Recruiters vary in their level of experience and the questions they ask have changed in the past couple of years. Self Marketing Advantage (SMA) coaches you on what to expect, how to respond to questions, and how to handle difficult situations and still leave a positive impression. The prerequisite for this program is RESUME COACHING.

IN-PERSON COACHING consists of three sessions and you are given the choice to receive coaching for one of the following:

• informational interviews


• networking events


• in-person job interviews

Session #1
This 60-minute session includes:

• information on the process and what to expect


• coaching on how to prepare for the meeting including research, suggested attire, appropriate questions, difficult situations, how to conduct a meeting over a meal, etc.


• how to continue to leave a positive impression after the meeting has ended

Session #2
This 75-minute consultation consists of:

• a simulated meeting


• review of the meeting, providing coaching and constructive feedback

Session #3
You can take advantage of this 30-minute coaching consultation over the phone at any point in your job-seeking process.

Sessions #1 and #3 can be conducted via phone. Session #2 can be conducted via video-conference or in-person. If session #2 is conducted in-person, you will receive a DVD of the simulated meeting.

"I was starting to feel discouraged about my job search since I was getting very few interviews. I thought I had a really well–written resume and I didn´t understand why I was getting such a low response. SMA helped me determine the type of positions and companies to focus on, then we re-wrote my resume to showcase my accomplishments. Through this exercise of clarity, SMA helped build my confidence. Then I sent out my ‘new and improved’ resume and got a positive response right away! SMA coached me on how to interview for those types of positions in that particular industry. I feel much more confident and it was invaluable help that I’ve never received before."
