Helping Professionals Stand Out, Get Noticed, and Get Hired — With Confidence.
Hi, nice to meet you. I’m Lizzette.
After decades on the other side of hiring — leading HR and talent acquisition teams for international and global companies — I now run my own executive search firm helping organizations build leadership teams and fill critical roles.
But now, I want to help you. I created ElevateU to give professionals like you the insider knowledge, strategies, and confidence that I’ve shared with hiring managers and recruiters for years — so you can land the job you actually want.
“Your career deserves clarity, strategy, and confidence — not guesswork.”
Lizzette Weber-Yee
Why this is my mission.
Helping people land careers they love has always been more than a job for me — it’s a calling.
Over the years, hundreds of professionals, friends, and family have reached out to me for help with their job search. Whether it was reviewing resumes, giving feedback, or offering strategic advice, I’ve always tried to help — often quietly and behind the scenes — simply because I believe everyone deserves a chance to shine.
As much as I loved helping people one-on-one, I realized I could only reach so many this way. ElevateU was born as my way to make a greater impact — to give professionals everywhere the exact insider strategies I’ve honed for 25+ years, so they can stand out, get noticed, and thrive in their careers.
I launched ElevateU to take the guesswork out of job searching. This is my way of helping professionals cut through the noise, build strong personal brands, and land roles they love — without burning out or feeling invisible.

Beyond the Resume
When I’m not coaching job seekers or leading executive searches, I’m mentoring women in leadership, speaking at events, and advocating for professionals to find meaningful careers
Outside of work, I’m happiest with a good cup of coffee in hand, cheering on my kids’ milestones, or spending time outdoors — whether it’s hiking a trail or paddleboarding on the water.
I am not just here to help you with resumes and LinkedIn profiles — I’m here to help you see your career as a story worth telling.

I was referred to Lizzette by a colleague—and from our very first call, I knew I was in good hands. She connected with me right away and asked thoughtful, thorough questions about my goals and aspirations. What stood out was something I’d never heard of before: a reverse job search process. I had been wanting to relocate my family to California and build a career in one of the country’s top medical device hubs. Lizzette worked with me strategically every step of the way—helping me craft a standout resume, coaching me on outreach, and most importantly, opening doors I couldn’t have opened on my own. Thanks to her support, I not only relocated to my ideal location, but also landed a better position—moving from Senior Manager to Director of Procurement & Logistics. I'm incredibly grateful for that introduction and highly recommend Lizzette’s expertise to anyone serious about taking their job search to the next level.

In October 2019, I received a very friendly and professional message from Lizzette Weber. She was searching for an Engineering Manager for Aptiv (Winchester Interconnect Division). I responded, and we scheduled a video call. From the very beginning of our conversation, Lizzette was clear and confident about the position—and about why she believed I was the perfect fit. During that call, I felt like I had known her for years. Her professionalism and positive energy created a welcoming and engaging environment. The hiring process moved quickly, and thanks to Lizzette’s support and guidance throughout, I was successfully hired. Since then, I’ve grown within the company and am now proud to serve as General Manager. I truly believe Lizzette was born to do this kind of work. Her background, people skills, and eagle eye for talent make her uniquely equipped to help professionals like me find not just a job—but the right job.

As she explored my skills and talents, it became clear that she not only understood the pulse of the community but also deeply recognized my passion for serving the very place where I grew up and where my family still lives. If you’re looking for a job, I highly recommend ElevateU. They go beyond just reviewing your résumé — they take a deep dive into your skills, values, and passion to ensure you’re aligned with the right opportunity.
