Brian helped me get my first job offer from a Fortune 500 company. He developed a highly effective job search strategy for me. He has exceptional writing skills and career coaching advice. He expertly revised my resume and rebranded my LinkedIn profile and I noticed I started getting more interviews almost immediately. I also can’t thank him enough for helping me prepare for interviews. His approach was extremely thorough and strategic. He was direct in pointing out weaknesses in my responses and coached me on how to answer more effectively. Brian provided valuable guidance on salary negotiation, which helped me secure a more competitive offer. Brian also advised me on my transition from a conventional corporate management role into admissions consulting work. I highly recommend Brian to anyone looking to increase their chances of landing their dream job.

I have known Stu for two years. He has been an invaluable mentor and peer support when I transitioned into coaching myself. I would highly recommend Stu to Leland Coaching.

Casey is an amazing coach!! She helped me with my casing as a fellow MBA at Kellogg — and I got a position at BCG! She was incredibly patient, smart, and insightful. I was lucky to have her as my coach.

Casey leads the pack in consulting interviews! Her experience both in interview prep and real life consulting at BCG shines through every time she runs a case or behavioral prep. Her experience leading "Large Group Trainings" at Kellogg School of Management shine through. There, she co-led a semester of 200 person lectures about interview prep, from the basics to the final touches. Casey insightfully works through every case or behavioral practice making it feel like real life, and she provides prompt feedback. She is professional, yet personable. I would enthusiastically recommend Casey to my closest friends!

Working with Becky was one of the best decisions I made during my MBA journey. I initially partnered with her for two US schools and later consulted her for targeted feedback on essays across other applications. Despite having some weaknesses in my profile (scores), Becky was incredibly empathetic and never let me feel discouraged. She provided thoughtful, strategic guidance to bring out my strengths with clarity and authenticity. Her deep knowledge of US schools, in particular, was invaluable—she helped me tailor my narrative with precision. Thanks to her support, I secured admission to one of my top choices and couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

Whether you're a veteran job searcher or just starting to feel the frustrations of the process, Aaron is the person you need to work with. He's not a random self-proclaimed guru, he is THE expert. He deeply understands the ins and outs of the job search, hiring, and interviewing processes and isn't afraid to share his wealth of knowledge because he wants to see you win, too. As someone who went into the job search process unsure of what I wanted and preemptively defeated about my odds, I walked away with 10x more confidence in myself and a job offer that I couldn't have dreamed of because of Aaron's coaching. I can't recommend him enough!

Stu and I have been working together professionally as coaches for almost five years and he’s the real deal. He is thoroughly invested in his practice and ongoing consideration of the impact he can have for his clients. His credentials and heartfelt testimonials speak for themselves. Stu’s warm, focused and authentic presence draw from an impressive set of skills and experiences from his previous career but he has found his “Ikigai” with coaching. If Stu’s in your corner you will have a powerful ally, whatever journey you’re on.

Utku gave me thoughtful and honest feedback about my MBA decision & application. He has been an amazing coach!

Stu was my coach when I was looking at leaving my current job and starting a business of my own. I had never had any career coaching and Stu opened my eyes to a whole new world of assessing where I was and where I wanted to be. When I'm asked to explain how Stu helped, I tell people that each session with him was like the clouds lifting and I could visualise my skill sets, knowledge and experience in clearer and more helpful terms. There were other benefits from working with Stu as well, such as podcast or book recommendations that he thought would help. One of the books I read completely transformed my thinking regarding working for myself! The upshot of this is I am now leaving my current role, have set up my own consultancy and am looking at a brighter future, whatever happens. I will be going back to Stu whenever I feel I would benefit from more coaching. I can't reccomend him highly enough.

Aaron is the best writer and interview coach — I repeat, the BEST. Aaron really cares about your motivation and backstory, and has a rare talent for turning something good into something great. I would never have landed interviews at HBS, GSB, Sloan, and Booth without his personalized support. When it comes to interview prep, Aaron is even sharper. As a longtime hiring manager, he knows exactly how to help you express yourself clearly and effectively. He’s candid, direct, and focused on real improvement — no sweet-talking or sugar-coating.
