After nearly a year of unemployment, I got a job. As someone who just turned 64 and doesn't plan to retire anytime soon, I am very pleased. I won over 2 men who are likely at least 20 years younger than me.
Your initial tools to do an analysis of personality to lead with and the suggested answers to common questions were indispensable.
Suggestions on how to handle the obvious fact that I am over 40 were very useful. I start very soon. What's the best is that after years of driving into Des Moines, IA, is that the job is right in town less than 2 miles from where I live.
Another hurdle that I had to get over was the job description required you to be able to lift 25-50 pounds. I'm a petite female who can easily lift 30 pounds. However, I applied anyway and when the screener asked if I could do 50 pounds, I was honest and told her what I could lift. So, I guess that proves that if you don't fit every qualification, you should apply anyway.
I really struggled with interviews prior to Interview Success Formula. The questionnaire formulated answers to the top 20 questions, and I feel much more confident. Most of my interviews are over the phone and this curriculum has really helped me to prepare, practice, and answer most questions. I've had my resume reviewed, and now thinking about more hiring more support through ISF with a role play interview.
I love ISF approach to delivering very good, up to date easy to use guidance with plenty of support.
For a very reasonable investment, the Interview Success Formula package provides a wealth of preparation information and tools to the job seeker. The webinars from Alan and his partners are very useful, and the topics are right on target for me (interviewing as an over-age-50 candidate, for example).
One of the best values for your money if you are actively seeking new employment! The reports and interview preparation crib sheets tailored to me were a fantastic start to the preparation process.
The Interview Success Formula is an outstanding resource to prepare professionals to effectively challenge themselves to grow, identify opportunities and gain a clear advantage vs. competing candidates in the interview process.
Hello,
I am here to summarize my experience with this ISF. I purchased the program at the end of June 2019. I went through the program with a fine tooth comb. I had an interview with a Doviaion 1 university and two interviews with the government. One was with the Dept. of the Navy in mid July and also, the Air Force Academy Prep School in Colorado Springs, both were GS-09 positions. I was actually offered the university position but turned it down for a better position. Well, I ended up landing the Navy position as an Athletic Trainer working with Recruits at Parris Island Marine Corps. Recruiting Depot, SC. Great benefits and a work life balance to die for. I make more money and work less hours than I would have at the collegiate level as an Athletic Trainer. This program works and helped me navigate the interview process with better answers that convinced the government to take a chance on me. So, huge Thank You Alan Carniol.
All the Best,
Scott Williams, ATC
I want to thank Interview Success Formula and you, Alan, for the scope and wisdom of your program along with the support you've offered during a very uncertain period in my life. I'm especially grateful for the knowledge, confidence, and strategies you provided for an often frustratingly opaque process. Your daily emails of wisdom, encouragement, and hope provided insight and motivation. My experience is you're providing an excellent servicefar exceeding what you're charging. You are a very creative thinker (and writer) and I HIGHLY recommend this program for developing a strategy and course of action for being the very best choice for the job, since I landed mine!
I used ISF for my job search, and without it, I am confident that I would not be working starting Monday! Alan and the staff at ISF are amazing. At Interview Success Formula, they really do care about helping people be successful with the (oh-so-complicated and discouraging) process of looking for work. I am a 58 y/o female that never imagined herself in this position and thank God for Alan, this program, and all that he did to help me. Without their help, I know that I would still be unemployed and the money for this service is nothing compared to the value of all the help they gave me. I highly recommend getting as many of his programs as you need and it is totally worth it. I had crib sheets, personal skills assessments, webinars, research, daily helps and emails forms, etc. But the thing I liked the most was that these people really are right there with you, EVERY STEP OF THE WAY! They walked me thru the process and help is but an email away! What other company gives you personalized service? Alan and his staff email daily and respond right away if you email them with a question or a situation. Job hunting has gotten really hard, but Alan and the Interview Success Program can help you in so many ways! (If you are looking for work, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND INTERVIEW SUCCESS FORMULA. Consider the cost an investment in your future and it is minimal for all this program can do for you. Thank you Alan and staff. I really hope I don't need your services again, but ya never know and I will always be grateful that I got your help!
Interview success helped me feel confident and articulate during a job interview. I was offered a job one day after using it.
Now a days every people have lake of confidence just because of it. They don't get a good job.It helps to increase confidence.
You would think that you are the right fit for a certain job but you get surprised by not making it and most of the time it's because you did not present yourself properly. This course shows you how to prepare yourself for the interview process and in an effective way.
I'm usually very nervous in interviews. But after preparing myself with the tools they offered I was confident and ready. I was shocked when I was asked the exact same questions I prepared for. I felt like the interviewers were more nervous than I was. Even more surprising is I landed the job. This has been a life changing event for me.
