I approached Maureen for advice on job interview preparation. What a
remarkable experience. After just three coaching sessions, I interviewed for a "bottom rung" position, but to my amazement I came away with an offer of a position way up the ladder. Maureen guided me with a very focused approached that helped me feel comfortable and well prepared. With her help,
I was able to field all manner of challenging questions thoughtfully and calmly. Her thorough, thoughtful approach to interview preparation was a key factor in helping me secure a job I truly love. |
