A 90-DAY EXECUTIVE SEARCH PROGRAM FROM OPTIMIZED CAREER SOLUTIONS
Get in front of the people who hire, before the role is ever posted.
The Executive Search Playbook puts a two-coach team, a sourced pipeline of decision-makers, and interview-by-interview strategy behind your search for 90 days. You stop competing in the application funnel and start getting referred.
Backed by our 90-day interview guarantee. At least one real interview inside your 90 days, or another 60 days with us, free.
We work with a limited number of executives at a time, so space is limited.
5,000+ professionals and leaders coached. 500,000+ resumes screened. 98% land interviews in 2 to 3 months.
3 payments of $2,499. Other payment options: $6,997 one time or 6 payments of $1,297.
What changes in 90 days
Most executive searches stall in the same place. Applications go out, silence comes back, and the roles that matter get filled through people you haven't met yet.

The Playbook flips that. Your brand tells the right story. We source 100 verified decision-makers a month who can actually hire you, and hand you the messaging to reach them. Your applications run without your hours. And every interview gets its own strategy before you walk in.
That's what happens when positioning, access, and preparation stop being three separate problems you're solving alone.
You don't get a platform. You get us.
OCS is Jack and Kara Dennison. Between us we've coached more than 5,000 professionals and leaders from stuck to hired.
Kara is SPHR-certified, a CPRW, and a Forbes contributor who spent 15+ years as an executive recruiter and has screened over 500,000 resumes. She knows how search firms find, filter, and choose candidates, because she was the one doing it. Jack is a certified resume writer and Encouragement Consultant, having coached thousands through a successful search. He leads strategy and sits with you on the calls that matter.
You work with both of us, matched to whoever fits the situation in front of you. Not a queue, not a script, not a junior coach assigned to your account.

From stuck to hired
"I had been job searching for over a year with no luck, only 3 interviews. I connected with Kara and they helped me rewrite my resume and highlight my accomplishments. I'm not exaggerating when I say I started going on 3 interviews a week. I got 2 VERY strong offers and finally landed my dream job. If you need help on your career journey, partner with Kara and her team, they are well worth the investment."
Tabitha, Recruiter
"Jack goes far beyond resume writing. He helped me clarify my positioning, articulate my experience in a way that resonated with the external market, and build a clear narrative. He challenged my thinking and provided practical guidance on how to create momentum in my search."
Natalie W., Finance Executive
"Kara successfully helped me execute a complete professional rebrand. Her keen acumen and refreshingly straightforward coaching were instrumental in helping me swiftly secure my current role, which has proven to be one of the best of my career."
Kevin M., Scientific Industry Executive
A few things worth saying plainly
"Couldn't I run this myself?"
You could run the applications if you want to spend 15-30 minutes per application. What you can't do alone is source 100 verified decision-makers a month, build a full strategy packet inside 48 hours of flagging an interview, and coach yourself through a negotiation. That's the part that decides the outcome, and it's the part we run for you.
"Is the investment justified?"
Every month a senior search drags on is a month of income you're not earning. The Playbook saves executive job seekers between 8-20 hours a week on their search, and decreases the length of their search. And, because negotiation coaching is built in, the increase we help you capture on a single offer can add more than the program costs.
"What if it doesn't work?"
You get at least one real interview inside your 90 days, or you get another 60 days with us, free. That's up to five months of hands-on support. We won't promise you an offer, because nobody honest can. We'll get you in the room, and everything we do is built to help you win it.
"How fast does this start?"
Right away. You'll get your targeting form and your Clarity Call booking link as soon as you enroll. Send the form back within 48 hours and we'll start building profile. Once you have your branding session and we optimize your LinkedIn, we'll have the engine up and running within 1 week which is when your 90 days officially starts.
The right role is already out there. It just hasn't met you yet.
You've got the record. What you've been missing is a system that puts it in front of the people who decide, and a team that prepares you for every conversation once it does.
That's the Playbook. Ninety days, two coaches, and a 90-day interview guarantee behind it. We work with a limited number of executives at a time, so space is limited.