I had been out of the job market for 13 years, having been with the same employer. When I decided to leave my position to better align my work with my core values, I realized I needed to strategize my job search and prepare for interviewing. This program, the self assessment and crib sheet helped me craft my answers and articulate my skills and relevant experiences with confidence.
After getting my self assessment and crib sheets, I was able to clearly communicate who I am to interviewers on the phone and in person! I got this on May 22nd and was offered a position on June 10th! I have recommended this to family and friends! Very Impressed! Thank you Alan!
The interview course helped me to pull my skills together in a way that I felt comfortable presenting myself. The survey and crib sheet helped me to gain insight into myself and gave me confidence as I face the job market. It's been over 10 years since I've been on an interview.
I had my first job interview in over 20yrs. With the help of The Success Formula I was able to breeze through the interview with confidence. In just a weekend this program gave me the tools I needed to ace the interview and I did. I was offered the job I wanted. The Success Formula is easy to use and understand. The worksheets help focus on what's important. There is an abundance of information but it's set up in a comprehensive manner. I would and have recommended this program to several people I know. I would buy it again in a heartbeat, but it's available online for a lifetime. I will most certainly use it in the future for promotions.
My movement to new country was quite stressful. I did not know how need to answer a lot of questions. The Success Formula has given necessary information, thereby increasing my confidence.
The program is amazing, comprehensive and very effective. After months of searching with no result (30 interviews, 4 months of searching and traveling over 2,000 miles to interview) I started the program. The program offers concrete steps and things I did to improve my interview tactics. After making many changes to my interview style I was offered TWO jobs after only one and a half months! It took These people are the real deal!
I want to say thank you. Your valuable advice on how to handle the interview process really helped me much, Although my resume is impressive and I was getting interview calls, I was not able to understand what it is exactly that employers wanted to hear. I really paid attention to your advice finally, last week, and today, after 2 months' relentless searching and interviewing, landed a contract position- which I am hoping would convert into a stable placement in due time. It's a very tough market - but I'm at least not without a job. So, Thank you again! :)
Answer: Hi Riyadh, One thing you may want to take a look at is the Customized Interview Preparation plan as that will give you some guidance on how to navigate different types of interviews such as the panel interview that you will be facing. If you have a specific question, you are welcome to email us and a member of our team will be happy to answer you. If you are looking for a personal coach to advise you though, that would be outside of the course. Best of luck with the upcoming interview.
Answer: Hi Jonelle! Congratulations on your graduation and on the upcoming interview. In today's healthcare environment, it's critical how nurses relate to and support patients. So you'll need to tell stories related to helping others - in nursing or elsewhere. All your life experience will help there, and our program will guide you through how to tell those stories. ISF will also help you articulate your strengths and motivations and other parts of yourself – where people sometimes have a hard time articulating the words. The Formula won’t answer technical skills questions like how do you respond if a patient is coding. It will help you present who you are more effectively and prove your value. Thanks for your note, and best of luck in the upcoming interview. Best, Alan
Answer: Hi Shell, The program is all online. You can access it within minutes of clicking placing order. We have a no questions guarantee for 90 days.
Answer: Hi Renee, It sure does. Performance based interviews are all about giving compelling example stories from your past work experience. We have special modules that focus just on this, including the personally customized StoryWeaver report. I hope that helps.
Answer: Hi CF, Yes, it would apply. When we launched, there were a lot of nurses looking for support. So we actually have custom healthcare job search worksheets included in our bonuses section. You would still need to practice on your own for technical questions, like, "What do you do if a patient shows these symptoms..."
Answer: Hi Manessa, Most of our clients are at the manager level or above. At the leadership level, they are looking for your ability to understand the big picture current situation and see around the corners, and develop solutions to this. This means you want to have ready examples from your past of what you have done, research to understand the current situation and an idea of how you will approach the role when you step into it. These are topics we talk about in the program.
Answer: Hi Charlene, I apologize for any confusion. We updated our pricing about a year ago to reflect the added features we've included in the program.
Answer: Hi Pallab, Our program has helped job seekers from 17 to 82. It's for anyone looking to improve their interview performance and get an edge over the competition. Yes, the program would be perfect for the non-technical side of IT job interviews.
Answer: Hi Brenda, Thanks for the question! Inside of our members area is a tool called the Customized Interview Preparation Plan, which gives you advice on different types of interview situations, a phone interview versus a panel interview, a first interview versus a final interview, etc. So that can definitely help with that piece. In regards to personality, I am not sure whether you mean they want to understand culturally how you would fit, whether you would be taken through a formal assessment, or whether you would be asked to shared stories and examples that describe your personality. The program can give you some strong guidance, on the first and third possibility, and less on the second.
Answer: Hi Ash, While I can give a number of reasons why I believe in this program and share client success stories, what I'd suggest instead is to simply give the program a try for yourself. We offer a no-questions asked money-back guarantee. So if the program isn't right for you, just send us an email, and we can issue you a refund.
