New Professionals!
How about these recent college graduates and young guns?!
"After my exams were done, I bought Andy’s program and learned everything I could from it. I reached out to a company on a Monday. They got back to me within an hour to schedule an interview. Way ahead of schedule they called to offer an entry-level position! I’m over-the-moon excited and want to thank you, Andy, for your amazing program and all the work you put into it. I 100% recommend Andy’s job search strategies to anyone who is looking for a way to step into their new career!"
--Ashley S.
"Andy, thank you so much for guiding me through this! With your coaching, I nearly doubled my salary in such a short period of time. If anyone is on the fence about getting the Boot Camp program, GET IT! It is way worth it. Andy’s lessons got me a raise in my new job that is leaps and bounds over the price I paid for the program!"
--Denisse A.
"I really cannot thank you enough for your help and what your Boot Camp has done for me! After struggling to land an internship, I joined the program and landed a full-time position by bypassing the internship process completely. Based on what I paid for the program, my ROI was 200X! This was the easiest investment I have ever made. Thank you Andy for all you do!"
--Kyle D.
"Hi Andy, I want to give you a status update. I officially signed my UPDATED OFFER and start my new position next month! THANK YOU for the coaching session. You helped me navigate my first negotiation process. While I was worried, I shouldn’t have because my new company increased my base salary by $10,000 and gave me an extra signing bonus all from me having the confidence to negotiate and ask! So I want to thank you again. I am beyond happy and excited for my new role!"
--Krystal S.
"I took your advice and made the call and spoke with them (a potential employer). I shared the news of receiving an offer from another company. I was completely taken back with the leap in their offer from $48,000 to $70,000 in only a 10-minute phone call. Thank you so much for coaching me through this and the entire job search as well. I’m so happy right now!"
--Maitrayee S.
Moving countries!
Looking for a job in a new country? Recently relocated to a new country? No problem!
"Andy, I received 2 job offers yesterday. I still can't believe this is true. Everything I learned from your teaching worked! Now, I'll be starting my first job after immigrating from the other side of the world! Even more than the job searching skills, you boosted my confidence and showed me how to get organized. I feel I gained so much more than landing a job. I have learned skills, gained confidence, changed my lifestyle, expanded my network, and belong to a community full of amazing people. I can't believe all that happened within 3 months! You and the milewalk team are just amazing."
--Tammy C.
"I moved from Europe to the US and was struggling. The first coaches I found told me I wouldn’t find what I was looking for because I worked for myself for a couple years and because I was not willing to relocate. I found Andy and he was incredibly positive and supportive in a time when I needed it most. His personal attention, support and all the helpful tips on job searching and interviewing are incredible. Most importantly, he gave me the confidence I needed to go for it and not give up in a tough process. Within 7 weeks, I had 3 job offers and just completed my first week in my dream job!
--Kathi E.
"I tried searching for a new job on my own for a year and a half. It was rather miserable because I didn’t really know how to do it. I decided to change my tactics and started to follow Andy’s videos and then joined the Boot Camp. Within a very short-period of time, I not only passed several rounds of interviews and a presentation for 30 people, but also got the job and managed to negotiate a nice salary increase!" (Germany to Switzerland!)
--Maxim P.
"Thank YOU so much, Andy. I can't thank you enough. I truly learned a lot from you because your program is amazing and awesome, which helps people pursue their own dream and goals. My life and career would have been a lot different if I had known you even a few years earlier!" (South Korea to Germany!)
--Rachael K.
Jumping back into the workforce!
Don't let a little "in-transition" period get you down. It doesn't matter if you're unemployed at the moment. You can do this!
"Just amazing. I was out of work, but joined the Boot Camp, spent time each day watching and listening to the program. It inspired me to be diligent in my search and try new (to me) and effective ways to find my dream job. As a result, I will be a site director for a large international company, which is a step up in role and responsibilities and a nearly 65% increase in salary from my previous job. Without you (Andy), the team, and the entire milewalk Academy family, I would not be as happy and joyous as I am today!"
--Joe W.
"If you are thinking about joining the Boot Camp…DO IT!! Three weeks ago I didn’t even have an updated resume and now I have a great job with a great company making $50,000 more than my last job!"
--Cassie F.

--Karen S.
Changing careers!
Think making a career change is out of reach? Think again!
