I highly recommend Elizabeth and the interview skills clinic. Elizabeth helped me prepare for an interview for a Civil Service Grade 6 role and the three sessions gave me the confidence and skills needed to get the job. As someone who has struggled with interviews in the past I now have the skills to confidently tackle senior Civil Service interviews for the years to come. Elizabeth has a complete understanding the civil service behaviours and interview format so it felt like getting insider knowledge which proved to be essential. Thanks again to Elizabeth and the team.

Elizabeth is an outstanding interview coach whom I highly recommend. Her sessions helped me overcome insecurities as a non-native speaker working in higher education, boosting my confidence and highlighting my skills and abilities. Elizabeth’s calm and kind attitude helped me to stay grounded, but also guided me back to my strengths when I felt lost during the interview, ultimately leading to the attainment of my dream job. I am immensely grateful for her support and look forward to future collaborations.

Elizabeth is a very supportive coach. I was applying for a Business Analyst role and within an hour of a second interview I was called back by the company to let me know that they really liked me and offered me the job. I thought I knew how to use the STAR approach before but Elizabeth has a unique interpretation of it and I was complimented on my response. What really helped me was the way she broke the STAR up for me in a way which was relevant to the role and sector I was going for. My interview felt much more like a conversation. I learnt a lot and feel so much more confident in interviews

After five years abroad,I decided to re enter the London job market. Having used Elizabeth's services before, I did not hesitate to contact her again. With her guidance and support I was successful in getting offers from multiple companies. Elizabeth is sincere and cares about her clients and their job satisfaction beyond the remit of her role as an interview coach, her many years of experience give her a discerning eye and she can predict in a very short space of time what her clients need and how to get them from A to B. I would recommend her wholeheartedly. She also goes out of her way to make time for her clients and is very punctual and organised.

Interview coaching with Matt was exactly what I needed. My skills were rusty and I'd lost confidence. I really liked Matt's direct but supportive approach. I was out of my comfort zone during the sessions (which was good!) but through practice my confidence grew and learning took place. I now have an excellent structure to work with for future interviews. I'm very grateful for Matt's help. Thank you.

I was feeling insecure in my communication skills when I met with Elizabeth for a mock interview. Her knowledge paired with her straightforward approach meant that in one hour we had covered a number of actionable insights that instantly boosted my confidence. I walked into the interview with a clear plan (and renewed belief in my competence) and dare I say I even enjoyed it! Thank you for doing what you do!

Matthew has been incredibly supportive and helpful throughout my application process (on multiple occasions. With his support, I was able to land my first civil service role. He put a lot of effort and enthusiasm into every session. His techniques were incredibly helpful and I have learnt skills that I will continue to use throughout my career. Couldn’t recommend more.

Elizabeth is a fabulous coach. Following her coaching, I had two coaching sessions I got a senior programme manager role in the Civil Service, it was a very complex role. I offered the job and I was told my interview was excellent!! Elizabeth gave me such detailed and insghtful feedabck I was able to reshape all my Behaviour answers and went into the interview feeling much more confident. Thank you Elizabeth

Elizabeth's coaching made a huge difference. I was struggling with getting a permanent role at the University despite knowing I had all the experience I needed. The interview was challenging with lots of situational questionsand I didn't know where I was going wrong. Elizabeth was able to demonstrate how to rephase my answers in a way which the Interviewers wanted. We had two coaching sessions and her advice was invaluable, the interview went exceptionally well and I got the job. Thank you so much for your time and support.

