Testimonials

"I GOT
THE
JOB!"

--Joe, 2013

"I just wanted to follow up with you. Three interviews and three offers. I'm considering only two at this point and will commit to one this afternoon. Your book was a big help. Thank you!!!"

— S. Posted 3/14/12

"Not only did I find a position, but it looks like this may be the best fit for me."

"Thank you so much for all the expert help you have given me to make it possible for me to reach my goal. I am so happy and contented in my work and so thankful to you for the help you have given me to get here. Thank you for all your expert advice and help."

— Susan L. - Cornell University

"I just wanted to thank you personally for your help, before I spoke to you I was depressed and felt I would never get a job. You lifted me up and gave me the confidence I needed to know that I was not so bad in interviews; I just needed to polish up my interview techniques. So when I interviewed this last time I knew that I had all the tools necessary, and if I did not get this job it really wasn't because I was unworthy, it was because of the high unemployment rate."

"Again, Thank You, and I wish you much joy in knowing how you have the power to help people!"

— Diana Graham

"This job is going to make me so happy and content, it's unbelievable."

"Dear Carole, I can't thank you enough. I loved your workbook and will keep it all filled in and hope I don't need to use it in the near future."

— Kathy Roberts

INTERVIEW TIP

The words, "Tell me about yourself," may not be the exact words used - but the question will be there.

Basically, "Who are you?"

You should be able to articulate what you have to offer - particularly as a match for the requirements of the job. Give a quick summary of your experience - your strengths - positve feedback you've received - and your interests (if they are interesting).

Don't just walk them through your resume - a different question - that's what you've done - not who you are.

"Carole, About 6 months ago I bought the Instant Interview Coach which included an interview audio file from your site and I highly recommend it to any job seeker. Because it worked for me! Using the tactics outlined in your e-book, two months ago I landed a new job making 35% more income with less stress and politics than the place I cheerfully left."

INTERVIEW TIP

The most dreaded question of all. Handle this question by minimizing the weakness and emphasizing the strengths. Stay away from personal qualities and concentrate on professional traits:

There is a formula for difficult questions called the Sandwich Technique.

(+) Begin with a positive statement
(-) Slip in the negative (or weakness)
(+) End with a positive statement

Example:

"I am always working on improving my communication skills to be a more effective presenter. I take every opportunity to practice speaking before groups and I recently joined Toastmasters which I find very helpful."

INTERVIEW TIP

The interviewer is listening for an answer that indicates you've given this question some thought, and are not just sending out resumes because there is an opening. Doing research should give you plenty of reasons why you want to work there. Sincere interest and flattery go A LONG way.

"I bought your Instant Interview Coach package a few days ago. I went for a very formal government job and was able to considerably improve my interview performance by focusing on my friendliness (I think I usually come across as pretty officious in an interview due to being anxious) and my ability to enthusiastically lead a team to outstanding outcomes (I usually try to prove I can do a hundred things which ends up like a shopping list)."

"I was a lot less stressed than usual and had the five fingers full of things I wanted to add and I had a question for them that led to them giving me a lot of info and us having a laugh together (always a good sign!)."

— B. Jackson

INTERVIEW TIP

This question is almost a certainty.

"Why are you here?"

If you are unemployed - (laid off or fired) try to put a positive slant to your answer for your leaving a company. If you are employed, you will want to focus on what you want in your next job - and not just "looking for a more challenging job."

INTERVIEW TIP

The first rule of salary negotiation is to be prepared with your numbers - your needs. You need to know what you want - expect. And, you need to know the going rate for your type of work and position. You never want to be caught off-guard.

Dear Job Seeker,

When you walk out of your next interview -- will you feel elated about landing the dream job that's going to advance your career, allow you to focus on your passions, and provide you with the pay check and lifestyle you want for yourself and your family?

Or, will you have that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach? That feeling of disappointment and dread in knowing that you'll be back on the job hunt tomorrow? Worried about when you'll have a pay check coming in again? Frustrated that everything seems out of your control? And tired of trying to impress people when you know deep down you have a lot to offer?

This is one of the most challenging times for job seekers in decades

We've all seen the headlines. Unemployment rates are at their highest in decades, and jobs are being lost at a rate not seen since the great depression. With millions more job seekers grappling for a dwindling number of jobs, walking out of your next interview with your dream job secured has become much more difficult.

Or has it?

Easily Side Step The Job Destroying Obstacles
And Land Your Dream Job

Warning: You're Probably Headed Straight For Them Right Now

In this letter, I'm going to reveal some simple techniques anyone can pick up in just a couple of days, that will exponentially boost your chances of landing highly sought after positions, and give you more control, more choice, and more confidence in this seemingly desolate job market. You see, there's no way to improve the circumstances of the job market. You can't change the number of jobs available. And you can't get rid of the growing number of competing job seekers.

But, you can change how you approach the market. You can figure out what elements of the job hunting process you do have control over, and learn how to leverage them in your favor. You can land your dream job, even in a fiercely competitive market. And I'm about to show you how...

Dream Job Shortcut #1:

CAN HE OR SHE DO THE JOB?

You see, the truth of the matter is, you may be extremely qualified for the position you're applying for. And still get kicked back into the sea of job seekers, just by making a few simple mistakes - call these mistakes simple, because they really are. However, after interviewing literally 1,000's of applicants over the years, I can tell you that most people don't know what these mistakes are.

The fact that you are getting calls to interview is an indication that you have what it takes to do the job --- at least on paper. But, can you back up that well-written resume with proof that you are qualified?

Three rules to follow:

1. Never assume anyone "read" your resume.
2. Never say anything on your resume or in an interview that you cannot back up with an example/story.
3. Never lie on your application or on in your interview - one lie promotes another.

In many cases, the people interviewing you are very well trained and prepared to pick apart every nitty gritty detail of your personality and qualifications.

Dream Job Shortcut #2:

The Secret To "Selling Yourself" And Why It Gives You
The Golden Key To Unlocking The Job You Want

Despite all the feelings of anxiety and judgment associated with an interview, employers are really just asking you those questions to find one thing: the best person for the job. However, the best person for the job still has to communicate that they're the best person for the job.

In fact, you may be vastly more qualified than any of the other applicants. But if you don't connect with the interviewer and help them see that, you'll be throwing yourself back into the "hunt."

In order to successfully show the interviewer you're the best person for the job, you need to first understand three things:

1. What is the employer really looking for?
2. What is the interviewer really asking?
3. And how can I best communicate what I can do for them?

Dream Job Shortcut #3:

The Biggest Mistakes People Make

Most people, even after spending hours slaving over a perfect resume, fail to put in the necessary preparation for the most important part of the process: the interview!

1. Most people just don't know how to prepare.
2. Even after preparing most people don't receive honest feedback on how they are coming across.
3. Interview after interview some people continue to make the same mistakes and get the same results.

But what if you could change this failing scenario and discover exactly what's on an interviewer's mind? What if you knew the real meaning behind the questions they ask? And could easily find the perfect words to describe precisely what the interviewer is looking for?

Imagine walking into your next interview full of confidence, and ready to answer even the toughest questions in a way that would "paint a picture" of you - your skills and qualifications - and make the interviewer feel good about you. Instead of struggling and stumbling for the right answers, a properly prepared candidate easily navigates the interview and positions themselves as a desired employee.

I know that after a handful of failed interviews it can be hard to imagine things working out so well. It is painful to try so hard and not succeed.
