PODJETNIŠTVO

Whether you are at a crossroads in your career, considering a new role, seeking a mentor or dreaming about launching your own business; having access to the advice of a seasoned professional makes all the difference.

Why struggle when you can benefit from my perspective and experience? I can also offer the nuances of a different viewpoint and draw from my own expertise. Utilising all of my skills will allow you to arm yourself with the best chances of success. I offer these skills for success in a number of packages:

Professional Resume/CV, Cover Letter and LinkedIn Profile Review

Is your resume getting overlooked, or are you considering applying for a new role that your CV doesn’t quite fit? Although there is no magic formula for a perfect resume, the very best CVs describe you correctly and emphasise your best skills in a format that reviewers/employers respond to. It is often the case that resumes alone are no longer enough. They need to be paired up with Cover letters and LinkedIn profiles. Most employers are now on LinkedIn and every day more and more of them utilise it to source candidates. Your LinkedIn profile is your personal brand.

For a Resume, I will review and critique:

  • General Statement of Qualifications, if applicable.
  • Resume Formatting
  • Missing Information
  • Spelling, Grammar, and Sentence Structures
  • Relevant Skills and Experiences
  • Overall Consistency

For a Cover Letter, I will review & critique:

  • Cover Letter Formatting
  • Paragraph Structure
  • Personal Feel
  • Relevant Skills and Experiences
  • Proper Greeting
  • Overall Consistency

For a LinkedIn Profile, I will review and optimize:

  • Your Profile Picture
  • Your Profile Summary
  • Your Profile Status
  • Your Profile Connections
  • Your Profile Sections

Interview Preparation

If you have a job interview, then interview preparation is a must! I have 17 years of experience in sourcing employees and interviewing as a Supervisor, Manager, Vice President and Executive Sponsor in legacy and start-up companies stateside and internationally. I have personally conducted workshops, given training and conducted over 4000 various types of interviews from which over 800 Team Members were hired, therefore I have the expertise necessary to help you land your dream job.

I offer two types of Interview Preparation packages, a General Package and a Specific Package. Preparation is critical, and I am here to ensure you attend your interview confident and prepared to make a great impression on your interviewers.

General Package

The purpose of this package is to guide and assist. It is designed to help you generally prepare for various types of interviews. Most people are nervous and fear the unknown – not knowing what to expect from an interview or what questions could be asked can lead to nervousness or freezing up.

MORE

In our two hours together, my job will be to help you avoid these pitfalls by guiding you through:

  • Different Types of Interviews
  • Different Interviewer Personalities
  • Most Common Interview Mistakes
  • 20 Interview Questions You Should Master
  • Behavioral Interview Tactics
  • Questions to Ask at the Conclusion
  • Tips on How to Dress for an Interview
  • How and When to Properly Follow up
  • Practice Mock-up Interview

Interviews are all about ticking boxes. I can help you feel more prepared and less nervous; no matter your interview experience, we will enable you to put your best foot forward and show the interview panel exactly why you are an excellent choice for the role.

Specific Interview Package

This package is intended for professionals in the active stage of an interview process, no matter what stage. Arming yourself with the competitive insight and extra business acumen of someone who has experience can make all the difference at this stage.

In this package you will receive
  • 30 Minute Review/Discussion of Your Goals and Expectations
  • Review of my Research of the Organization, Position, and Panel (if applicable) for Which you Are Interviewing
  • Discussion on Competitive Positioning
  • Internal vs. External Candidate Tactics
  • How to Negotiate
  • Ways to Form a Powerful Greeting
  • How to Interact with Panels in Various Interview Arrangements (Panel, Fundraiser, Informal Dinner, Event, Concert, Golf Game etc.)
  • Assessment of Your Interview Skills
  • Detailed Debrief and Feedback on How to Improve
  • Final Mock-up Interview to Polish Your Skills

Executive coaching/Mentorship

For most of us, a career is an ongoing process. Even if things are going well you might be navigating new and uncharted waters, in this case you could benefit from a second set of eyes on a presentation or project you’re handling. This is where having a mentor, or an executive coach, can make all the difference. It’s like having your very own Executive whose only job is to support you.

  • 1 Hour Review/Discussion of Your Goals and Expectations and Current State + Review of Any Developmental/Cultural Documents (360s, year-end or quarterly reviews, corrective actions, individuals development plans etc.)
  • Monthly/Quarterly (Based on Your Need) Meetings With Me to Guide Your Progress Towards Agreed-upon Goals

I met Gregor while working for Business Class Consolidator/Bravels. He was the Head of Sales and my direct manager for six months. From the first day, Gregor started to lead weekly training to share his comprehensive knowledge of the sales cycle and customer service. The atmosphere and culture change was immediately apparent. Everybody in a team got inspired and was looking forward to hitting their individual and company’s targets. Shortly after, the office sales started to boost and kept increasing as long as Gregor was there.
Every day at 9 AM, Gregor led a motivational meeting for a team of 50+ sales experts; he always had a positive attitude and was willing to help every single agent. One of the primary skills that Gregor has is his ability to find a key for each agent’s success.
It was my pleasure to work with Gregor, and I strongly recommend to have Gregor as part of your team.

Uros Stampe

I have been a beneficiary of Gregor's openness and sincerity in both professional and mentorship capacity for the better part of the past two decades. His energy, enthusiasm, and passion for any venture he leads are contagious and inspiring. He balances both top-level revenue growth and bottom line by building and optimizing robust organizational processes focused on the customer, employee, and Team Member satisfaction and retention. He thrives in a complex, cross-functional, decentralized global team environment by building synergies where seemingly none exist. His knack for foreign languages and connecting with various cultures builds a culture of trust and collaboration with direct reports, peers, customers, and suppliers alike. I would welcome an opportunity to work with Gregor again. Any organization would be fortunate to have Gregor join their team.

Gregor’s greatest asset is his unbridled optimism. Regardless of the goals set for his team, his approach reflected a whatever it takes attitude. In both branch and call center channels, Gregor consistently drove his teams towards achieving sales results. His deep background in insurance sales would be of value to any growing sales organization.
