About Get Her Hired
Get Her Hired exists to make sure good people’s work gets seen, valued, and paid what it’s worth.
We build the materials that move careers forward: résumés, executive bios, LinkedIn profiles, and one-page briefs that read like strategy, not self-promotion. Our clients don’t need a “personal brand.” They need language that matches their leadership and proof that holds up in the boardroom.
We work with senior leaders who are ready for what’s next: a bigger role, a new challenge, or the visibility their results have earned. Together, we turn complex, multi-chapter careers into clear, decision-ready stories that get people noticed, trusted, and called back.
Every Get Her Hired project starts with listening. Too many people have had other people write their story for far too long: getting pigeonholed, passed over, or told they’re “too valuable where they are” to move up. Too many fricking awesome people have never had their stories truly heard or reflected back in a way that feels right to them. That changes here.
Our process is fast, collaborative, and unapologetically focused on results. We combine executive-level storytelling with data, strategy, and market insight to create clarity that drives opportunities. For eligible packages, we back it all with a 90-day traction guarantee, because progress shouldn’t depend on luck.
What We Stand For
Radical Inclusion and Real Belief in Your Greatness
We believe in you. Your career is more than a job. It’s your livelihood, your future, and your impact on the world. No one’s limited worldview will ever stand in the way of your legacy and potential. Not here.
Career Empowerment Without Barriers
Whether you’re stepping into leadership for the first time or claiming your next big role, we help you shine. We don’t just write résumés; we amplify voices, validate ambition, and build materials that open doors.
Doing Good Work, Always
Excellence is the baseline. Every career we touch represents a life, a dream, and a future, and we treat it that way. Our work is about more than documents; it’s about dignity, respect, and empowerment.
Giving Back and Lifting Up
We give wherever we can: free resources, mentoring, pro bono services. We believe success multiplies when it’s shared. We rise by lifting others.
Love and Dignity for All
Our foundation is respect. Equity and inclusion mean holding space for humanity in all its complexity, not just for those who agree with us.
Breaking Through Limits and Translating Brilliance
We know what it feels like to be underestimated. We help you translate your expertise into the language others recognize, so your value is impossible to miss.
Our Promise
We will never water down your power.
We will never let bias dictate your story.
We will always show up, do the work, and push for a world where your talent is seen, valued, and fairly rewarded.
At Get Her Hired, we don’t just help people get interviews.
We help them name and claim the futures they deserve.
And if that kind of energy isn’t your vibe, that’s okay. There are other great companies out there. We’ll be just fine over here, rewriting the rules.
Kate Wade, Founder
Kate Wade built Get Her Hired for people who already lead, and are done sounding smaller than they are.
Before founding the company, Kate ran global strategy for a $2B business inside an $11B Fortune 200 enterprise. Her office was where the real conversations happened: promotion cases, board decks, pay equity, and how to finally get the credit you’ve earned. When her role was cut in a reorg, the line to that door didn’t disappear, it followed her, and it started paying. That became Get Her Hired.
Her path wasn’t straight, and that’s the point. She studied literature and languages, began a PhD, and dropped out when she realized she wanted to do the work, not just study it. She’s worked in global corporations, nonprofit arts, and coaching. She’s been laid off, quit on principle, and rebuilt more than once. Through every chapter, the pattern held: language is leverage.
Kate knows that words shape what people see, believe, and offer. She’s met hundreds of leaders who have never had their stories deeply listened to, never been understood the way they want to be understood. That’s the heart of her work.
Today, she helps senior executives translate high-impact, multi-chapter careers into narratives that read like strategy: résumés, LinkedIn profiles, and executive briefs that open doors and accelerate decisions. Her team has helped more than 500 leaders land interviews, promotions, and pivots, collectively increasing women’s earnings by over $3.5 million.
Her approach is fast, collaborative, and grounded in evidence. No jargon. No padding. Just clarity that commands attention.
Kate holds a master’s degree in German Literature from the University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign, and has led in both Fortune 200 boardrooms and nonprofit classrooms. She’s fluent in German, a nationally awarded flutist, and fiercely believes in equity, dignity, honesty, and the power of words to change everything.
