Kiran Somanchi will turn networking dread into networking fun.

Three industries, three pivots, all through networking, not cold applications. All in tight job markets.

During my own 2026 job search, I ran 100+ coffee chats and built AI-powered tools (Claude skills) to stay organized: finding the right contacts, drafting outreach that gets replies, tracking who needs a follow-up before it falls through the cracks.

I started my career as a chemical engineer at Shell, pivoting through four engineering careers spanning 15 years. After my MBA, I pivoted into product management:

1) first at CoolIT, liquid cooling for datacenters

2) then at Benevity, a fintech platform moving $5bn annually, and

3) then at a health-tech startup.

I will teach you the same personal networking system that I have used successfully for over 15 years.
