Best for anyone prepping for MBB case interviews who wants to practice with real interview-style questions and see exactly how a structured answer should look.

The 2026 AI Job Market, Decoded: Which Track Is Your Career On?

The AI job market didn't shrink, it split. I coach PMs, TPMs, and AI/ML professionals to land on the right side of that line. By day, I'm a Senior Engineering Program Manager at Apple working on AI-powered search and safety, where I sit on the hiring and evaluation side of exactly the roles my clients are targeting. Before Apple, I spent years in autonomous vehicles at Uber ATG and Aurora, so I've lived through one AI hype cycle already and know what actually gets people hired when the market shifts under them. I'm also an ICF-PCC certified coach with a master's in I/O Psychology from Purdue, which means our sessions aren't just resume tweaks. We work on how you tell your story, how you interview under pressure, and how you build a portfolio of evidence that beats any credential. What we can work on together: Positioning for AI/ML PM and TPM roles, including full interview loop prep Resume and narrative overhauls that lead with finished work, not job titles Career strategy: which track your role is on, and the moves that compound from here Executive presence, stakeholder management, and the senior skills now expected at every level I've coached clients into roles at OpenAI and top AI companies, and I've written two books on career growth and working with AI. If you want a plan built around your career instead of the averages, book a session and let's map it out.

Build Your First AI Agent: Put AI to Work on Real Tasks

By the end of this session, you will have built a working AI agent that can handle a real task autonomously, not just generate text. We'll cover how to define an agent's goal and tools, how to connect it to external actions like browsing or sending data, and how to avoid the common setup mistakes that cause agents to loop or fail silently. Attending live means you can describe your specific use case and get a direct answer about whether your approach will work, something a recording cannot give you. The coach builds and deploys AI agents in production and will share the decision-making framework they use when scoping what an agent should and should not handle on its own.

MBB Math Guide

The interviewer slides a number across the table, the mental clock starts, and a perfectly capable person goes silent, scrawls something unlabeled in a corner of the page, and produces an answer with no idea whether it's plausible. This guide fixes that. It distills MBB quantitative interviewing down to the seven patterns that show up again and again: market sizing, breakeven, profitability trees, ROI and payback, the margin-versus-markup trap, capacity and utilization, and unit economics. It works each one through a full, spoken-aloud solution, the way you'd actually deliver it in the room. You'll learn to frame the equation before you calculate, round aggressively and say so, sanity-check every number against the real world, and close with the one sentence that separates a calculator from a consultant.

MBB Market Sizing Guide

You can get the number right and still fail the case. MBB interviewers aren't scoring your arithmetic; they're scoring whether you stated the equation before you computed, whether you caught that transactions aren't cups, whether you know an installed base from an annual sales flow and whether you finished with the business implication instead of the number. This guide is seven cases, ordered by difficulty, each written the way the question actually appears in a real interview: clarifying questions worth asking, the trap that catches the average candidate, a full worked answer, and a breakdown of what separates a strong one. You'll size: + Disposable cups at a national coffee chain + Airport throughput two independent ways + UK pet insurance + German elevator maintenance + US EV fast-charging in 2030 + An AI radiology product with no observable price + US residential HVAC

Experience Translation: International Resume & Narrative Alignment

A highly practical, diagnostic tool engineered by Caolan Hunter to help professionals translate their domestic track records into universally understood markers of executive value. The resource addresses a critical cross-border bottleneck: the reality that local reputation, regional company prestige, and market-specific job titles do not automatically migrate across international borders. Designed for automated screening systems (ATS) and overseas recruiters, this checklist breaks down the conversion process into four actionable layers: 1. Company Scale & Brand Legibility: Methodologies for translating unknown local corporate brands into universal operational scale metrics ($USD revenue, headcount, or global analogues). 2. Role, Scope & Title Alignment: Frameworks to standardize idiosyncratic job titles and explicitly quantify geographic, budgetary, and cross-cultural management scope. 3. Jargon Elimination: Practical strategies to scrub region-bound acronyms, local compliance codes, and niche tools, reframing them into universal commercial business outcomes. 4. The Post-Move Narrative Check: Features the Coherence Sentence Formula, a strategic tool designed to eliminate lifestyle-driven motivations and replace them with rigorous commercial logic that global hiring managers respect.