"Andy, thanks to your help I’m working in a career I love!! Leaving my 16+ year career was a touch terrifying. Thanks to the guidance of this inspiring coach, I came out the other side with my only regret that I didn’t do it sooner. It’s so easy to settle out of fear on a job, but I’m so glad I took the chance. My family also personally thanks you. With your passion and expertise, I’m now enjoying more time than ever with my two boys and husband! And, much to our surprise, we didn’t have to sacrifice our financial security to do it!! I never thought I’d find a career with those perks PLUS actually loving what I do and feeling valued. Your passion is felt in every video, letter, and email. You have inspired me to continue to self-evaluate, question my “assumptions,” and continue to grow through this next phase of my career and life. Thank you again!"
--Stacy L.
"I took my time with the Boot Camp and really tried to understand the mindset behind the course. I spent a considerable amount of time revamping my LinkedIn Profile and building connections. This helped get connected with a recruiter and I moved quickly through the process. The program was worth its weight in gold. I just accepted an offer to start my dream job in a totally different field—which I never thought was possible. I want to thank Andy so much for all the resources and encouragement. I couldn’t be happier!"
--Chris C.
"Andy is start to finish and in between the best advisor, communicator, motivator and friend I have ever worked with. He gives you the tools to discover your worth and what you want in your career and guaranteed if you invest in his Boot Camp, take a lot of notes, attend his sessions, listen, work and trust the process, you will find the dream job that truly makes you happy. It worked for me! Thank you Andy!!!"
--Shari N.
"After almost 6 months out of work I got the job! And, not just any old job, but a great job with plenty of growth and opportunity! I’m a career changer, making a major pivot from rural small business to big business IT moving to the big city! I know this would not have been possible without Andy’s teachings and the of the milewalk Academy!"
--Cory S.
"Bootcamper here! For those over 50 it is no problem. It ain’t. Listen to Andy. Trifecta in job search. 1) I am over 50. 2) Changing careers. 3) Moving to a new city. I have 2 offers! If you can, take the Boot Camp. Andy’s program with the videos and templates golden and you will learn so much about how to negotiate the best offer for yourself!"
--Kelley K.
Executive? Over 50?
The Boot Camp is tailor-made for senior executives and those in the higher-age demographic! Whether you're one the other or both, you're covered!
"Andy, you helped me reconfirm what was most important to me. I used you tips in preparing, interviewing, and following. Finally, when it came to negotiating, I got a higher base, guaranteed severance package, a sign on bonus, and guaranteed first-year bonus. It’s a very healthy package! You made me believe ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. Thank you for all your help and encouragement!"
--Lora G.
"Hi Andy, Thank you so much for helping me in my job search! I spent three months trying to find a job and failed miserably. Then, after you started coaching me and I learned your process, I got 2 offers from the next 3 companies that I interviewed with. I negotiated a deal (with your help) and accepted their offer last night. I'm super excited because I love the company, I love the team, and I love the opportunity! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I couldn't have done it without you! You're awesome!"
--Kyle W.
"After underperforming in a job interview, I searched for help and luckily stumbled upon Andy’s Job Search Boot Camp. The Boot Camp decoded the art of the job search and taught me effective end-to-end skills to land a fantastic job. The program is organized, easy-to-follow and full of positive energy. It includes all the tools you need. Above all, the program is personable. I am pleased and amazed at Andy and his team’s commitment to each job seeker. During my search journey, Andy and his team quickly addressed my questions and offered advice. They followed up on my progress. I successfully landed a leadership job just after a month joining the program and following Andy’s guidance. I couldn’t have done it without the help of milewalk Academy. Thank you!"
--Debbie C.
"Based on my compensation change, my return on investment for the Boot Camp was 87X! I don’t think I could have gotten there without this program. But, money aside, there were so many valuable aspects of this program that go well beyond just job searching. Andy teaches concepts, especially as they relate to introspection, self-awareness and others that have helped me lead a more fulfilling life!"
--Mark P.
"After almost three years of searching, I finally found success! I was made an offer for a Software Project Manager job supporting learning and development for the military. The company I will be working for has been around for a while and I must say I was impressed by their response to Covid-19. The Interview Intervention book helped me prepare, as did sitting in on the many offerings Andy included in the Job Search Boot Camp. I can’t wait to get started on the next phase of my career. Thanks, everyone, at the milewalk Academy!"
--Jessica I.
"Today, I found out 35,000 people nationwide applied for the position. I know I could not have done it without you. I can never repay you or say thank you enough for bolstering the sagging confidence of this 74 year old. Andy, thank you so much to you and your team!"
--Jayme Z.
"I cannot say enough good things about Andy…I would not have been successful in my search and had all the tools and the right words and language and techniques to use if it were not for Andy’s advice and coaching and encouragement. I was just offered a job today and I’m super excited. I know it’s because of all the help I got from Andy!"
