Jeff’s uncle called me and asked if I would have a conversation with him. He is a very bright engineer, recent graduate, with great school credentials. He was getting tons of interviews and interest. But he was getting zero offers.
I spent a Sunday afternoon coaching Jeff to get ready for an interview he had the next day. It was a company he really wanted to work for. He didn’t want to leave disappointed one more time.
And the day would be grueling. He had 5 one-on-one interviews – each an hour long. In between all that there was a lunch with a few of the team members.
