I found your podcast and listened to your episodes in the car, when i was working out, in the shower, anywhere I could. I prepped like a boss and the interviewer told me it would be awhile to sift through the applicants as it was a highly competitive position so expect it to be weeks..... the same day they were contacting my referees and the next day I was given a preferred candidate offer!!! OMG thank you so much for the confidence boost and all your help. PS the notebook saved my life and I have shared the butt clench tip with all my friends :)”</p><p>☕ Did our podcast help you out?
