CONNECT WITH ME LinkedIn:   / olivercordingley   Instagram:   / olivercordingley   ABOUT ME: I dropped out of university at 19 to build recruitment software and ATS systems used by hiring teams. For years I spoke to hundreds of hiring managers and recruiters every day, learning exactly how candidates get filtered, shortlisted, and hired from the inside. I started coaching friends through their job search using what I'd seen, then raised investment, built a software company, and hired my own team. I've seen hiring from every angle. Today I help job seekers land offers faster using a proven 3-step system. I've coached hundreds of candidates into roles at firms like JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Deloitte, EY, and PwC and many more.
