Career coaches are wonderful. They're also expensive and not available at 2am when you're staring at a job ad.
How they compare
| Career coach | Zoe | Zoe + coach plan | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Finds jobs every week | Sometimes | Yes | Yes |
| Tailors resume and cover letter | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Interview prep | Yes | Yes | Yes, plus a human session |
| Salary and offer advice | Yes | Basic | Yes |
| Available anytime | No | Yes | Yes |
| Typical price | ~$250 per session | From less than 3 lattes a month | One monthly session included |
The best of both
Most of a job search is repetitive work: finding, filtering, tailoring, tracking. Zoe handles that every week. For the big moments (a final round, a big offer, a career change) a human coach is worth it. With the Zoe + coach plan, you get both.
