"Rajeev is one of the sharpest career strategists I know in UX. If you're struggling to get traction in the job market, this masterclass is worth your time."
-Christopher Nguyen | Founder, UX Playbook
If you are sending applications every week and getting ZERO responses, your resume isn't the problem. Your math is.
The "Industrial-Age" effort of job hunting is actively destroying your career capital. You’ve been told that if you just update your case studies, take one more AI tool course, and blast your generic resume to jobs you THINK are a fit, you will eventually get hired.
This is a mathematical trap. You are feeding yourself into an HR furnace built specifically to delete you.
Hiring managers in 2026 are not looking to sift through 500 "passionate" applicants to find a mythical unicorn. They are looking for a reliable, immediate remedy to a highly specific, very expensive business bleed.
Right now, effort is everywhere. True strategic alignment is vanishingly rare.
In this exclusive 2-hour live event, I am tearing down the old playbook. I am going to hand you the exact mechanical and economic framework to position yourself as an indispensable asset to the people who actually sign the checks.
⚠️ NEW BOOK ALERT ⚠️
Register and INSTANTLY Get Chapter 1 of my upcoming book!
(Exclusive Pre-Release!)
Before the book hits the shelves, you get the foundational chapter for FREE just for securing your seat.
Inside Chapter 1, you will discover the fundamental economic shift from being a "Cost Center" (a discretionary expense that gets cut) to a "Profit Center" (a mandated necessity a company cannot afford to lose).
Read this BEFORE we go live on March 13th so you are primed for the deep-dive strategy.
What We Are Building Together on March 13th
Here is the 3-part system we will unpack live:
Target Selection
Stop applying to companies that can't afford you.
I will show you how to use the 2x2 Market Map to stop competing for "Discretionary" roles and start targeting the "Mandated Budgets" (Healthcare, Finance, GovTech).
Plus: The exact math behind local arbitrage that instantly deletes 95% of your global competition.
Asset Translation
CFOs and VPs don't buy tools or empathy. They buy risk mitigation and operational efficiency.
I will show you how to strip the "UX Speak" from your resume and replace it with the Cost of Inaction, proving the financial risk the company faces by not hiring you.
Plus: What to say when you don't have the data, metrics, or impact from a project.
Search & Infiltration
How are the best roles actually filled?
Hint: It’s not the LinkedIn job board.
I will give you the exact mechanics to reverse-search tech stacks, execute the "48-Hour Strike," and deploy the Multi-Channel Double-Tap so you bypass external recruiters entirely.
Plus: If you are cold-applying, I'll give you the exact checklist BEFORE you execute this blindly.
