Shambhavi clearly shows a lot of interview experience. Very engaged in the mock interview, and asked very specific questions that well simulate a real interview. She gave me very specific feedback and suggested path forward. Also sent me materials to review afterwards. Highly recommended.

I got an opportunity to have a session with Viraj for my resume review and mock interview for one of my aspiring job roles. Viraj offered me very relevant and focused suggestions customized for my aspirational job based on my past experiences. Mock interview was really an eye opener which made me realize some of the key points I lacked. Viraj not only rectified my shortcomings but also gave his personal suggestions on structuring the right answers while interviews. I highly recommend this service.
