I have already said to my Mum and Dad that I felt privileged to be involved in this pilot workshop. Even just to be in a call with people all in the same position and to hear you and Helen give advice was really reassuring and useful. Thanks,

I contacted Mike during my A-Levels for help applying to internships for my gap year. From the very first session, Mike’s guidance was invaluable. He helped me restructure my CV to highlight my strengths and tailor it to the roles I was targeting. His advice on interview techniques was particularly useful—I went into my interviews with a clear strategy, prepared answers for common questions, and the confidence to tackle unexpected ones.

Mike also took the time to understand my interests and career goals, helping me identify the right internships for my skill set. His workshops were not only informative but also highly interactive, making it easy to apply what I had learnt. Thanks to his support, I secured an internship that perfectly aligned with my goals, giving me an excellent head start in my career.

I had a number of video calls with Mike where we thoroughly covered answers for a variety of questions that could be asked at the interview stage as well as what to do if I was asked a question that I wasn’t expecting so that I could remain calm and answer it competently. My self-confidence going into the interview had been greatly increased thanks to Mike, acknowledging that I knew how to answer all types of questions that could potentially arise. Thanks to Mike I passed the interview stage and was overjoyed to receive a call offering me a place at my dream flight school.

Mike’s help was invaluable in helping me secure a graduate job. He gave me so much confidence in my ability even when I was feeling quite demoralised by the lengthy application processes! I particularly benefited from Mike’s advice to formulate my interview answers in a structured, story-like way to engage the interviewer. He went above and beyond my expectations, providing me tailored, personalised advice throughout the process, and overall being a thoughtful, knowledgable and inspirational mentor. I can’t thank Mike enough for his help and for helping me believe in myself as much as he did!
