Career Story That Gets You Hired is a 30 minute strategy session designed for Master’s level students and working professionals who have strong experience but struggle to communicate it clearly in interviews and networking conversations. At the professional level, hiring decisions are often shaped in the first 90 seconds based not just on credentials, but on how well a candidate signals value, judgment, and fit.
This session focuses on helping experienced candidates move beyond the resume walk through and present a compelling, confident career narrative without sounding scripted or generic.
Participants will learn what recruiters and hiring managers are actually listening for, why traditional “tell me about yourself” answers fall flat at the Master’s and professional level, and how to articulate experience in a way that reflects seniority and direction. The session introduces a practical career story framework that helps candidates connect their past experience to future roles, identify the patterns that define their professional value, and avoid common narrative mistakes that lead to confusion or underselling.
By the end of the session, attendees will have greater clarity on how to position themselves in competitive hiring environments, a structured approach to communicating their career story across interviews and networking conversations, and a clear diagnosis of what needs refinement to make their story interview-ready.
The session is ideal for MBA and MS students, career switchers, and professionals with several years of experience who want their background to land clearly and confidently with employers.
