Monthly Cohort Program Overview

The Monthly Cohort is a four-session, expert-led program designed to enhance your interview skills and boost your confidence in securing your dream job.

Each session focuses on a specific interview format—phone/Zoom screenings, behavioral interviews, hiring manager interviews, and panel interviews—providing hands-on practice through mock interviews and personalized feedback.

With targeted preparation tips, storytelling techniques, and actionable strategies, this program equips participants to navigate any interview with professionalism and ease.

Session 1

Phone / Zoom Screen

This session focuses on phone and video screening interviews, a common first step with hiring managers. We'll discuss how to prepare, set clear salary expectations, and make a positive first impression over the phone and video.

Each participant will have a 20-minute mock phone interview, covering typical questions. We'll conclude with a group feedback session to help everyone refine their approach and learn from one another.

We'll work on storytelling techniques and how to structure responses using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result). This session will focus on presenting your experiences in a compelling way.

Each participant will have a 25-minute hiring manager-style mock interview, with a 20-minute feedback session afterward to discuss storytelling and readiness.

The final session will simulate a panel interview with multiple interviewers, including an HR representative, technical interviewer, hiring manager, and peer interviewer.

Each participant will have a 40-45 minute panel interview, followed by a 20-minute feedback session. Feedback may be provided in written, recorded, or live formats.
