Framing experience
University projects, part-time work, internships — all of it is usable. The challenge is connecting it to the skills a professional employer actually cares about.
What makes graduate interviews hard
It's not about being underqualified. Most graduates in competitive programs are well-qualified. The gap is usually in how they talk about what they've done.
Explaining your direction
"Why this firm, why this role, why now?" For a graduate, this needs a real answer — not a rehearsed one. We build the genuine version.
Nerves in the room
First serious interview in a competitive environment. The nerves are real. Structured practice under realistic conditions is the only thing that actually addresses them.
What we actually work on
-
Your introduction. Ninety seconds that make the interviewer want to keep listening. We work on this until it's clean and natural.
-
STAR method for academic context. Behavioral questions don't require corporate experience. They require stories with impact — and you have those already.
-
Strategic questions for the interviewer. The questions you ask at the end say a lot about how seriously you're taking the role.
-
Professional basics. Etiquette, video setup, what to wear — practical stuff that's easy to overlook and harder to recover from if you get it wrong.
"I had no idea what to expect from a corporate interview. After a few sessions I had a structure and a version of my story that actually sounded professional. Got the offer I wanted first try."
Individual results may vary.
Questions
I have no full-time work experience. Is that a problem?
No. Graduate interviews are designed for people with limited professional experience. What matters is how you present what you do have — internships, university projects, volunteering, part-time roles. We make the most of it.
Which programs do you help prepare for?
Tech grad programs (Google, Atlassian, Canva), consulting graduate intake (McKinsey, Bain, BCG, big-four), finance and banking programs, law firm clerkships, and competitive entry roles in the medical sector.
Do you help with written applications too?
The main focus is interview preparation. That said, the narrative work we do together will make your written applications clearer too — it tends to carry over naturally.
How many sessions do most graduates need?
Usually two to four. One to build the foundation, one for mock practice, and one or two for refinement depending on how the first mock goes.
Are sessions available outside business hours?
Yes. Early mornings, evenings, and Saturday mornings are available for students who have university commitments during the day.
