Who is Sam Glatzer?

It’s great to meet you! My journey began over 20 years ago when I co-founded a successful boutique recruiting firm in New York, Sam&Lori Associates. Over the years, I’ve partnered with some of the most prestigious Advertising, Marketing, Technology, and Design firms, helping them find top talent. Companies like W+K, Rockstar Games, Apple, Google, BBDO, Lyft, Gretel, Interbrand, Adam&EveDDB, Saatchi, Mother, SS+K, BBH, and CAA are just a few of the names I’ve worked with.

Through this work, I gained unparalleled insight into how companies evaluate candidates and what it takes to stand out in a competitive job market.

I founded YourCareerCompass as a platform and community to help you discover your "North Star"—the guiding vision that leads to a fulfilling career. I’m deeply invested in your journey and success, bringing both heart and expertise to the table.

As a Certified Leadership and Performance Coach through Brown University, I am passionate about your transformation and helping you find the right path. Throughout my career, I’ve guided thousands of individuals into roles where they’ve thrived, building confidence and clarity along the way.

Whether you’re a recent graduate beginning your career or an experienced professional seeking a change, we’ll work together to create a personalized plan. From demystifying the hiring process to building confidence and crafting a clear strategy, I’ll help you land a career you’ll love.

Outside of career coaching, you’ll often find me skiing in Vermont, experimenting with new recipes, or spending quality time with my husband, three daughters, our chickens, cats, and our goofy yellow lab.
