How will your Israeli job hunt look?

Job-hunter A:

Sends hundreds of resumes but doesn’t hear back from ANYONE. Finally gets an interview and reluctantly accepts a job they don’t love. 🙁

Job-hunter B:

Has a clear job search plan. Applies for a best-fit position, nails the interview, negotiates an excellent salary, and loves going to work every day! 😊

Save months of headache — and heartache.

With the right mindset and tools, you CAN land a job (and salary) you love.

Hi, I’m Mandi. It’s nice to meet you.

Let’s just say I’ve been in your shoes more than once. I successfully navigated the Israeli job market with no network but with clarity, purpose and a lot of motivation.


Ultimately, I spent the best part of 15 years working in HR and recruitment for large hi-tech companies, interviewing, hiring, and onboarding hundreds of employees.


Those years on the other side of the desk gave me HUGE insight into two things:

Now, I have taken my experience and research to help job seekers (especially baffled-by-the-system Olim) land their dream positions in hitech. And I can’t wait to help you do the same!

I’m sure you’ve got questions. And I’ve got answers

Of course, and good for you for being proactive and thinking ahead. There are plenty of ways you can prepare for the job hunt from outside of Israel. And now, more than ever, employers are often willing to interview candidates over Zoom. So be in touch and we can get the ball rolling.
I’m as straight as an arrow. I’d never promise something I can’t be sure of. But I can promise this: Through working together, you’ll get the tools and confidence to find a job that you’ll excel at. You will need to commit to putting in the time and effort to implement what we work on. But I’ve witnessed time and time again, that anyone who is proactive and committed has opportunities opening up to them, far quicker than they expected.
Think about it as a short-term investment for a long-term gain. Put in the time now and save weeks, months, even years(!) of time wasted in a wrong-fit job down the line. Plus, we don’t wait until the end of the program to start your job search. We do it together within the program. Based on over 20 years of experience, believe me when I say your future self will thank you 🙂.
Organizations offer a lot of helpful information and resources, and that’s a great place to start. (If you are still eligible for their help). But if you’re serious about accelerating your job search, you’ll benefit most from personalized attention and tailored advice informed by 15 years of experience and expertise.
Over the years, people have told me this: Through working with me, they uncovered something in themselves they previously couldn’t see. My intuitive ability to see people’s strengths, paired with my panoramic view of the Israeli job landscape, means you’ll get a new insight into who you are and how this translates into a lucrative career. Often it takes an unbiased outsider looking in to get that clarity. But if you can DIY, then go for it 😉.
My approach to career coaching is “holistic” and polishing your resume is one (albeit important) part of the picture. I’m happy to refer you to professionals who will help you spruce up your resume.
The market is full of skilled coaches of all stripes and types. So how do you know if I’m the right person for you? If you’re:
  • Proactive and ready to roll up your sleeves
  • Open to digging deep and exploring your mindset
  • Motivated to implement the practical steps that will lead to your dream job
Then we’re a great fit!

I can help you move into hitech if you have the relevant skills. If you’re not sure if hitech is for you, let’s talk.

If you have ever asked yourself...

“What jobs should I apply for?”

“Should I consider a new career path at my stage in life?” 

“What are my strengths?”

“Do I have the right experience or skills?” 

“Why am I sending my resume to hundreds of openings and not getting interviews?”

“What salary should I expect? (Can I really ask for that much!?)”