--Kathleen P.
Same company for a LONG time?
Were the dinosaurs still alive last time you changed jobs? Ha! You got this!
"Andy, after 23 years at Kellogg’s, I was downsized with 150 others. 5 weeks to the day, I landed my dream job and am in my first week of my new career! Thanks for the direction and encouragement you provide. Your direction really helped me lock in this new role quickly. Thank you VERY much. God bless you!"
--Andy R.
"Sweet Success! Thank you Andy! Keep it up! Andy's techniques and instructions work! I am 60 years old, quit my job in December to take a break and travel. Then, yikes—along came Covid—and everything changed. I have had different jobs, but in the same organization for 26 years so my resume, job searching and interviewing skills needed help! I followed Andy’s advice and the Job Search Boot Camp. I took my time and last week landed two excellent offers and had the delight of choosing the job that best fit me by utilizing the Criteria Questions Matrix in the Boot Camp I completed at the beginning of this journey. I start my new job as a Clinical Director of a Home Health Agency next week and I thank you Andy from the bottom of my heart!"
--Sonda S.
"I accepted an offer this week for a new position. After 25 years (19 years with the same company), I’ll be leaving enterprise IT for IT Consulting. I’m moving to a new city, taking on interesting new challenges, and will be working with great people. The Job Search Boot Camp and Interview Intervention were so valuable during my entire process. I cannot thank Andy enough. I’m so excited to be starting a new chapter in my career!"
--Ed D.
"Andy’s Boot Camp was a life changer for me. After being with the same company for more than 20 years, I decided to take the risk and find a new job. Andy’s program covers very practical applications in your job search whether you’re straight out of college or a very tenured professional like myself. I’ve tried different cookie-cutter, job-search approaches but Andy’s Bootcamp is far so far from that. You will get real-world tactics that actually work!"
--Raul T.
And a host of more wonderfulness!
The truth is sometimes we're facing all kinds of challenges. Whatever your issues are, just like these people, the Boot Camp can help you!
"I joined the Boot Camp for help with resume and interviewing, but didn't realize how much more went into a successful job search. Andy's approach provided the tools I needed, but more importantly, gave me the clarity and confidence to use them effectively. I landed a terrific role at the company I'd been targeting for years as a result. Grateful for Andy and the bootcamp community!"
--Larry D.
"I used Andy’s Boot Camp to articulate my professional goals, update my resume, and refine my interviewing skills. Fast forward...past 2 days of interviews with a total of 10 partners and 2 associates. Grand total of 4 weeks of time. Yesterday, I accepted an offer at an excellent law firm. And, I used Andy’s “letter of resignation” template to resign from my current job! I start my new job in a few weeks. Thank you Andy!"
--Scholastica B.
"Hey Andy, I just got an amazing job offer and I start Monday! 25% higher than my last job and in a more desirable field of tax. Started the challenge in the Boot Camp on July 30th and begin my new job on August 12th! Thank you!"
--Ben H.
"Andy was there from day one. I had to do the work and with Andy in my corner, providing the tools, guidance, support, and motivation, I am in my dream job!! Having gained the confidence and clarity to know what I really wanted and deserved in my next role, I passed on two job offers, that didn't quite hit the mark, to accept a position that I absolutely love. Coach Andy even helped me negotiate a sign-on bonus and other benefits. Andy gets to know YOU. He really cares and gives his all every day to his Bootcampers. You will love this program!"
--Connie C.
"Andy, I need to testify! Ok, so at first I was discouraged with the whole ATS thing, and fell down the rabbit hole of scanning my resume to death in order to meet the ATS criteria. You said to stop, so I did, but only after failing miserably, over and over again. I went back to the resume you had worked on with me, highlighted my experience in the areas I wanted to work in opposed to trying to fit in, and pretty much said, “This is it.” Fast forward, sent it out, got and crushed the interview, staying focused and use the tactics you taught in Interview Intervention, received and accepted offer! By the way, based on the requirements you had laid out for us to document for targeting companies, this company scored #1. Best Job, Best Organization... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! You are the man! Thank you!"
--Gabe D.
"About 8 months ago I used the Boot Camp and Andy’s framework to secure my dream job. Sadly, the position is no more due to company restructure because of COVID. I’m thrilled to say I just jumped back into the program and now I have accepted a new position! THANK YOU to Andy for giving me the right tools, mindset, and confidence to go out there and bag myself another brilliant opportunity!"
--Kirsty B.
