Ambika Nigam, CEO Co-founder
As a 5x career switcher I’ve consistently struggled to answer the question, “What could I do next? How can I find a job that aligns with all my unique skills, talents, and interests?” I’ve met and collected advice from 100+ friends, colleagues, mentors, and family who helped open my mind and open doors to new possibilities I hadn’t even thought about as an option.
Christina Nizar, Co-founder
As a longtime freelancer and serial industry and workplace shifter, I had to sink or swim when my profession was disrupted by the tech boom. Slowly and sometimes painfully navigating a whole new world with confusing new roles and titles. After I sorted through it myself, I mentored and guided others by helping them position themselves for emerging fields/roles and sharing the wisdom I’ve learned along the way.

We currently focus on 10 pivot tracks and are best suited for people that are interested in exploring and pursuing one or more of those disciplines. (Product Manager, Customer Success Manager, Content Strategist, Product Marketing Manager, Community Manager, Product Operations, UX Researcher, and Data Analyst). We recommend selecting one to start, you can learn more here.
Did you know "Zeit" means time? We believe time is the most valuable thing we have in life, and want our members to spend it meaningfully. Our program is designed to accommodate people's professional and post-pandemic social lives :) We recommend planning for 2-3 hours a week for program content and sessions.
Weekly Digital Pivot Sprints - Review digital sprint resources, frameworks, and templates at your own pace once a week. Spend roughly ~30 mins doing the exercises before the weekly check in.
Discuss sprints live with your cohort over video - Come together with your cohort and Zeit coach over video to review weekly sprint material, do group exercises, and ask questions. The check-ins will be once a week for 1-hour. They are either Tuesdays or Wednesday between 8pm-9pm EST based on what works best for your cohort. We recommend you attend each check-in but they will be recorded if you cannot attend.
Attend live Mentor Masterclass sessions - Over the 6-weeks will have two live video sessions with role models that have made the pivot you are looking to make. These sessions are 1-hour and held between 7-9pm EST. All sessions are recorded if you cannot attend. Members are free to attend ANY masterclass sessions to learn about various roles.
1:1 coaching session with Pivot experts - You will have daily access to Zeit coaches in the Slack and have the ability to schedule a 1-hour, 1:1 session based on your availability at any point during the program.
Cohorts are like a team! They are a group of people you start the program with. Each cohort is a mix of people pursuing different or the same tracks so that you get to broaden your network. By the end of the program, your cohort feel like family. Like, some of our members are now going for walks and texting kinda friends. Don’t worry, you’ll also get to meet people from prior cohorts once you become a member.
Yes! We have weekly digital check-ins with your cohort over Zoom and our community currently lives on Slack so you can collect anytime.
We got you! Our program is designed to help internal career pivoters as well. Our frameworks and coaching will help you navigate internal conversations !
Heck yea, we believe you can and will! Just to stick to facts, over 75% of our members have either landed career pivots or are progressing through interviews as we speak!
We start cohorts every 6 weeks. So, if you just missed this one please sign up for the next one to reserve your spot as programs fill up quickly. We’ll email you 2-3 weeks before the cohort opens up to set you up for enrollment. Sign up for the next one
