Thank you so much for giving me the tools, structure and inspo. It has been a wild 6 months. Having not worked for a year, I'd lost confidence and direction. The market is completely different, and I've never had to go through formal processes. Also, I am sure there is a special place in hell for interviews. While the first few interviews for this process were not perfect, at least I turned up (I cancelled soooo many first and second interviews due to nerves/self-sabotage), and I even managed to get out my stories and showcase my best bits. I nailed the presentation (mostly) on Tuesday, references done on Wednesday, got the offer today! I'm so inspired, this was exactly what I needed to get out of my funk. I loved how I could work through the steps at my own pace and download your tools without having to sell my soul. Thanks for sharing your expertise with me. I wish you both all the success, Your fan in Melbourne. PS. I would buy you more cuppas but my budget is low after having spent $500 on a career coach before I found your podcast!😭"</p><p>📄 To get step by step help with your interview prep on demand check out our Interview Academy <a href="https://www.interviewboss.com.au/interview-academy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.interviewboss.com.au/interview-academy</a></p><p>☕ Did our podcast help you out?
