Success Story: Gucci + Kate Spade. Crush Any Interview! Training Immediately Produces 2 Strong Job Offers

Do you easily crush your interviews or do you find them nerve racking and your performance difficult to assess? 

Or maybe you constantly find that you're the least qualified (or borderline unqualified) for the job you're interviewing for.

Believe it or not, it just doesn't have to be that way. At all.

In fact, with the proper training and just 90 minutes to 120 minutes of your time, it's very easy to learn how to dominate and crush any interview. And to do so to the point that you're biggest danger is accepting an offer for a job that you might not like or be a best fit for. Getting to the offer is the easy part.

I just received word today (10/11/2013) from one of my Crush Any Interview! students who received not 1 but 2 offers this week. One offer from Gucci and the other offer from Kate Spade. These are not retail jobs but solid paying, career-oriented office positions.


The best part? 

My student was JOBLESS (unemployed) and although a great person, not extroverted, quite quiet and humble and moreover had only baseline ability.


We had a 90-minute Crush Any Interview! session last Sunday (10/06/2013) and boom, my student crushed the interviews this week.

Even more amazing, we didn't use the full 90 minutes. We had plenty of time for small talk along the way.

Prior to this training the student was "rejected" at a couple other famous luxury brands as not "qualified" or "deep  enough".

What a difference high-impact training can make.

This proves once again that a finely tuned resume (to secure the meeting) along with the Crush Any Interview! system (to blow away interviewers), may be your very best way to get stronger, better offers faster and to do so over people, who on paper or even in reality, are even more qualified than you.


Oh and my student got a bump in salary compared to the previous company even though he was jobless. 


Dup dup di doo.

Hi James,

I have to thank you again. I got promoted to manager. As far as I know, it was the fastest promotion in recent years in the history of [top tier luxury brand] and I'm now the second youngest manager in the company. Can you believe that I'm now going to  handle a 4x  bigger business which will come in around $100 million USD!? I now have the social proof you talked about me getting and needing.

Cheers,
M.T.

Success Story: Your Advice Left Me Speechless

8/30/2013

Dear James,

After receiving your advice I was left speechless for some while. I cannot express how thankful I am to you for sharing your insight.

As you had noticed, I was leaning a bit towards the [fast rising startup] decision and needed a confirmation I am heading in the right direction. I have to admit I was just scared that whatever I decide, I will regret missing the other opportunity. However, you not only gave me this encouragement, but you also contributed with remarks about issues I was not aware of, or because of being emotionally involved in the decision, I could not notice.

Now, it all makes much more sense to me and the decision  became somewhat easier:  before I had a feeling like choosing either option meant some sacrifices, but your argumentation shows me, that working at [top tier automotive brand] does not close the door for a [fast rising startup] career in the future. Therefore, my decision will be to work for [top tier automotive brand].

Yet again, thank you for your great help and giving me the confidence I needed.

Best regards,
G.L.
