INTERVIEW, CASE STUDY, PRESENTATION PREPARATION

---

You did it, your focused career path, pitch and job navigation plan worked! You got the interview. Now what?! From years of experience conducting interviews and working with clients, I have heard nearly every kind of question and answer and can help you position yourself and your experience in the best possible way. I will also help with how to answer questions around pay including possible buy outs, your approach to being in the office vs working from home and more.  

Interviewing is a skill, and while you may not have 10,000 hours to master it we will work together so that what you say has impact. We will work through what to expect in different types of interviews (the hiring manager, the CEO discussion, what the board wants to know, how to tackle the presentation as well as the steps to get started dazzling the HR team and your headhunter). We will role play and get you interview ready!

Maybe it has been several years since you interviewed and you feel out of practice – and if that’s the case don’t underestimate how hard it can be to communicate what you did to someone outside of the company jargon, network and systems where you have operated for years. Don't know what to say when they ask you “how much do you want to be paid?” Don’t worry, we got this. 

Or, perhaps you are interviewing regularly, but for some reason you’re not making it past the first round. Been asking for feedback but just getting fluff you can’t work on (the dreaded – “lack of cultural fit!”)? Do you know how to respond to one of the most common interview questions “so tell me about yourself” so that the interviewer remembers you? 

Have you been asked to prepare a case study or presentation as part of a final round? Firstly, congratulations this is a big milestone and you are likely down to the last 2 maximum 3 candidates for the job. Do you know how to tackle this? Do you know what the interviewers want to see and how to show it to them (and what not to do!) I have coached candidates through this many times and would be honoured to help you at this critical stage. 

We will work together on what to do or say in your next interview or presentation, how to address specific feedback you received or how best to respond to a question. I will give you tips of what hiring managers and headhunters are tired of hearing and help you to stand out from your peer group.
