting we have been able to make an impact with busy sellers and execs who are looking to put their best foot forward when building their receipts & planning their next move.

Many of our candidates see the value in investing in additional resources like admin and 1x1 for resumes, LinkedIn, interviews and presentations.

Once we meet we will build a list of your goals and do everything we can to get you there (and get our b2b clients to pay us a fee because they hire you! ;))

"As a b2b seller, the last thing I want to be exclusively known for is someone's executive or sales career coach"

"...but it turns out I’m really good at it"

- Destiny Brandt, Founder & Sales/Executive Recruiter

Profiles who work with me

Two primary types of profiles work with me for 1x1 consulting (sometimes you are both!)

πŸ™„ Cautious πŸ™„

  • Want to work through numbers and stories together.

  • Developing confidence in career and impact story (how to describe short/long tenure, business ventures, gaps).

  • Unsure how to navigate "running interviews" when sales/sales executive jobs can feel like the opposite of a genuine "discovery".

πŸ€‘ Busy πŸ€‘

  • Have all their numbers, screenshots and stories just need us to format and finalize to present.

  • Intentional about the search, want to prioritize time in the "right" places.

  • Potentially wanting to build both W-2 and consulting projects - we can talk about how to generate both while interviewing.

Some of our career counseling turned placed candidates have been our BIGGE$T placements because we have been able to sell to our employer clients your intentionality around your search & really SHOW the impact you have made beyond a resume & 30 min interview.

The Basic Plan Includes

Resume Templates

Access to our resume templates & Linkedin Optimization checklist - increasing conversions (you lose in first and final stages with resumes that don't speak to the SVP/CFO).

Inbound Leads

Get more inbound leads (so they come to you) understand how recruiters, executives and founders FIND you & what our qualification process is to warrant a reach out or hire.

Networking & Interviewing

30 minutes of networking & Interview advice - The "game" of creating positions using recruiting Boolean techniques to find executives proactively in your space.

LinkedIn Optimization

Learn how to REALLY set up up LinkedIn - product keywords, metrics, types of media to include and how to find and utilize all your metrics and conversions - confidence in interviews come when they start rolling in and you have your process on lock (leading to higher comp and potentially shortened recruiting life cycle).

Positioning

Learn how to really SELL yourself on paper & throughout your interview cycles in a way that can be templated, duplicated and sometimes automated to generate calls and make interviewing "easier" over time.

Build Confidence

Get your power back, learn how to build out stories companies want to hear, build trust before you get on calls, take control of interviews by leading the conversation, pitch yourself at the highest level - resulting in you getting more interviews, getting hired faster and at the top end of the range - networking, executive presence (resume/receipts/LinkedIn) and interview approach are critical.

Career Counseling Packages

60+ sales reps and executives have invested in one on one career services (more executives than individual contributors) to put their best foot forward, generating more inbound job leads and close leads at their expected compensation range.

Once wet meet you you will also get on our candidate bench for open jobs with our b2b employer clients as they open up.

What They're Saying...

From the first time I met Destiny, it was clear she genuinely cares about her clients. Destiny is honest, communicative, and hardworking. She combines reliability and attention to detail with genuine care for each individual. She deeply understands organizational needs and candidate aspirations. Her integrity, empathy, and dedication make her invaluable. I highly recommend her for consistently exceeding expectations. She provides transparent and actionable feedback, ensuring you feel supported. Worked with Destiny after her CMO client recommended I do, very impressed. Destiny worked along side me to build out my resume (has not been done for years) to really focus on metrics, conversions and showcase my experiences building GTM customer success processes. She also built, and finalized my day zero- 120 success plans for founding CSM/AM jobs. Her support helped me land interviews at companies like Pocus, Outreach and G2 and others.

Destiny is also a great executive coach. We worked one on one to scale my own business. From refining ICP, outbound messaging, contract language, and executive presentations, she was a great partner in building those out. I appreciate her style of keeping me accountable while hyping me up. Destiny helped give me a deeper understanding of my value and helped me develop receipts to land the clients I wanted to work with. I highly recommend working with Destiny as a b2b recruiting partnership vendor, or one on one if you are trying to level up your sales, biz or executive game.

As a long term candidate of Destiny, I knew I needed to invest in receipts before my final round of interviews. Worked with Destiny to write my AE/AM/CSM resume, a AE presentation and a AM/CSM presentation day 0-120 day plan. Very happy with the results!

Destiny’s consulting has given me so much confidence in expanding my small business. She is an out-of-the-box thinker who knows how to reach untapped markets quickly and effectively. Her suggestions on where to grow were solutions I had never considered. Destiny’s small business sessions have helped me generate $27k in my small business!! Quite a small investment for a large return!!! Looking to get creative with your business and reach clients you didn’t know you’d collaborate well with? Speak with Destiny. It is soooo worth it.

