Preparation: Interview Preparation and Negotiation

(Available only in combination with any other The Manager Program service)

Many career changers reach the final stages of the process only to discover that they are ill-prepared to answer interview questions, ill-at-ease in interview situations, and really could use some expert practice and preparation in advance.  Our career consultants help you research the people you will meet, prepare for the questions they are likely to ask with the best answers based on your particular skills and experience, and otherwise prevail in difficult interview situations.  We will even role-play interviews in advance with you if needed so that you feel that much more confident when you have to face the music.

If you have had recent interviews or if you are facing them now, just ask yourself:  Could you imagine being better prepared with industry or company research ahead of an interview?  How would that change the outcome?  What impact would it have if you could anticipate key questions and practice your responses via role-play with a professional career consultant?

Then there is the all-important question of negotiating your package.  So managers are so happy to receive an offer that they accept it without question.  Others overreach and lose their chance.  What is the balance?  What other compensation elements might you leave on the table without professional guidance?  What would more salary, vacation, benefits, or other advantages mean to you and your family if you could achieve them through better negotiation?

We have helped literally thousands of career changers cross the finish line, so we have a clear understanding of when to ask for what.  How confident are you in your own powers of interview preparation and offer negotiation?  We can help even the odds.
