Specialized Interview Coaching For Executive and Manager Jobs

We offer specialized, expert interview coaching for executive and manager positions. We help you polish your resume and curriculum vitae (CV), answer difficult and tricky questions, tell compelling stories that showcase your strengths, and help you handle any situation that can arise in an interview. We give you feedback and guidance on your vocal skills, eye contact and body language.

If you experience interview anxiety or stage fright we have a state of the art interview psychology training program to teach you mental toughness, poise, and calmness and focus skills so you'll go into your interviews feeling confident.

If you tend to freeze up and go blank, or forget what you wanted to say, we teach you advanced communication techniques that help you gracefully and diplomatically "stall for time" and gain more data while you can think of what to say.

We teach you the art and science of rapport building so you can reduce your discomfort with small talk and have the interviewer like you.

Our collaborative, professional relationship supports, guides and advises you across the full range of the interview process.

We'll show you how to come across to interviewers as a candidate who will be highly desirable and successful at their organization.

The interview coaching will be conducted by Bill Cole, MS, MA, who is a thought leader in peak performance, coaching, and the mental game. Bill has authored 16 books on interview skills, and is a national media personality on how to put your best foot forward in interviews. Bill's degrees include an MA in counseling psychology, and his memberships include the American College of Sports Medicine and Psi Chi, the National Honor Society in Psychology.

When you hire us we become your coach and consultant to help you get the executive and manager position of your dreams. Bill Cole, MS, MA regularly helps people excel in executive and manager interviews.

Once you begin coaching with us, we also have numerous specialized executive and manager interview questions we help you answer in dozens of topic areas.

Executives & Managers Interview Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Executives and Managers Interview Coaching


Question: How many hours does this executive and manager interview coaching take?

Answer: Many other executive and manager interview coaching programs we have seen require a very large time commitment, upwards of 10-25 hours. However we have found that we work so efficiently that most of our clients need only 4-6 hours with us. Of course we can support you through your entire interview process, at any level of coaching you desire.

Question: I see other coaches charging packages of $2000 to $4000 for executive and manager interview coaching. Why is it so expensive?

Answer: Interviewing for executive and manager positions is expensive in and of itself. The coaching you receive is a very small investment in view of not only the overall value you will receive, but also in comparison to the income you will earn as an executive or manager. Our fees are based only on the coaching you actually receive. You never pay for hours you don't use. Over the course of your coaching time with us, your investment would range from $300-$600 or so.

Question: What aspects of the executive and manager interview process do you help me with?

Answer: We become your guide for whatever you may need in this process. Some of our services, as part of the coaching and consultation:


  • Resume and CV review and editing
  • Help you improve your profile on LinkedIn
  • Help you craft answers to difficult and sensitive questions
  • Help you improve cover letters
  • Mock interviews
  • Stress management and stage fright control
