I could not recommend Stephanie more highly. Working with her has fundamentally changed the way I approach job searching; I know I'll be more successful in navigating this process for the rest of my life because of what I've learned from her. Stephanie has helped me find directionality in my career, drastically improve my resume and career profiles, land MANY more interviews at top-notch companies, exponentially boost my interview conversion rates, and secure multiple(!) competitive job offers in a short time frame. Beyond her stats, Stephanie is an incredible person to work with. She's kind, knowlegeable, compassionate, and deeply devoted to her clients. She kept me calm and focused throughout our time working together, and I am eternally grateful for her help and guidance.

Stephanie was incredibly helpful during my job search from start to finish. She spent hours working with me to perfect my resume and encouraged me to apply for jobs that she thought might be a good fit for me. She even volunteered to connect with me anyone in her network that could provide insight on the companies I had my eye on. She really showed up as a coach, prepping me for every interview, giving me feedback on take-home assignments and debriefing each of them afterwards. She also motivated me when I got discouraged or nervous about the process. I’m still shocked that I got an offer in 40 days, thanks so much to Stephanie!

Reaching out to Stephanie for Career Coaching was the best decision for me! Stephanie helped me pivot my retail customer support background over to tech within a month. Now I am working for an amazing company that I love, plus I have increased my salary by $13k! Stephanie taught me the value in building my network, and guided me through the stages of job searching. I am so grateful for the guidance I received from her. Thanks Stephanie!

I was trying to switch careers for a year before I reached out to Stephanie. She definitely changed my whole perspective on job hunting. Working with Stephanie is rigorous but she knows exactly what she is doing and she does it well. She is the absolute most encouraging person and her support never wavers, she sticks with you from the beginning until the very end. As someone who is super busy and always on the go, Stephanie was so flexible and understanding of my schedule. With Stephanie's help, I was able to overcome the hurdle of being at an agency and move in house. I was able to break into the tech industry and get my dream job as a UX researcher (plus a 80% pay increase). I would 110% recommend Stephanie for anyone on the job hunt. She's the best!

Before enrolling in Steph's career bootcamp, I had spent months applying for jobs online without getting the traction I wanted. I thought I was never going to find a job, let alone one I actually might like! But during the two months I spent working with Steph, I booked interviews at 20+ top-tier tech companies, received multiple offers, and landed what feels like a dream job. The career bootcamp totally changed my perspective on job hunting. Using Steph's techniques, I was constantly learning new ways to market myself, start conversations with orgs I was interested in, and nurture those relationships. And I appreciated that Steph was always available to answer questions and provide reassurance. I can't recommend Steph's career consulting services highly enough!

Stephanie is an amazing career coach!! She helped me successfully transition from a finance background into a full-time web developer role and guided me EVERY step of the way: from outreach to interviews and offer negotiation. I can’t recommend Stephanie enough for anyone who is looking for a career coach. Her vast experience + advice are priceless, and they were key factors that helped me break into tech! She is incredibly kind, and the knowledge she has shared with me will be valuable in my career growth!

Stephanie is amazing at what she does. She provides amazing insight and outlook on the tech industry and recruiting process, and her tips were incredibly helpful to me as I shifted industries. Highly recommend!

>>Stephanie is the best!<< She guided me through my whole job-hunting process. In less than a month, I found the perfect opportunity with a great company doing something I really enjoy. She truly cares about each one of her clients. Her advice will serve me now but also in the future. Thank you Stephanie for everything!!!

Stephanie has been a *phenomenal* career coach! I can honestly say I wouldn't be in my current role without Stephanie's coaching and guidance. In addition to entirely revamping my resume and online presence, Stephanie was always a listening ear anytime I needed reassurance or general direction in what roles to apply for. From her job tracking templates to our weekly accountability check-ins, she has completely transformed my approach to job hunting!

I was job searching for almost a year before a friend introduced me to Stephanie, and I am glad they did! Stephanie's coaching, insights, and positivity were invaluable during my search. Thanks to Stephanie, I was able to revamp, refresh, and refine my approach to job hunting; and I landed a great gig! I highly recommend working with her for anyone looking to land a new role.

Stephanie is the best! She is incredibly encouraging and knowledgeable. Her guidance through what can be an intimidating job search process is priceless. She is a great listener who will be an unwavering positive presence throughout your job hunt and I can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you Stephanie! :)

Stephanie is amazing! I made a career change after spending a year learning new skills, and Stephanie's clear actionable advice about the entire process of finding a new job in a new industry was invaluable. She helped me structure my resume and work history into a coherent story, helped me find ways to discuss my value (while pushing against imposter syndrome), made sure I was keeping on top of my goals, and even did a mock-interview with me. It was really hard work, but super worth it!

