Interview Coaching that Makes You the Obvious Hire
Recruiter-grade coaching aligned to how hiring decisions are made.
We coach to the decision—not the script.
Most candidates tell stories. Hiring managers decide on signals: judgment, business impact, ownership, influence, and pace. Our job is to put those signals on the surface—clearly, fast, and in the language decision-makers use.
01. Answer Architecture
- “Tell me about yourself” — a 90-second value narrative (not a bio).
- Your toughest behavioral — the scenario most likely to surface from your background.
- The probable panel prompt — the case, technical, or strategic question this role usually requires.
02. Story Bank: 5–7 Proof Points
- Turnaround win — rescued a failing initiative.
- Build from zero — launched something new.
- Conflict resolved — aligned difficult stakeholders.
- Intelligent failure — what you learned, what changed.
- Cross-functional leadership — moved disparate teams.
- Pace under pressure — delivered against aggressive timelines.
- Scale impact — grew revenue, users, efficiency, or team.
03. Hiring-Score™ Self-Assessment
- Clarity (1–5) — Was my point immediately understandable?
- Impact (1–5) — Did I quantify results and business value?
- Leadership (1–5) — Did I show vision, influence, and ownership?
04. Strong Close + Follow-Up Templates
- Pre-close script — “Based on what we’ve discussed, I’m confident I can [specific value]. Are there any concerns about my fit that I can address now?”
- 24-hour follow-up email — Reinforce 2–3 themes, attach a relevant work sample or one-pager, and propose concrete next steps.
05. Execution Roadmap
- Rehearsal plan — 3 mocks (record yourself, external feedback, panel simulation).
- Tighten what matters — Rewrite your weakest story with sharper metrics.
- Follow-up timing — Thank-you within 24 hours; value-add check-in at 5–7 days if no response.
This structure turns preparation from scattered to systematic—building confidence, repeatability, and a real edge.
