The Programme

Six sessions, six key milestones.

Career Clarity — 6 Session Core Programme

The sessions are sequential by design, each one resting on the work of the one before. Every session ends with something built, not just something discussed.

Where are you actually heading, and why?

Core Outcome A validated career direction, your non-negotiables reviewed and a clear understanding on the drivers behind your next move
2

Strategic Positioning

Defining your market positioning and undertaking a key strengths audit.

Core Outcome A defined market position and a value proposition you can deliver effortlessly, evidenced by your own track record
3

Go-to-Market Strategy

Get clear on your execution plan.

Core Outcome A tailored strategy in line with your career goals and key objectives
4

Job Search Toolkit

Frame your experience around your direct impact and value.

Core Outcome A rebuilt, ATS-ready CV and a LinkedIn profile that surfaces you in the right searches, and where relevant and where there is a genuine fit, an introduction to companies and recruiters in Claudia's network

6 Sessions
Career Clarity
Core Programme
AED 3,900

For the professional who knows it is time to move and wants to do it properly rather than quickly. Six sessions covering direction, positioning, your documents, your target list and interview practice, finishing with an honest review of what the market told us.

8 Sessions
Career Elevation Package
AED 5,000

Everything in Career Clarity, with room to go deeper where it counts. For most people that means confidence, presence and the internal story that quietly holds them back. Two additional sessions, shaped around what surfaces as we work together.

10 Sessions
Career Transformation Package
AED 6,000

The core six, plus four sessions of support once you are live in the market. This is where salary conversations, second interviews and competing offers get worked through with someone who has sat on the hiring side of all three.

12 Sessions
Career Mastery Package
AED 6,900

The most comprehensive option, and a longer term working partnership. This is where the search needs sustained attention over months rather than weeks. Twelve sessions, used as and when you need them, with the remaining six sessions shaped around your job search rather than a set programme.

Every package starts with the same six sessions from the core programme, Career Clarity. Elevation, Transformation and Mastery packages then add two, four or six more sessions, spent on whatever your job search brings up, with steady support through the middle stretch. We decide together as we go.

Standalone Session

90-Minute Career Focus Session

Not ready to commit to a full programme? Ninety minutes on the one thing that is blocking you right now. No preamble, no discovery phase.

  • Interview preparation and mock interview practice
  • CV and LinkedIn review and refinement
  • Career direction, clarity and next steps
  • Job search strategy and UAE market navigation
  • Any career focal point of your choosing

One session. One problem. Something to act on.

Online Workshop

Job Search Strategy & Positioning — 4-Week Online Workshop

📅 Once a week for 4 weeks ⏱ 90-minute sessions 💰 AED 800 per person 🗓 Starting in September

A structured, four-week programme designed to move you from uncertainty to clarity, from invisible to positioned, and from reactive to strategic in your job search.

1
Career Clarity & Direction

Where are you actually heading, and why? Week one validates your direction so your entire search is built on solid foundations rather than reaction.

2
Mindset Shifts

What story are you telling yourself about your chances? Week two surfaces the limiting beliefs quietly running your search and replaces them with the confidence and resilience to keep going, when it gets really hard.

3
Strategic Positioning

Do you know what genuinely sets you apart in your market? Week three works that out, sharpens it, and turns it into a short, specific claim you can say out loud in an interview or write at the top of your CV, so a hiring manager understands your worth in seconds.

4
Job Search Toolkit

Is your CV telling the right story, and is your LinkedIn doing any of the heavy lifting at all? Week four is a focused, practical review, ensuring your experience is framed around impact, your positioning is consistent across every channel and recruiters can actually find you.