I broke into the tech industry and accepted an offer with my dream company exactly 30 days after my first call with Stephanie. I had followed Stephanie on LinkedIn for months and when I was ready to get serious about making a career change from higher education into tech, I knew that she was the only person I wanted to work with. I also work as a career coach so I needed a specialist, not a generalist. Stephanie knows the tech industry inside and out and I wanted this expertise on my side. She helped me adjust my job search strategy and within days of our first call I was doubling, and soon tripling, the number of interviews I was getting each week. Stephanie is direct, encouraging, and very personalized in her approach. She focused on making sure our conversations were as productive as possible. On mock interview calls, she identified specific things I needed to adjust or strengthen. She was also really generous in leveraging her network and I gained valuable new connections in tech, thanks to her. Finally, Stephanie helped build my confidence and see that I was a competitive candidate, which is one of the most underrated benefits of working with a coach. The fine-tuning I was able to do through our work together (and all those interviews I was getting!) allowed me to nail the interview loop with my first choice company, an organization I had been targeting for about a year before working with Stephanie. Secure the bag, women. Work with Stephanie.

Stephanie’s I can not thank Stephanie enough! Her Job Search Bootcamp has drastically changed my career trajectory. Through her program, I was able to land my first full-time Project Management role after years of contracted work and I couldn't be more excited to start my new role in the next few weeks. Stephanie is an incredible and super knowledgeable coach that will provide you with all the tools you need to get you to the next step in your career! She genuinely cares about her clients and will root for you every step of the way. Thank you Stephanie!!

Stephanie is amazing! I was switching careers after 15 years in education and she helped me so much! From teaching me "tech terms" to how to source and create a pipeline, I am so thankful for her guidance. And it WORKS! Stephanie taught me skills that I was able to leverage during my interview process and they are skills I will continue to use for years to come. She is patient, communicative, and upbeat even when you inevitably encounter rejections along the way. Thank you Stephanie! 11, 2021, Liz was Stephanie’s client

Working with Stephanie was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my career! We made an immediate connection from our very first conversation. I shared my story with her and I was impressed with how she was able to translate 30 years of my experience in only two pages. With her doing this, I was able to highlight my key skill sets that showcased my worth in the DEI space. She's extremely knowledgeable in the hiring process. She's very supportive, encouraging and makes herself available. Her approach is very intentional and she makes you feel like you're the only client she's working with. Without her, I wouldn't have been able to land the role and the salary that I deserve. I highly recommend partnering with Stephanie. She is a wonderful person, an amazing coach, and worth every penny!

Working with Stephanie was one of the best investments I made for my career! She was instrumental in my job search and guided me on how to best position myself effectively for the role I wanted. Stephanie was extremely supportive and such a great listener throughout the ups and downs of the job hunt. Her program works and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a career coach who is thoughtful, knowledgeable, and will hold you accountable. Thank you, Stephanie!

Stephanie is really good at what she does! She is a wealth of knowledge on the job searching process, but she's also a coach in every sense of the word. Throughout our time working together she was supportive, encouraging, and generous with her time. She wasn't shy about redirecting and giving feedback when needed, too, and helped me change the way I view the job searching process. If you are ready to level up on the job search and put in the time to make it happen, I can't recommend Stephanie more highly.

Being on the hiring end is reminding me of the career pivot I made a couple years ago. Job hunting has an invisible playbook and it can take months to figure out if you don't have a guide. Stephanie Ciccone-Nascimento is the main reason I successfully made the transition from non-profit to tech. Follow her or even better yet, hire her to be your coach. I got my first job offer in 6 weeks.

The techniques I learned from Stephanie helped me transition out of seven years in higher education. After working with her, I received two competitive job offers in less than seven weeks. Due to her guidance, I landed an amazing opportunity - a new communications role at a thriving biotech company, where I've increased my salary by more than 30% and doubled my income in total. Stephanie gave clarity and focus to what had been an extremely challenging career transition, helping me identify and eliminate barriers to success in applying, interviewing, and negotiating an offer. I went from receiving little to no response to my applications to having several interviews a week, which helped restore my confidence in my own value as a candidate. Job coaching has given me a crucial framework for future searches, and reminded me that I am a great asset to any employer. I now have a stronger basis on which to start future job searches, or even just interview for practice. Coconut Coaching was worth the investment many times over.
