I began working with Shift Group during my final year of college hockey, knowing I’d eventually need to transition out of sports. After finishing my pro career, I leaned on everything I learned from the course to break into a new career. With awesome support from my coach, George, I landed a great job, and I can’t recommend Shift Group enough!

Shift Group was instrumental in helping me land my first BDR role at Astronomer. From the very beginning, I felt supported and guided by a team that genuinely cared about my success. The quality of the educational content gave me a real edge in understanding what it takes to succeed. I genuinely couldn’t recommend Shift Group highly enough!

I came across Shift on LinkedIn and thought it was worth a shot, especially since it is totally free for candidates. They have so many careers to choose from, but when I saw that the company leadership was primarily comprised of veterans of the SaaS sales space, I thought I should check that out. I can’t recommend Shift enough to any of my fellow vets who might still be wondering what they are going to do when they get out.

In the modern age of LinkedIn “easy apply” and never hearing back, Shift Group is a game changer. From their training to coaching, every step of the way they prepare you for success with in depth actionable steps to set yourself apart. I ended up getting offers from 2 of the 3 companies I interviewed with. The entire process took only about 2 weeks from start to finish!

After years of focusing on athletic excellence, I struggled to channel that drive into something new—until I found Shift Group. They helped me turn my athlete mindset into a business advantage. I couldn’t recommend Shift Group more enthusiastically. They don’t just help you find a job; they help you build a meaningful career worthy of your talents and ambition.
