Overview
Krunal had built a solid foundation as a program manager, leading complex software and hardware delivery over six years. But as he looked ahead, he wanted more—a chance to apply his experience at a larger scale inside a high-growth tech company.
The path forward wasn’t straightforward. Despite his experience, he wasn’t getting traction and the search started to feel uncertain.
The Challenge
Krunal struggled to gain momentum in his search. He found it difficult to identify the right opportunities and wasn’t getting consistent traction with applications.
On top of that, he needed to focus on companies that could sponsor his work visa, which narrowed his options further. A few unsuccessful interviews also made it clear that his approach needed to change.
The Shift
Instead of continuing with the same approach, Krunal became more intentional about what he was targeting and how he showed up in the process.
He clarified his criteria early—focusing on company type, growth stage and scope—and used that as a filter for opportunities. He also spent time improving how he communicated his experience, especially in interviews, refining both structure and delivery.
As the search progressed, he adjusted his strategy along the way, testing different approaches and building confidence through repetition and feedback.
The Outcome
Within the program, Krunal began getting traction with top-tier tech companies. He ultimately received three offers—all stronger than what he initially expected.
He accepted a technical program manager position at Peloton, a high-growth consumer tech company that aligned with his goals across scope, impact, culture and compensation.
Beyond the offer itself, the process positioned him for a more intentional and accelerated career path.
“Not only was I getting a great new job, but I was also getting on the right path for a more intentional career.” — Krunal N.
How This Result Was Achieved
This outcome came from narrowing the focus of the search and building consistency in how Krunal approached it. By getting clear on what mattered, improving how he communicated his experience and staying adaptable through setbacks, he was able to turn early friction into multiple strong opportunities.
