If you're a Director, VP, or other professional who's been job searching for 60+ days and still hearing silence — I can tell you exactly why, and exactly what to do about it.
For over 20 years I've been the recruiter who decided your fate in six seconds. I know exactly what makes hiring managers skip a resume — or move fast on a candidate.
I've also been laid off five times. I know what it feels like to apply endlessly and hear nothing. That's why I built the Job Search Clinic — a strategy grounded in what actually works right now, taught directly through this site.
"The problem isn't your effort or your resume. It's that you don't have a cohesive strategy built on what works in today's market."

Testimonial
I recently attended a one-on-one job search clinic with Gisele Cloutier, and I can honestly say it was one of the most detailed and impactful sessions I've experienced...every part of it was intentional, practical, and incredibly insightful. What stood out most was how she broke down the realities of today's job market, what actually works, what doesn't, and how hiring decisions are really made behind the scenes. This wasn't generic advice. It was a clear, structured strategy that helped me rethink how I approach everything from applications to networking.
She helped me understand how to properly structure my resume, focusing on what's relevant. I truly understood how to create a cover letter that actually adds value. She also showed me how to make myself memorable through networking without coming across as pushy, which completely changed my perspective. And one of my favorite takeaways was learning how to approach compensation negotiations using real data instead of guesswork.
Overall, my biggest takeaway is that job searching is a skill, and like any skill, it requires a good strategy, time, intention, and consistent practice. That mindset shift alone was incredibly powerful, and it's something I plan to carry forward.
I left the session feeling more focused, more confident, and most importantly, equipped with a plan I can actually execute. If you're serious about your job search and tired of spinning your wheels, I would highly recommend working with Gisele.
