With this in mind, I've made it my mission to help others around me stay happy and achieve their goals

I had a very helpful conversation with Orcun to discuss my career goals and growth. He provided me with excellent advice on developing a strategy to advance in my career. His uplifting attitude made the conversation a joy. Even after just one session, I feel much clearer about my path forward, and I’m glad to have met him.

I came to Orcun with a short term goal of getting promoted to Senior Software Developer & within a span of few months he gave me some useful advice that helped me get there. Orcun is very experienced, knowledgeable & knows what he's talking about.

Really helpful advice even though this was just a single 60 min session: "Career Coaching". I got more out of this meeting that I expected! I'm currently at staff level. We looked at my CV and discussed a few potential paths forward, with some good insights and info I didn't realize before. Also: Think about what matters to me most in terms of jobs and life - a few dimensions to consider. Orcun is a good listener, easy to talk to and has a lot of knowledge about the industry.
