Hi, I'm Nick.
Over seven years in HR, as HR Manager and Head of People, more than 1,000 interviews conducted, over 100 people hired. I share that knowledge now, honestly and without detours: what recruiters actually see, what counts, and what's holding you back right now.

The job market in Frankfurt am Main
Frankfurt is Germany's financial center: the European Central Bank, the Deutsche Bundesbank, and Deutsche Börse are headquartered here, alongside Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank, and DekaBank, plus dozens of international law firms and consultancies. I worked as Head of People at DekaBank myself, so I know the hiring processes inside these firms firsthand. Applications at Frankfurt corporates almost always run through multi-stage assessment centers and structured interviews, and the competition is international. Standing out here means having a clean LinkedIn profile: it's the first place the headhunters filling Frankfurt leadership roles look.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the coaching happen in person in Frankfurt?
The coaching itself runs online via video call, which works just as well as meeting in person and fits flexibly around your schedule. For the Career Kick-off of the 1:1 coaching, we're also happy to meet in person at a café in Frankfurt if you'd prefer, since I'm based here myself.
Who is the coaching in Frankfurt especially suited for?
Mainly professionals and executives from banks, consultancies, and corporate headquarters who need to hold their own in multi-stage selection processes against international competition. That's exactly the environment I know from my own time as Head of People at DekaBank.
Are you a recruitment agency or headhunter, like many others in Frankfurt?
No. Recruitment agencies and headhunters work for companies trying to fill a role. I work exclusively for you as the applicant. My assessment is never influenced by which company pays me, because none of them do.
Will my current employer in Frankfurt find out about the coaching?
No. In an industry as tightly connected as Frankfurt finance, where many firms and executives know each other, discretion matters a lot to me: no sharing of your data, no contact with third parties without your explicit consent.
What does the first step cost in Frankfurt?
Nothing. The CV checklist as a PDF and the 30-minute Career Quick Check are completely free. Only after that do you decide whether a digital product or 1:1 career coaching makes sense for you.
I'm not actively job hunting in Frankfurt right now. Is this still useful?
Yes. The best time to get your CV and LinkedIn profile in shape is before you need them, and in a fast-moving environment like Frankfurt's financial sector, that can change quickly.
How does the first contact work?
Most people start with the free CV checklist or go straight for the 30-minute Career Quick Check. After that, we figure out together, with no obligation, what makes sense next.
Are you a certified career coach?
No, and that's deliberate. I'm not a trained coach, I'm someone who has personally sat on the hiring side of over 1,000 interviews and made real hiring decisions. That's practice, not theory about how applications are supposed to work.
