You paid for the degree.
This is how you protect that investment.
You spent years and significant resources getting into the right school. The hard part isn't over. The job market is one of the most competitive in decades. Career coaching isn't a luxury anymore. It's the bridge between the degree and the outcome you worked for.
The college career center isn't enough. Overextended and under-resourced, they provide generic advice to hundreds of students simultaneously. You deserves individual attention from someone who has actually been where you’re trying to go.
—
The market has fundamentally changed. AI is eliminating entry-level roles. Application volumes have exploded. Standing out now requires a real strategy, not just a good résumé.
—
The first job sets the trajectory. Where you start, and how you show up, compounds over the next decade. Getting it right at the beginning is worth more than almost anything else.
—
I've been exactly where you are. In a harder market. Without a coach. I know what works and I'll work with you until you have an offer you’re proud of.

The increase in job seekers’ likelihood to find a job within 90 days when working with a career coach.
“The old parental anxiety over getting the kids into college has been followed by a new one: getting the kids a job after graduation.”
Why The Precedent?
I graduated into the worst job market in a generation. I know how to navigate these turbulent times and I want to share with you how I did it.
The job market you’re entering right now is being compared to 2009. I know what that looks like from the inside. I lived it without a coach and without support.
What I built wasn't luck. It was strategy: how to position yourself, how to network with intention, how to walk into any room and be taken seriously. I've spent almost 20 years refining those strategies.
That's why I founded The Precedent. Not to give generic career advice. To hand over the real playbook. The one nobody gave me.
I’d love to work together to help you get the right start.
