  • →A short survey each week
  • →An honest review at the end, good or bad
  • →Actually sending the outreach we write for you

Places are limited and we read these ourselves, so the more you tell us the better.

The beta terms

What you are agreeing to

You are applying to a testing group for a product that is still being built. Everything in the programme is provided free. In exchange we ask for your participation and your honest opinion, including the parts we will not enjoy hearing.

Confidentiality

You will see features, pricing and plans that are not public. You agree to keep what you see inside the programme confidential, and not to share screenshots, recordings or access with anyone outside it, until it is publicly released.

AI and your information

Career Launchpad uses AI to help write your resume, your LinkedIn profile and your outreach. You consent to the information you give us, including your resume and the notes from your coaching calls, being processed that way. Coaching calls and group sessions are recorded so we can act on the feedback. Your information is never sold, and it is not shared outside Next Chapter Talent.

Feedback and reviews

You agree to complete a short survey each week and to leave an honest review at the end. We are asking for honest, not positive. A bad review that tells us why is worth more to us than a good one that does not.

Participation

There are fifteen places and we expect more applicants than that. The programme runs four weeks: a kickoff call, then a call every week. If you stop participating, we may offer your place to someone else so it is not wasted. We will contact you first.

No guarantee of employment

This is career coaching and job search support. It is not a guarantee of a job, an interview or any particular outcome.

We will come back to you either way. No card, and nothing to cancel.
