About this courseWhat makes this course different: it's like a 1-1 coaching session vs. sitting in a "classroom" type of learning
Learn from an experienced Interview Coach, Resume Writer & Career Guide!
--My classes are more like a conversation than a lecture to keep you interested and engaged
--I’m all about supporting job seekers that are looking for a JOB THEY LOVE!
(You can read what some happy clients and class participants have said about me in a sec)
In this upbeat and inviting class of digestible bits & tips (sprinkled with a little fun!), we’ll go over some important insights to support you, on personal and practical levels, to be effective, memorable, and clearly communicate your skills and value in a job interview.
A sample of past clients and class participants feedback about me as an instructor and coach:
“The best part of the presentation was her (presenter’s) personality; she was fun and grabbed attention; focused, and knowledgeable" and “(she was) interesting and informative" and “ helpful information and sincere enthusiasm; the content was important and the rest was refreshing” and “Thank you, it was fun and worth my time.”
One interview coaching client said: “Shannon’s expertise and experience gave me the preparation necessary to give a strong interview and I ended up receiving a job offer. I would definitely recommend her services in preparing for an interview, reviewing/writing a resume or assistance with cover letters.”
-Lauren, Special Agent Recruit, FBI, Florida
“Shannon’s fantastic! I had already used other interview coaches… Shannon is WAY better!! I’ve known Shannon for over 7 years and have used her services on numerous occasions. When I walk into an interview, I’m confident because thanks to Shannon, I’m prepared!!”
-- Sonia, Account & Operations Management/PM
This course is geared toward: You? If so, you are probably an early to mid-level professional with at least some experience interviewing already.
You’re probably already a knowledgeable, talented contributor (or I can help you realize that you are!) You just need some insider’s ideas on how to show employers this so you stand out – and maybe some encouragement!
Most likely, you are interested in working for a small to mid-sized organization (business, non-profit, creative, teaching and other fields) However, this is for *anyone* that feels drawn to it. All are welcome!
This is an overview course which is expanded upon in more detail in the Prove YOU In the Interview: Answering Behavioral Interview Questions with Example Stories course
This is NOT:
- a completely thorough ‘Interviewing 101’ class
- geared for a highly competitive, “hustle culture", "looking for a "hack" type approach
PART 1: The Dual Purpose of an Interview – it’s not JUST about winning the job offer
--Purpose of a resume vs. the interview
--Does it fit?
--Your value & ways to show it - without bragging
--First impressions & honoring your instincts
PART 3: Learn 3 Simple Interview Strategies for Clarity and Confidence – what I teach my clients
--How to show vs. tell – prove your skills
--Repetition & ‘Branding’ – you’re marketing YOU!
--The BEST way to build confidence in yourself (and the employer in your abilities!)
PART 4: Top 3 Tips on Most Asked Client Questions
--What to ask (and not ask) when it’s your turn to ask questions
--Avoiding pitfalls of the “Tell me about yourself…” question (and what to say instead)
--Strengthening your answer to the dreaded, “What is one of your weaknesses?” question
--Recovering gracefully from missing (or not understanding) the question (!)
PART 5: How to Handle Some Common (But Awkward) Interview Situations
-- What should you do if: your interviewer isn't asking you anything, or, asking you to do a LOT (like a "sample" project)?
PART 6: Small Tips to Make a Big Impression (and differentiate yourself from the competition!)
As a hiring manager friend of mine said, "Not everyone I interview does this, but, I believe I've hired every one that did!"
PLUS… I added some bonus documents (see attached pdfs) as a thank you – annnndd – I just couldn’t help myself … there are some great resume tips sprinkled in here as well!
