"That didn't sound like me."
If you've ever walked out of an interview feeling this way, you're not alone.
Here's what's actually happening: You have the experience and the skills—you just haven't learned how to translate them into interview language yet.
And nobody teaches this.
That's changing next Monday.
I'm hosting **The Reality Check** — a free session where I'm breaking down what interviews actually measure and exactly how to speak their language.
📅 February 10
⏰ 12-1pm EST
💻 Virtual (link after registration)
💰 Free
You'll learn:
✓ The 3 unspoken questions every interviewer asks
✓ Why qualified isn't enough
✓ The PAR framework that structures credible answers
✓ How to turn volunteer work and student projects into professional credibility
This is for early-career professionals, recent grads, and anyone who feels like interviews are a guessing game.