Destiny’s coaching style is a unique blend of empathy and tough love. I went to her after feeling defeated and uncertain on the next steps to take in my consulting business. She helped me get out of my own way and face issues with imposter syndrome head on.

Destiny was referred to me by a friend who is supporting me in my new business venture and I am happy I made the call. Destiny is a breath of fresh air. She is upbeat, positive with a can do attitude, and at the same time keeps it real. Thank you for your inspiration, support and insights. Destiny believes in you, has your best interests in mind and freely shares her unlimited resources, business advice and tips that will help you succeed in achieving your desired goal and outcomes. Give yourself the gift of working with Destiny Brandt!

In two words, I would describe Destiny as sharp and astute at what she does. During my first call with her, I knew immediately that her knowledge and expertise is exactly what I needed to help me get some perspective on leveraging my talent. She is brilliant and I look forward to continuing to work with her as I continue to take the next steps in my journey. If you’re considering working with her, do it yesterday.

I wanted to take some time to make a very well-deserved recommendation and review for Destiny Brandt's recruiting services. As a sales professional with over 18 years of experience, I have encountered many recruiters, but none have impressed me as much as Destiny. Her knowledge of job hunting and talent searching is near encyclopedic, and her enthusiasm and interpersonal skills set her apart. What truly distinguishes Destiny is her up-to-date expertise on all aspects of recruiting. She is a one-stop shop for job hunting and talent recruiting, making her an invaluable asset to any company. If there were a recruiting "hall of fame," she would certainly be a shoo-in! I would be happy to elaborate further if you have any questions. Once again, she receives a full five out of five stars (I would give more if possible).

Destiny and her firm are top notch at what they do. Not only does Destiny listen, but she absorbs and her positivity is a sincere bright light to both candidates and clients. As a long term b2b partner of Destiny as a CMO and CGO/CSO I have been very impressed with the work she has put in. Destiny's executive coaching and administrative work, has helped me find the life blood of who I am, and have enabled me to push towards one of my entrepreneurial dreams. I have sent her many of my executive peers, and they enjoy working with her as much as I do.

Destiny and the IDR team are a trusted business resource. She has a capable understanding of business operations (I am a CFO) and how cross functional teams operate and collaborate. She has the quick ability to understand concepts and gaps, and bring solutions, people and process together. Her results as both a recruiting vendor, and executive coach are top tier. She brings ideas and executes them.

Within ONE WEEK I had a 300% ROI on this session by just adopting one new client. Destiny is great at listening to your strengths and finding clients where you'd least expect them. She has helped me realize where there is unmet demand and how I can shift my offerings to make more $. There are also SO many platforms she's helped me expand on! In short: these sessions paid off.

I have worked with IDR/Destiny on multiple occasions Hiring sales, marketing and operations/admin candidates at scale As a resume writer, executive presentation developer and as a consultant who helped me get noticed when applying to positions at series A-C startups A small business coach, where Destiny supported me from idea (professional balloon and events- think proposals, fancy picnics, balloon and flower arches, unique furniture for day of event- rentals) to pricing, contracts, and relationship channels. So thankful for her creativity, energy, ideas, templates and results. :)

When I say that meeting Destiny has been a blessing, it's definitely an understatement. If you've had the opportunity to work with a recruiter, I'm sure you know how "salesy" the art of selling resumes is. That said, meeting Destiny was indeed a chance to meet a friend and gain a champion. Destiny's affability and charm, coupled with her corporate SaaS/tech background and professionalism, combined with her go-attitude and tenacious approach on behalf of her clients, makes her the # 1 recruiter! After a couple of calls with Destiny, she brought me a handful of interview loops, and after a few short weeks, I was in the negotiating stages with a few top-notch, pre-IPO and post-IPO tech organizations. Destiny, I can't thank you enoughβ€”and although seldom heard in the recruiting worldβ€”I'm looking forward to working with you again!

It's easy to lose faith in yourself after a layoff. It's even easier after a second layoff in 7 months. But then Destiny came along to give me confidence in myself again. Her coaching will help you bridge the confidence gap. She's an absolute expert in her craft and will help you master the game so you get every dollar you can in your next role and coach you through which offers you should walk away from. Beefing up resumes. Optimizing LinkedIn. Job search. Interview preparation. Salary Negotiations. Destiny does everything to help you shine even more. Everyone needs their own recruiter to make sure their interests are actually covered. Especially if you're a minority. And Destiny is the best in the business!

So glad I booked time with Destiny. She gave lots of insightful, actionable tips that likely saved me 20+ hours of research and banging my head against a wall. I walked away feeling confident and hopeful. She's a fresh, unique voice in the tech recruiting world : )
