Whether you want to find a new job or level-up where you’re currently working, the first step is to know what would fulfill you.

—What drives you?
—What excites you?

These answers inform your career moves
…and they’re almost impossible to answer on your own.

That’s where I come in.

Let’s define what career success means for you.

Hi! I’m…

Annette Garsteck

I am a Master Professional Career Coach, Senior Professional Résumé Writer, former Fortune 50 hiring leader, author, and speaker. I help ambitious women develop, manage, and advance their careers with intention, strategy, and confidence.

For more than 15 years, I worked inside Fortune 50 companies and world-class healthcare organizations as a hiring manager and people leader. I hired, promoted, coached, and evaluated talent. I understand how decisions are made, how visibility works, and what truly positions professionals for advancement.

Today, I bring that insider perspective to the women I serve.

On a personal note…

I’m a proud Greater Clevelander, dog mom to Claire, and believer that ambition and authenticity can coexist.

Women deserve to be paid well.
They deserve influence.
They deserve a strategy.

Ready to Take Control?

If you are ready to move intentionally instead of reactively, let’s talk. Schedule a Reinvent Your Career Strategy Session and take the next bold step in your career.

Where Are You In Your Career?

I’m looking to better manage and grow my career.

You’re in growth mode
and are interested in managing your career proactively instead of
waiting to be noticed.

I’m actively looking to make a career transition.

Change is calling.
You want to find more meaningful work, pivot industries, earn your worth, and maximize your efforts.

“It’s official. I start my new job on the 28th. Woohoo!”
