Many people never land an interview (despite having the qualifications for it)...
How are you going to do to stand out from the sea of applicants?What if you had a strategy that could help you land 1-5 additional job interviews a week?
You know you're ready for the Resume Masterclass when...

You continue to receive rejection letters, even though you have work experience or a college degree

Unfortunately, a lot of people don't know how to sell themselves effectively.There's a simple but effective way of marketing yourself effectively...Your resume.Yes, that boring thing...Your resume (when done right) can open up a lot of opportunities for you.Done properly, it can spark curiosity and intrigue.When the Hiring Team receives your resume and sees that it's filled with achievements, positive impacts, and statistics... They will wonder why you didn't apply sooner.This is what I want to teach you and enable you to do through this program...
Meet Your Instructor đ
Welcome!My name is Pedro Castenada, and I have been in the tech industry for 8+ years. I have sold over $3,000,000 in software technology and worked for a variety of tech companies, ranging from small startups to large, Fortune 1000 tech companies.Today, I make over $200K working from home in the tech industry.
However, my journey didn't start there.I'm a first-generation American who grew up in a small, rural farm town in the middle of California. We didn't grow up with much.And so, when I got the chance to go to college, I made the most out of it.I was the quiet, nerdy kid at the career center on campus, all the time. I went to dozens of workshops and met with every student advisor. I was determined to graduate college with a job and make my family proud.And luckily, I did.And I did it with no connections and no formal background in technology.In June 2023, I started blogging about my journey and sharing my lessons on Reddit and Twitter. My audience grew, and I noticed that other people had the same desire to develop their careers, be positively challenged, and make more money.In this program, I share everything I know and help people just like you break into the tech industry, achieve their highest earning potential, and have a fulfilling career.
You're here for a reason...
Let's be honest. You are on this page for a reason.You likely have some motivation or desire to make a career change.Or, you're a recent college grad who is ready for a great career path.
If any of these bullet points resonate, you're in the right place...
Money: Money is important. You should be paid based on your effort and results. According to RepVue.com, the current average earnings are $80,000 annually. The highest-paid people make $128,000 in an entry-level role in tech sales.
Unlimited Potential: You want a career with unlimited growth potential. You have an insatiable thirst for learning and becoming the best version of yourself. In the world of tech sales, you will also learn the most transferable skill in the world: SALES. With your newfound knowledge about sales, business, and influenceâŚanything is possible. Whether itâs climbing the corporate ladder or starting your own business, you will have the skill set to succeed.
Work-Life Balance: More freedom, flexibility, and time to hang out with the people that matter most (whether thatâs your family, kids, or furry cat). In tech, you donât work on the weekends, and work is done at 5pm. Rest is encouraged (and your boss will literally get angry at you if you donât take time for yourself). Go on vacation in Mexico, swim with the sharks, drink Mezcal, and get a tan. You deserve time off.
Who is this course for?
This course is not for everyone, and I don't think everyone should take it.That said... if you meet the following criteria, this course is a perfect fit for you:
You have completed my free, Breaking into Tech Sales program: I recommend starting with my free course to better understand the tech industry and if this is a career path you truly want to pursue.
College Degree (Bachelors or equivalent) OR 4+ Years of Work Experience: Yes. This is a must-have requirement in order to be able to break into the tech industry. If you do NOT have a college degree, then you must have at least four years of work experience (the type of experience doesn't matter, as long as you have it!)
Based out of the US, Canada, UK, Australia, or any country with a tech hub: Your country must have a tech industry. If not, this course won't be helpful.
Current SDRs and AE's who want to make a transition: This course is not just for people who want to break into the tech industry. The lessons in this course are also for industry veterans who want to put their best foot forward and sell themselves effectively as they progress through their careers.
If you just want to know how to create a killer resume that can land you interviews anywhere, period. These lessons are applicable to any high-paying business roles that are competitive. With what you learn in this course, you will stand out anywhere. This applies to Managers, Directors, and other tenured professionals.
You are struggling to land any job interviews and are looking for ways to improve your approach. With the resume template and cold-email templates for the Hiring Managers, this problem will be fixed.

