Interview coaching reviews and testimonials

These reviews are for my interview coaching service.

“While I had had a few interviews during my search for new employment, I had not been successful. Graeme helped me with the finer details of my interview technique, eliminating the weaknesses and focusing me on the attributes needed for success. He was thoughtful and well prepared for my specifics. It’s probably no coincidence that I was offered a very good job shortly afterwards.”

Mike

Programme Manager, Warwick, UK

“I am very happy that I received help from Graeme in writing a professional CV. It was easy to discuss with him my work experience before he wrote the CV. He will ask the right questions, highlight personal skills, achievements and write these in a professional way. Writing a CV is time consuming especially when there is a large work experience and descriptions needs to fit within a short CV space. Graeme made sure that nothing was missed and described the most relevant points with regard to my future career plans. He can also help in test preparations for assessments and interviews and I strongly recommend his help in this area too. I have completed an excellent written test because I was more prepared and have also learned a lot with his suggestions and guide. I fully recommend Graeme for helping with CV writing, cover letter and preparing for interviews. It will save a lot of precious time and make you much more prepared.”

“Graeme has been a fantastic interview coach-the very best that anyone could get. He is personable, patient, and a very good source of advice. He helps you to identify your unique selling point and sell yourself in an interview and on a CV. Graeme is always ready with strong interview tips and can give tactful feedback about ways to improve. The mock interview that I had with him was also well-prepared and boosted my confidence greatly. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Graeme as a CV writer and an interview coach. He’s a real pleasure to work with.”

Michael Ball

Publishing Professional, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK

“Working with Graeme made a significant difference to my interview technique and I would highly recommend him to any individual or company. Prior to this I had done very badly in a couple of interviews and realised that I really needed help to improve my performance.

I worked with him for five hours in total and was successful in the first job that I applied for following his input.

As an aside, what really impressed me was the amount of preparation that Graeme had done prior to each session.”

Kevin

Business Engagement Manager, Cumbria, UK

“I had been in the same job for more than 20 years and when I needed to apply for a new one I was very apprehensive. With Graeme’s help on both the job application and interview, I successfully obtained the first job that I applied for, despite being one of 10 well qualified existing staff going for 4 jobs.”

Donna

Council Officer, South Shields, UK

“Huge thanks to Graeme for my new CV and interview coaching which enabled me to secure my new job in research. Graeme’s approach is thorough, detailed and thoughtful. His ability to listen, extract pertinent points and communicate my career history in CV form is outstanding. His interview coaching was highly personal and demonstrated industry insight. It enabled me to better understand the interview process and answer questions in the best way possible. I was offered the first job I was selected for and had an interview for – and I couldn’t have done it without Graeme.”

Rachel

Academic Researcher, Sunderland, UK

“I got the job!

Thanks for your help. It was definitely useful because it helped me narrow my focus down on to the case studies that would work best and the messages / skills I really wanted to get across rather than trying to juggle too many possibilities.

Thanks again.”

Ruth

Manager, professional services company, UK

“I would recommend Graeme to anyone looking to improve their interview skills. I had a 2-hour coaching session with Graeme ahead of a job interview. We worked through questions Graeme had prepared based on the job and person specification and Graeme gave me enormously helpful feedback on my answers helping me to sift the wheat from the chaff and think about my responses from an employer’s perspective. The whole process was extremely confidence-building. Graeme listens carefully before making observations and suggestions which are thoughtful and insightful. He clearly has a breadth and depth of up-to-date knowledge about the workplace which he brings to bear. In the past I have had many interviews, almost all unsuccessful. This time, however, I was offered the job! Thank you, Graeme.”

Alice Lane

Council Officer, UK

“I was fully prepared and confident for all the interview questions from his training.

Result: I got my dream job as a Site and Project Manager in Riyadh, doubling my salary from the UK and higher position.

Now I can explore the world, hit my financial goals and be able to support a full family.
Thank you so much Graeme, this will be life changing…”

Jakob Nailen

Senior Engineering Manager, Saudi Arabia

“Graeme carried out a quality interview coaching session and quality written information sheet in a very, very short timescale. Graeme pulled it off and the end result was that I now feel confident that my upcoming interview will be structured and rehearsed and I’m fully prepared.

Graeme is a brilliant and talented writer. He listens and develops the best possible customised experience. I thoroughly recommend Graeme’s Services. He’s the best CV and Interview professional I’ve ever used. Forget the rest, you will be glad you chose Graeme. Five stars.”

Colleen

“I arranged for Graeme to coach me for an interview and the result was – I got offered a position.”

“Graeme’s interview coaching technique is excellent. The service is bespoke and in-depth. Within one session he was able to accurately identify my skills and relate them directly to the job for which I was applying and gave advice which was perfectly tailored to the interview. Highly recommended.”
