You were worth more than the market offered you last time. Prove it with pipeline, not pleading.

The wait.

More relationships. More at stake.

The juggle.

Three recruiters, two referrals, and a board member who said 'let's talk' six weeks ago.

Complex comp.

Every role has a different structure and none of them are straightforward.

Stealth mode.

You can't post about your search. Half your network is people you're trying to leave.

The long game.

The process takes months, not weeks. Each round has more people to remember.

High stakes.

One missed follow-up doesn't just lose a lead. It loses the relationship.

What changes.

Every relationship, mapped.

At your level, the search is the network. Orbyt tracks every stakeholder: recruiters, hiring managers, board members, references. Full interaction history. Six relationship types. Activity timelines. Automatic follow-up reminders. Because the worst thing that can happen isn’t a rejection. It’s a relationship that went cold because you forgot to reply.

Offers, compared with clarity.

Base salary. Equity. Signing bonus. RSU vesting schedule. Benefits. Relocation. You shouldn’t have to build a spreadsheet to compare opportunities at this level. Orbyt lays every offer side by side so you can negotiate from a position of knowledge, not guesswork.

Confidential by design.

Your data stays yours. Row-level security. On-device encryption. API keys that never leave your browser. Orbyt was built knowing that some searches can’t be public. And that trust, once broken, doesn’t come back.

At your level, compensation packages are complex. Base, equity, bonus, signing. These numbers represent the full picture for roles you’re targeting, and the spread between P25 and P75 is where negotiation lives.

The pressure is different at your level.

At senior levels, your identity is tied to your title. A search feels like starting over, even when it isn't. Orbyt's wellness tools help you stay grounded while navigating high-stakes conversations.

Mood check-ins

Track your state across weeks of negotiations and multi-round interviews.

Journaling

Prompts for processing career identity beyond your title.

Breathing

Before board-level interviews and high-stakes conversations.

Resilience streaks

Stay grounded through months of executive-level search.

Common questions

Yes. The contact CRM tracks multi-stakeholder relationships across companies. Offer tracking compares complex compensation packages side by side. Calendar integration manages interviews across time zones.

Yes. The offer comparison tool breaks down base, equity, bonus, signing, and benefits for each offer. The leverage calculator helps draft negotiation emails based on competing offers.

Yes. VP, Director, and Principal-level compensation data across 81 cities. Total comp breakdowns including equity vesting schedules and bonus structures.

Turn off LinkedIn Open to Work. Tell only trusted contacts by name, never broadly. Interview on personal devices and personal email. Orbyt is private by default: your pipeline is not visible to recruiters, your employer, or anyone else. Private mode is the default, not an upsell.

Four to nine months for most VP and director-level roles. Twelve months is not unusual for C-suite searches. Relationship depth drives the pace, not application volume. Orbyt's contact CRM and follow-up reminders are built for the six-conversation search, not the six-hundred-application search.

Both. Top executive roles are often filled through retained search, so building relationships with three to five relevant recruiters is worth the time. Direct applications still work for roles below the C-suite. Orbyt tracks both channels side by side in one pipeline.
