Interview Coaching
You Have the Experience.
Let's Make Sure It Lands.
Senior candidates lose roles for one reason more than any other: they can't tell their own story clearly. They know what they did — they just haven't learned how to communicate it in a way that makes the right impression under pressure. Interview coaching closes that gap.
When to Use Interview Coaching
Interview coaching delivers the highest ROI when the stakes are high and the window is short. It's especially valuable when:
- You're targeting a role that's a step up — VP, Director, C-suite
- You're pivoting industries or functions where your background needs explaining
- You've had a gap in employment and need to address it confidently
- You've interviewed at top companies and kept getting to the final round without offers
- You're re-entering the market after a layoff or a long tenure somewhere
- You have an interview in the next 2–6 weeks and need to prepare fast
What Interview Prep Actually Covers
Your Core Narrative
The thread that runs through your entire career. A clear, confident answer to “tell me about yourself” that sets the tone for everything that follows.
Story Bank
A curated set of 8–12 stories from your career, mapped to the competencies interviewers probe most. Built before the interview so you're never scrambling in the moment.
Behavioral Interviews
Structured practice on leadership, conflict, failure, ambiguity, and influence questions — the ones that trip up even highly qualified candidates at senior levels.
Executive Interviews
Preparing for conversations with C-suite or board members — where the dynamic is different and the questions are less structured but higher stakes.
Your Questions
The questions you ask at the end reveal more than your answers. We build a sharp, genuinely curious set that advances your candidacy instead of wasting the moment.
Offer Negotiation
Most people accept the first offer. We prepare you to negotiate — knowing when, how, and what to ask for — so you don't leave money or title on the table.
The Interview Narrative Toolkit
If you want to start preparing before our first session — or if you prefer a self-guided approach — the Interview Narrative Toolkit is a structured workbook for building your full career narrative from scratch.
It walks you through the exact framework I use in coaching sessions: extracting your best stories, structuring them for impact, and connecting them into a coherent narrative that works across different interview formats.
You can also start with the free Interview Narrative Primer — a shorter version that covers the core concept.
Sprint Format vs. Full Engagement
Interview coaching can be done as a focused sprint — 4 to 6 sessions over 4 to 6 weeks — or as part of a longer engagement if you're also working on career direction, a pivot, or longer-term development. Either way, we start with a clarity session to understand what you need and build a plan that fits.
