Job Interview Coaching
Few people relish interviews, but interview coaching can help us learn to express ourselves with confidence and clarity. We can help you with both the content preparation (what you say) and performance (how you say it) of interviews.
If you spend time considering answers to the typical interview questions like, “Where do you see yourself in 3 years?” and the deceptively tricky, “Tell me about yourself” questions, that's more than most people do. The deeper work, however, lies in practicing with an impartial person who will provide candid, honest feedback and provide pointers on how to improve your performance.
Our Interview Coaching services not only help you craft answers to commonly asked questions -- our Interview and Confidence Coach Bill Johnson offers 20 years experience of acting instruction experience to help you show people the relaxed, confident person you know yourself to be. He offers techniques for calming your nerves, speaking with concision and clarity and successfully building rapport.
Believing that we tend to make sense of the world through stories, Career Coach Kristin Schuchman helps you find the words to tell your story in an engaging manner to lay a foundation for interviewing success.
Personal Stylist Kat Depner will make sure you look your best by offering feedback on your wardrobe choices (included in the Seize the Day package). If you choose to work one-on-one with Kat, she can also help you find the right clothing to sharpen your look and express yourself with confidence and flair.
Together, we'll help you find the language to convey your strengths and the confidence to communicate with ease.

As video becomes more prevalent in companies hiring practices you need to know what works and what doesn't.
