The Problem with Career Coaching (It's Expensive)
Professional career coaching can cost $150-$500 per hour. LinkedIn profile reviews run $200-$500 per session. Resume writers charge $300-$800 per document.
For most students and early-career professionals, that's simply out of reach.
LinkedinForge was built to close that gap.

- Profile optimization — Making your LinkedIn profile recruiter-friendly
- Messaging — Writing compelling outreach and follow-up messages
- Job application materials — Resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn summaries
