Reserve a seat for Confidence That Sells, a two-day workshop to your interview performances are as effective as your résumé.
Getting interviews but no offers?
If so, your résumé is doing its job. And your interviews aren’t.
If your conversations with hiring managers aren’t advancing to next rounds or generating offers, something about the interview isn’t right — and it may not be what you think.
I’m in communications, and nobody ever taught me how to interview. I got a sample résumé, a sample cover letter, and a “go find postings and apply” send-off. That was it.
No hiring manager ever told me when I said something stupid. Recruiters gave me polite, useless feedback. I didn’t understand why the conversations weren’t leading to callbacks or offers.
So how was I supposed to know?
For a long time, I thought I interviewed well.
Then I spent a year unemployed — getting interviews, but few callbacks and no offers.
Maybe I wasn’t as good at interviewing as I thought.
About 40 weeks in, I had to face an uncomfortable possibility.
Fortunately, a recruiter asked me a single question that changed how I’ve prepared for every interview since. It stopped me from underselling my impact — by describing the programs I ran instead of what happened because I ran them.
That recruiter’s question also surfaced something I rarely mentioned in interviews, lest I appear too junior or “in the weeds”: the boring, repetitive shit. The stuff too unglamorous to bring up turned out to be some of the clearest evidence of what I knew how to do and the impact I had on clients, employees, and the business.
What I learned from that one question became the foundation of Confidence That Sells.
If they are, you don’t need this. If they’re not, or you’re honestly not sure, this workshop is exactly for you.
No one is with us in the room during interviews. This isn’t about memorizing better answers — it’s about understanding what you actually do, who you do it for, and why it matters. And whether the hiring manager sitting across the table remembers you and what you do, instead of every other candidate whose résumé looks as good if not better than yours.
Résumés get you interviews, but they make every candidate look remarkably similar. Interviews get you offers if you make sure you’re memorable and stand out.
You might be a pretty good interviewer who needs to get sharper. You might discover you’re worse at this than you thought — I did.
Either way, it’s fixable. And that’s what the two-day workshop is for.
This two-session workshop is for you if you’re a professional who’s already getting interviews with hiring managers — not just recruiter or HR screens — but offers aren’t following.
It’s not for you if you need help getting any interviews or want a better résumé or LinkedIn profile; this workshop doesn’t cover those topics.
