On Career Coaching Secrets, host Rexhen Doda interviews Yuri Kagan, a creative recruiter, seasoned career coach, and "portfolio whisperer" for designers. With a deep background in ad agencies and in-house studio roles, Yuri shares his unconventional journey into recruiting and coaching, driven by a desire to help the "underdog" and his blunt, honest communication style.
Discover Yuri's unique approach to career coaching, honed from years as a high-volume recruiter in Silicon Valley. He focuses on "repackaging talent" for individuals in creative roles (UX AI, copywriting, SEO) and beyond, helping them understand their true value and navigate today's challenging market. Learn about his non-traditional lead generation strategies, relying heavily on word-of-mouth, social media content, and direct, candid feedback in online discussions. Yuri also discusses the importance of internal company dynamics in job searching, the value of charging for services, and the pitfalls of enabling clients.