So freakin' what..? Why spend your hard-earned money on this...? đ¤¨
I don't know.Maybe you shouldn't...? There are cooler things you could spend your money on. Fancy dinners, tickets to a concert, etc...Are you sure you want to enroll in another boring course?Here are a couple of reasons why people decide to invest:
Efficiency: You can spend countless hours doing your research. You don't know where to find the best tech companies. This course teaches you everything you need to know in a step-by-step manner. With the templates and videos, students typically start receiving job offers within 90-120 days of beginning this course.
Differentiation: The tech industry is HIGHLY competitive. This means there are a lot of applicants for every job posting (of course, duh. People want to make money). Luckily, there are a few ways to stand out and be more efficient. With the help of this course, you will know exactly what to do so that you can start landing interviews and making progress toward an offer.
Confidence: Yes, confidence. A lot of people don't know how to navigate the tech industry and sell themselves effectively. I teach you how in this program. You will know exactly what you need to do to begin landing interviews.
Don't take my word for it. Here are the results students have seen đ:
If you are having concerns or hesitations about enrolling in this program, I get it.(Please don't spend your hard-earned money on something stupid, including this if you don't see the value in it)Here are some of the program's results:

BONUS #1: Land MORE interviews using this "Cold Email" Formula + Template đ¤
Due to the current economic conditions (there are more applicants than job openings), the job market is ultra-competitive.It's not uncommon to see job postings with over 100+ applicants.Therefore, we've added a new strategy to the program that's proven to work. The strategy? Send a cold email to the Hiring Team with your top strengths.In this program, I teach you how to craft a compelling cold email campaign to send to the Hiring Team and differentiate yourself from the rest of the candidates. I also teach you how to find the Hiring Team and their contact information so that you can get in contact (most candidates have NO IDEA how to do this).Without this email strategy, you risk having your application get lost in a stack of resumesAs you can see below, one of my students used this technique to land more interviews.

Frequently Asked Questions đ¤
I donât have tech or coding experience. Will this be a problem?
This is a common misconception. You don't need to need to be technical to break into the tech industry. As long as you have 4+ years of work experience, you have the necessary experience to break into tech.
I donât have a college degree. Will this be a problem?
You need a college degree OR four years (or more) of work experience to break into tech. If you have a college degree, great. But if no, no worries at (as long as you have the right amount of work experience)
I can find a resume writer on Fiverr. Why not go that route?
You can. However, the resume editors on other websites do not have a background in the tech industry and do not know what tech companies want. This means they cannot give you tailored advice that will suit your goals.
Iâve heard of other tech bootcamps. Whatâs better and different than yours?
Most tech bootcamps are notoriously expensive ($500+). They are more expensive because they hire coaches, and they must pay their wages to teach you (and other students). Unfortunately, this drives up the cost tremendously. You do not need to pay thousands of dollars to get results.
I can probably find all of this for free on Google. Why not just do that?
You can. And you should (if money is an issue). However, they do not organize or structure the content in a way that produces results. This program is a structured easy-to-follow, step-by-step blueprint. No guessing or wasting time.
I have submitted hundreds of applications and havenât heard back once. How can your program possibly help me?
Not only will this program provide you with a proven resume template that is specifically tailored for the tech industry. I also give you a cold-email template that you can send to Hiring Managers to stand out from the sea of applicants. You won't find this on Google.
Disclaimer: This program is rigorous, and I have high expectations of every student. I do not recommend it if you are not coachable or do not have the time to invest. I do recommend it if youâre ready to land a six-figure career and want the best for your future.
Refund Policy: Given that this is a knowledge-based product, there is no refund or guarantee. If youâre concerned about whether or not this opportunity is for you, DM me on Twitter, and we can discuss it further. I have a good sense of who will benefit/not benefit from this program. Additionally, if money is tight, please stick to my free content instead. This program is for those who have already benefited from my free content and are serious about their job hunt and career. The testimonials and results linked above speak for themselves.
No guarantees: Students typically land 1-5 more interviews per week as a result of the templates and lessons inside this program. That said, due to current economic conditions, the amount of tech sales roles currently available is limited and this may impact your response rates. Consider this risk in your evaluation.
