Student Review

"I found this mock interview and resume session to be very helpful. Ian helped to rehearse and re-phrase my answers, which became differentiable and great. I was able to get a second round interview for a Market Risk Analytics position at a major Canadian bank thanks to Ian's help."

- Sameer S., experienced analytics professional

“Ian had helped tremendously in helping me craft my fit story, which is the least talked about portion in interview prep! He has a unique way to discuss strength and weaknesses that is tailored towards your own experience rather than the generic story. Highly recommend.” 

– Wenjun X., Ph.D candidate in Genetics

"Ian spent a lot of time doing mock interview questions and prepared me on questions that come up often in interview/networking sessions. He identified ways to personalize my answers to these questions that will help me stand out and to avoid giving typical (boring) answers. During the entire session, I never felt rushed or uncomfortable and he took the time to really analyze my answers and give very constructive feedback."

- Gayaanan J., Ph.D candidate in Biology and Genetic, CO-Founder of Sustainable Steps Foundation (a non-profit that runs rural development project in Nepal)

"Ian was very professional before, during, and after the clinic. His description of the interview process, synthesis of my resume and behavioural interview, and feedback on my strengths and weaknesses provided actionable insights that correlated well with comments I have received over the years from current and former consultants. Above all, I appreciated his honesty, which is a core value I carry with me through any interaction. Together, this helped provide strong validation for my next steps that I will take."

- Ian John P., M.D., Bio-Engineering, York University / University of Toronto

“Ian’s knowledge as interviewer was very valuable in helping to draft my story and provide specific guidance. His help with my resume got me 2 interviews."

– Mohamed A., Ph.D in Info System with 15 years of global experience
