LinkedIn recommendations
What people say about working with Cuong.
Public LinkedIn recommendations for Cuong Nguyen, including from his career coaching work before founding Move Theory.
Before working with Cuong, I was applying for jobs but wasn't getting interviews. He helped me take a more proactive approach, sharing companies to target and coaching me on how to reach out, follow up and prepare for interviews. That outreach led to three interviews and a job offer. Cuong supported me every step of the way, with practical advice and clear actions so I always knew what to do next. I'd highly recommend him to anyone who feels stuck in their job search and needs guidance to move forward.
Vipul Choundira
Cyber Security Analyst · Worked with Cuong on the same team
I had a great experience working with Cuong during my cybersecurity job search. He provided valuable support with my resume and cover letters, LinkedIn profile and personal branding, as well as my overall job application and communication strategy. His advice was practical, thoughtful and tailored to my goals, and helped me approach the job search with much more structure and confidence. I'm very grateful for his support and would happily recommend Cuong to anyone looking for professional career guidance.

Cybersecurity Analyst · Coached by Cuong
Cuong supported me as my career coach throughout my job search, helping me secure a role in cybersecurity. He helped me improve my CV, approach recruiters and prepare for interviews, with practical advice tailored to the situations I was facing. One of the biggest improvements was my confidence in interviews. We worked on behavioural questions and using examples from my previous experience to explain what I could bring to a role.
