On a limited basis, we offer one-on-one personalized interview coaching for all applications, from college to scholarships and awards to internships.
Being able to talk about your personal story in a concise and compelling manner, without sounding like you’re either being too shy or just listing off accomplishments, is a difficult but important balance to strike. We’ll teach you how to show of your strengths and create a cohesive narrative.
Interview coaching consists of one or a series of one-on-one sessions with assigned homework before and after each meeting. You’ll receive a curated list of interview questions. In the first session, we help you identify strengths, brainstorm responses, and rehearse introductory questions. In the 2nd and/or 3rd session, we’ll finalize responses, rehearse more advanced questions, and brainstorm other second priority, less common questions.
Individualized coaching for interview preparation: $795-$1975 for one and more one-on-one sessions.
