About Jared
I’m Jared Redick. My career began in retained executive search in New York and San Francisco, where I evaluated candidates for Fortune 500 companies and major law firms. Over nearly thirty years, I’ve advised roughly 2,800 professionals—from rising leaders and mid-career professionals to founders, C-suite executives, and board directors—as they navigate growth and change.
For Individuals and Leaders
Résumé-Led Career Strategy
At The Redick Group, a résumé is much more than a document used to apply for jobs. I use résumé writing and LinkedIn profile development as an intensive career coaching and decision-making process for:
clarifying career goals
testing readiness against what the market requires
identifying and making an evidence-based case for professional value
building a cohesive narrative for career moves, and the ones that follow
preparing for interviews and other consequential career conversations
I offer three paths through this résumé-led career strategy:
one for professionals pursuing a clearly defined next step
one for those integrating two to three viable career directions into a single, cohesive narrative
one for professionals who are career curious—open to exploring roles or directions they haven't yet considered
Each path combines career research and decision-making with live, collaborative résumé writing and varying degrees of LinkedIn profile development.
Board Director Branding & Readiness
Preparing for board service requires a distinct understanding of governance value, board fit, and how nominating committees and retained search firms assess candidates. I work with veteran directors and first-time candidates to evaluate readiness, define the boards they’re equipped to serve, and develop a credible board-facing narrative and suite of materials. Explore board director branding and readiness. →
Focused Career Coaching
Need an experienced, objective thought partner without a writing engagement? Career coaching sessions provide focused time to pressure-test a decision, prepare for an interview or offer conversation, explore a career transition, or think more deliberately about a long-term direction. These sessions stand alone and include no written deliverables. Explore reality-focused career coaching and book a session. →
Prefer to start independently? Use my do-it-yourself Job Description Analysis (JDA) to explore a career direction, test your readiness against real-world requirements, and identify gaps between where you are and where you want to go. Complete it independently, then book an interpretation session if you’d like help understanding what your findings may reveal. Explore the JDA. →
For Organizations
Talks, Workshops & Training
I deliver practical, research-informed talks and workshops that help students and professionals understand résumé strategy, career transitions, professional positioning, and the changing ways people and technology evaluate talent. Programs are available for universities, professional associations, and other institutions, either remotely or in person. Explore talks, workshops, and customized training. →
Brand Development for Professional Services Firms
I also help boutique professional services firms clarify their positioning, structure their offerings, and translate complex expertise into a credible, cohesive brand. This work is especially well suited to founders and firms whose value depends on human expertise, judgment, and trust. Explore brand development for professional services firms. →
Common Questions
Where should a new client begin?
Start with the service path that most closely matches your immediate need. Résumé-led career strategy is designed for professionals developing their positioning narrative and materials; board readiness supports current and aspiring directors; focused career coaching provides strategic thinking without written deliverables.
Do you offer standalone career coaching?
Yes. Standalone career coaching sessions can be used for career decisions, interview preparation, offer evaluation, transitions, executive-search preparation, and other consequential professional questions. These sessions include no written deliverables.
Can I begin without committing to a larger engagement?
Yes. You can book a standalone career coaching session or begin independently with the Job Description Analysis. If that work reveals a need for deeper research, positioning, or document development, we can consider an appropriate next step.
Do you work with companies and institutions?
Yes. I provide brand-development consulting for boutique professional services firms and talks, workshops, and training for universities, professional associations, and other institutions.
