After his Olympic and Navy Careers, Schoettle worked in sales and marketing roles at Xerox. Later, he became an executive recruiter with Heidrick & Struggles. Using his years of experience in the industry, he wrote Career Change Guide, released first in 2021.

His brother Ferdinand Schoettle competed in sailing at the 1956 Summer Olympics, where he skippered a boat which finished 4th in the 5.5 metre class. The spinnaker was accidentally dropped in the last race, hence the 4th.

His grandfather, Edwin J. Schoettle, edited and published the book "Sailing Craft".[2]

He graduated from The Lawrenceville School Yale University and Harvard Business School, and later taught at Loyola Marymount University.
