I strongly recommend Mahesh for professional interview coaching. I just got a job offer from the social media giant in Menlo Park. Of course we have to do the hard work ourselves to prepare, but his coaching was crucial for my success. Here are detailed reasons why: 1) His sessions are very dense and rich in information. Sample questions and answers, behavioral tips, understanding of interviewers' expectations, research topics for homework were all very relevant and tailored to the position and the company you are applying to. After each session I felt a little overwhelmed but at the same time very encouraged to do the hard work, 2) His advice on how to approach difficult questions proved to be extremely helpful. I was able to stay calm and communicative throughout the interview process even when I felt unsure of my answer. 3) His knowledge of tech industry prepared me well. I was able to highlight all of my relevant skills, which are mostly non-engineering, in the context of the tech business. He was also resourceful in giving me advice on salary negotiation and how to approach it.

Mahesh has transformed my career and my life in numerous ways. What started with an interview coaching session became one of the most important turning points in my life. I not only got the offer, I negotiated and got the right role at the organization of my choice. Mahesh's ongoing coaching has helped me establish my role and create a brand at my workplace. He helped identify and leverage my strengths to take my career to new heights. He is very personable, flexible and has made himself available on phone and in-person to accommodate my availability. Mahesh has made me believe in my own skills and I would highly recommend his coaching.

I contacted Mahesh for job interview coaching and found the process very useful for my job interviews. First of all, I highly recommend getting some coaching before going for interviews, it makes a huge difference, especially getting feedback from someone else in a simulated situation. Looking for a new job is a big step in your career and preparation is key. While I was confident about the job I was applying for, Mahesh provided many insights into improving my pitch, body language, content and style during the mock interviews. Mahesh has experience in the product management field and understands business as well as technology, so he helped in both aspects. By the way, I cleared a few rounds of interviews and got the job that I wanted.

I was stuck in a career rut for over 4 years which hurt my self-esteem, my health, and my personal relationships. I had almost lost all hopes and that is when my husband found Mahesh through an online search for a job and interview coach. In the last 4 months of intense work with Mahesh, I have won 2 awards at my workplace, have been promoted, and have given an awesome interview at one of the world's largest software giant. From resume, to mock-up interviews, and to mastering salary negotiations, we have covered it all. Mahesh pushes you and expects nothing but the best from you. I have been able to discuss all my issues with him and get help so that I can become an all-star in all walks of life. Mahesh gives you the confidence and the sophistication that can be applied both to work and to your personal lives. Mahesh helped me see how interrelated these are. I see him once every month and I believe those are the most precious 2 hours I invest in myself, and have already been seeing some rich payoffs! I highly recommend his coaching for anyone who is looking to advance their career, wow the interviewer, and win in life.

It has been a month since working with Mahesh and I've landed my dream job! Thank you Mahesh!! Your guidance in focusing my attributes, life long career in education, and future goals as I move forward helped me condense my answers into the required 2 minutes per question. This training enabled me to find the perfect match for my skill set! Thank you!!
