Job Search Reset: Interview and positioning coaching for your job search.
This program is built for professionals in an active job search who feel stuck, whether that's early applications going quiet, interviews that don't progress, or final rounds that don't convert. If you're ready to sharpen how you tell your story, hold your own under pressure, and make your value clear to a hiring team, this is the work we'll do together. I spent 25 years in HR at Pfizer, most of it in talent and career growth, and I've since coached professionals through 600+ hours of career transitions and job searches. What that's taught me is that people rarely get stuck because they're not capable. They get stuck because no one has helped them see their own story clearly enough to tell it with confidence. That's the work we'll do together. You will receive: • Ten private 1:1 coaching sessions over about three months • Energy Leadership Index (ELI) assessment, which shows how you tend to handle stress and pressure, plus a Self-Sabotage assessment that surfaces patterns that may be getting in your own way in the search. Both are debriefed early on so we can work with them for the rest of the program • Optional Career Explorer and Whole Brain Thinking (HBDI) assessments, if you want to go deeper • Two full mock interviews with direct, specific feedback • A full resume and LinkedIn revision • Light between session support for quick questions and follow through Some of the common coaching activities included in this package are: • An exercise to map out where things currently stand across different parts of your search, so we know where to focus first • An exercise to sharpen how you identify what a hiring team needs and how you position yourself to meet it • Naming the patterns that quietly work against you in your search, then building a steadier way through them • Turning your work history into career stories that land as evidence, not a list, through a compelling career stories exercise • Building resume impact statements that back up the story you're telling • A LinkedIn profile makeover to bring your online presence in line with your interview story • Practicing how to answer high pressure questions without losing your footing • Strengthening how you advocate for yourself, without it feeling like bragging
What's included
My coaching is direct and grounded. We use real assessment data and real interview experience, not generic scripts, to find out exactly where you're stuck, then we practice it until it holds up under pressure. - Scheduling and timeline: This package is designed to be completed within 3 to 4 months. - Between session support: Includes email support between sessions, with a 48 hour response time. Response time: I respond within 2 business days, often sooner. Messages received on weekends are answered the next business day. - Debrief preparation: Your package includes assessment debrief preparation. To get the most value, please complete your assessments by the agreed deadlines so I can review and prepare.
- Stronger, more specific career stories that demonstrate clear evidence of impact, not just a list of what you did
- Energy Leadership Index (ELI) assessment, showing how you tend to handle stress and pressure, so you can stay grounded in high stakes interviews and tough negotiations
- Self-Sabotage assessment, surfacing patterns like procrastinating on applications or downplaying your experience, so we can work with them instead of around them
- Enhanced interview skills with tailored coaching and practice sessions.
- A resume and LinkedIn profile that support the story you're telling in interviews
- A clearer, calmer way to advocate for yourself under pressure
- Strategic job search plan leveraging your network and targeting ideal companies.
- Effective networking strategy to build and nurture professional relationships.
- Optional Career Explorer and Whole Brain Thinking (HBDI) assessments, if you want to go deeper

Career clarity + strategy for pivots, promotions, and first jobs.
Hi, I’m Johanna Danaher. I’m a coach, a former people leader, and someone who has always been drawn to the ocean. I grew up in New York, spent my summers in Maine, and went to college in Maine. That coastal rhythm shaped me. It is probably why my work is all about helping people stay steady while they are in motion. I started out in marine biology before taking an unexpected turn into HR and leadership development. What connects those worlds is curiosity and pattern spotting. In science, you learn to observe what is happening beneath the surface, look for signals, and adjust based on what you find. That is how I coach, too. For 25 plus years at Pfizer, I led work in culture, talent, and career growth. I built and scaled programs that supported early talent, internal mobility, and leader development across a global organization. Now I bring that blend of strategy and humanity to coaching across career transitions, leadership growth, and life redesign, because most turning points touch more than one part of life. On the personal side, I’m a mom to a college aged daughter who keeps me laughing and grounded. Clients often describe me as calm, direct, and deeply supportive. We will name what is real, get clear about what matters, and build a plan you can actually follow.
