The Interview Intensive is a three-hour, deadline-driven prep session for MBA candidates with an interview days away. I review your resume and essays in advance so we spend zero time on intake and all of it on preparation that matters. What we cover: Profile triage — an honest, adcom-calibrated read on how your interviewer will see your candidacy and what they're likely to probe. Story spine — we lock in your four core narratives until they feel natural, not memorized. Career arc, personal anchor, strongest professional story, leadership example. Vulnerability mapping — we identify the two or three questions specific to your profile that could derail the interview, and work through exactly how to handle each one. Full mock interview — a complete 30-minute simulation at real interview pressure. School-specific questions. No stopping mid-answer. Live debrief — direct feedback on what landed, what needs sharpening, and what your delivery is doing that you can't see yourself. Written follow-up — your personal Interview Intensive brief delivered within 24 hours including debrief notes to re-read the morning of your interview.
A school-specific mock interview with real feedback — a complete simulation built around your program and profile, so you know exactly how your answers land before the real thing.
An honest vulnerability assessment — a direct read on what's coming and exactly how to handle it, from someone who has sat on the other side of the table.
A written Interview Intensive brief — delivered within 24 hours. Re-read it in ten minutes the morning of your interview.
Coaching delivered via live sessions and .
My coaching is structured, honest, and built around your deadline. I come to every session having already reviewed your materials, so we spend our time making real progress — not catching up. And I'll always tell you what's working and what isn't, because that's where the value is.
Sessions. All sessions are via video call. Sessions are scheduled mutually and confirmed at least 48 hours in advance. Cancellations. I ask for at least 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule a session. Late cancellations or no-shows may forfeit that session at my discretion. Life happens — I'll always try to be flexible when I can. Asynchronous Feedback. Written feedback on essays and all submitted materials is returned within 48 hours. I'll let you know if anything changes on my end. What I need from you. The best results come from candidates who show up prepared and engage actively between sessions. I'll always come ready — I ask the same in return. Results. I'm fully committed to helping you put forward your strongest possible application. While I can't guarantee admission outcomes — no ethical coach can — I can guarantee you'll submit something you're proud of or walk into your interview confident of your abilities.
