Before Julia came to me, she felt disorganised and unsure of how to plan for her leadership interview. She had gathered lots of resources and questions from others and online but she felt that her planning was ‘all over the place’ before our session.

Our mock interview clarified a lot of big points for her - Julia learned to focus on the point that she was trying to make and to move away from long-winded stories. She got clarification and further personal insights and used them with confidence in her interview.

Julia placed second on the panel and moreover, she is very proud of her interview performance. She is continuing to grow and develop personally and professionally.

Cormac is a relatively new teacher and was looking to feel confident in the bank of questions that he had gathered before attending interviews. He felt that he was trying really hard to get interviews but when he got them that he had not done any preparation for how to do them well.

Immediately upon booking, he was pleased to access the Google Drive interview materials that gave him further knowledge and ideas on how to better prepare for teaching interviews. In the session, Cormac practiced his answered and got personalised feedback.

St Mary’s Primary School had discussed the Looking at Our School 2022 document for SSE and Recruitment purposes but they lacked ideas and clarity on how to make practical changes to improve their school.

Upon downloading it - they had many 'aha moments'. The simple questions in the survey - helped them to pinpoint ways in which they could change. One of the ways involved developing a new team to to improve ICT on a larger scale across the school. This was simple - when they learned of ways teachers were using ICT in their classrooms. 

Ciara is a Secondary School school teacher who aspired to excel in the secondary school interview process. However, she lacked the required knowledge and skills because she hadn’t learned that in college.

She discovered "Knock Their Socks Off Interview Skills for Teachers" course and decided to invest in it.

Reflecting on her experience with the course, Ciara stated, "It has a great structure to help you get your head around the Secondary School interview process and learn how to formulate the best answers."

The course greatly boosted her confidence, prepared her for the interview process and securing her job!

Megan felt that having a professional review of her CV and cover letter was the last investment she would make in her teaching career. Her objective was to secure a permanent contract and having been from contract to contract in the past, she was ready to give it her all.

Shortly after her CV review with me, Megan was invited to an interview for an RPT contract. The interviewing principal said “your application stood out”. 

Next, she worked with me for her re-interview preparation. Her mock interview tips gave her confidence and support going into the interview. She is very happy in her new role now and feels reassured that she has job security at last.