I had never done a UK Civil Service interview, and had never worked with a coach before - and I needed urgent help to prepare for an application. I found Mathew Eastlake during an online search and I had no idea what to expect. 4 sessions later I can honestly say it was probably the best investment of my life. Not only did Matt help me ace the interview and secure the role, but during our sessions I also learned so much more about my strengths and weaknesses. In just 4 sessions I learned how to focus my answers and present myself in the best possible way. I could not have gotten the role without Matt - that is the truth. If you need help preparing for an interview you have reached the best possible team to work with. Don't hesitate. THANK YOU !!!!
I was in two minds as to whether interview coaching would make much of a difference but after a chat with Elizabeth I felt that she completely understood my interview nerves and lack of confidence and crucially knew how to turn it around. I can’t thank Elizabeth enough for her support and assistance. She revolutionised my interview preparation, hugely increased my confidence and put me in good stead for my upcoming interviews. I only wish that I’d gone to her sooner and saved months of failed interviews because we dramatically improved my interview performance and I received a job offer shortly after our sessions. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth – she is worth every penny!
Clare, I couldn’t be more pleased for you. No more talking quietly! Let them know how good you are.
Failed an interview miserably one week, had a 1:1 session with Elizabeth the next week, got offered a job 2 hours after another interview the following week.
The success of that interview was a direct result of Elizabeths training, which enabled me to prepare really well and I was so much more confident going in. As a freelance Project Manager in Financial Services, being successful in interviews is a necessity, so can’t say thanks enough.
I also now have my stack of interview prep cards and Elizabeths guidance notes to put in the toolkit for next time, no doubt I’ll need to come back for a refresher when this contract is coming to an end!
Thank you Martin. You’d picked up a few bad habits but are a natural communicator.
Ashleigh what a lovely thing to say. Remember you always had the same skills I just gave you the confidence to promote your skills in the interview. Enjoy the job.
I was very nervous before my interview and found Elizabeth online via this website, got in touch with her and never looked back! I sent her my job description, and based on that she devised questions for me to practice. She was able to give me advice on areas to improve, and several questions that we practised together actually came up in my interview. I can’t recommend her enough, she prepared me in every way possible for my interview (at short notice) and I found it so beneficial as my nerves on the day were much more controlled than I expected. It was excellent preparation and complete value for money in my book, as I was offered the job! I have recommended her to my colleagues who applied for the same position but failed, as I feel she made all the difference. I had an interview in January which I didn’t feel went very well, but came out of this interview full of confidence and knowing I had done everything I could possibly do. If you really want the job book a session with Elizabeth!
I would like to start my feedback saying that is definitely worth it!
Very professional and at the same time relaxed meeting. She researched beforehand about the company you want to join so that the preparation interview resembles the most to the one expected. Her knowledge about the qualities required by the candidates is very accurate and her advices if followed will definitely get you the job you are looking for.
There is always something to improve and I am sure she will know what will make you better, boosting your confidence and making you realise how much little and subtle thing are important to be successful.
Hi Andrea, I knew how much you wanted the job so I’m delighted and excited for you.
I spent four hours with Elizabeth, working on my presentation and interview skills, ahead of an assessment centre for a solicitor’s training contract. Elizabeth was able to tell me exactly where I needed to improve and (more importantly) gave me confidence in the skills that I had but doubted.
There is nothing like practice as preparation and these sessions are a great investment when you consider the potential reward for performing at your best during the interview. I secured the training contract and would recommend this training to anyone.
Thank you Tim. You worked hard but it was worth it. You’ll have some great opportunities on the legal trainee scheme. Enjoy.
I found my interview sessions with Elizabeth to be very useful. The questions were tailored to replicate the company that was going to interview me. Elizabeth provided much useful feedback on my body language, tone and structure of my answers. I saw the improvement in my interview technique very early on and I’m pleased to say that I’ve recently gained a fantastic position on a teacher training scheme, with the view for me to work full time at the school afterwards. Thanks Elizabeth!
The 1-2-1 coaching sessions with Elizabeth where the best . My role was being made redundant and I had not been for a interview for seven years . I rang Elizabeth and from the first call she was a pleasure to deal with.
Always remember my first session and thinking I can’t do this . I will never be able to sit a interview but all the coaching and how to answer questions etc really paid off.
I saw improvement every time and elizabeth made me feel confident about myself.
I had 3 sessions and it was money well spent. I learnt so much about myself and I secured promotion which I’m still In shock about.
Having not been for a interview for seven years and getting the first job I applied for was amazing!
Thank you for all your help Elizabeth
After trying to get a graduate job for over a year within two months of working with Elizabeth I have been accepted on an excellent graduate scheme. Elizabeth completely changed how I approached interviews as well as helping me improve my CV and covering letters. I used to dread interviews and saw them as stressful rather than positive experiences, This has changed since I have had coaching. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone and am very grateful to her for helping me have more confidence and reach my full potential.
Thank you very much to Elizabeth, the coaching was incredibly helpful in building up my confidence and also in teaching me how to properly prepare for an interview. I managed to get the first job that I applied for following the coaching, so am very grateful for the training I received.
Elizabeth is not only an outstanding coach, she will give you the best advice, preparation and coaching you need to be at your best during all your interviews. What impressed me the most was the rapidity she can see the weakness in my answers. The advice, coaching and recommendations she teaches are on target and proved invaluable as I went through the various interviews. It was a real privilege and pleasure to be coached by Elizabeth
I just wanted to express my heartfelt appreciation to you for the work you did with me in preparing for my airline interviews were I was successful.
Thank you again for your great work with me.
Thanks Alex, sorry for my delay I’ve been away for a week. When I fly next I shall be listening out for your voice! You made a huge commitment to be a pilot, a career change, location and investment in your own training. I am pleased to have been able to help you at the final stage. I so pleased for you!
