Hi, I’m Ramona Chihaia
Career Growth & Transition Coach,
and Founder of the PowerUp | Recharge Programme
With 20 years of experience in technology, my career path has spanned roles from engineering to leadership. During that time, I experienced being both the interviewee and interviewer. I’ve navigated both, the stability of traditional employment and the fast-paced world of consulting and freelancing. When I didn’t find an opportunity that aligned with my vision, I advocated for a new role that did not exist yet.
I’ve made bold shifts and gained a deep understanding of what it takes to stand out in a competitive job market.
The interview journey can feel draining for freelancers and traditional job seekers alike.
I know—I’ve been there.
I’ve learned that securing a contract is more than just a process—it’s a skill, a strategy. What initially felt overwhelming transformed into a strategy game, similar to chess.
Drawing from my experience in job searching, creating new opportunities, and working as an executive coach and mentor, I developed a structured yet flexible programme with a solid framework.
My mission?
To bring together senior executives, guests experts, mentors, and participants and create a support system that helps driven tech professionals, at all seniority levels, find more meaning and clarity in their career, and secure the next right role.
With the right mindset, tools, and network, the process becomes energising rather than draining.
And here’s the best part: this is a skill you can learn, too!
If you’re ready to redefine your approach to career growth, let’s take this journey together.
Whether you’re shifting industries, pivoting roles, or leveling up your career, I’m here to help you make it happen.
The next cohort runs from 04 May – 04 July 2025. Read more about the programme.
