About Christopher Taylor
As a world-renowned Job Hunt Strategist and former headhunter, it\'s my passion to help everyday people find their dream jobs. That’s why I founded the Occupation Optimist, a career consulting company dedicated to modernizing the job hunt. My years of experience in recruiting, consulting, and instructing empower me to help clients maximize their resume, networking strategy, and job hunt approach to land positions in sought-after companies. My tailored approach has been featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Time, Fast Company, Black Enterprise, The Muse, and Inc Magazine.“When I tell my friends about Chris, I often say,\"He\'s like Hitch! But for your dream job.\" We laugh, but it\'s true! His ability to ask the right questions, get to know you and help you see that value in yourself is phenomenal. He\'s shifted my views on what I\'ve learned and the value I\'ve added in my previous positions.” – Former clientOff the clock, you can find me reading self-discovery books, enjoying independent films, and spending time with my wonderful wife and newborn.
