Client Testimonial

💥𝘼𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝘾𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙃𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙙🥊

Imagine preparing for an interview by scripting every possible question.

You rehearse.
You memorize.
You perfect.

Then the interview starts…
…and they ask something unexpected.

Here’s the truth:
Interviewers aren’t grading you on perfection.

They’re subconsciously asking:

“Can I see myself working with this person?”

That’s bounded rationality at work.

Confidence + clarity > flawless answers.

And this is where LinkedIn quietly becomes part of the interview — long before the interview ever happens.

If I were job searching today (even while employed), here’s exactly how I’d be using LinkedIn 👇

1️⃣ Personal takeaways
Share lessons learned, reflections, and where you’re growing.
This shows self-awareness — a huge trust signal.

2️⃣ Best practices
Write as if you’re mentoring a colleague.
Talk tools, frameworks, and how you actually do your job.

3️⃣ Perspectives on industry news
Something is always happening in your industry.
Your perspective is what differentiates you.

4️⃣ Roundups of people you admire
Highlight leaders doing great work.
You’d be shocked how often this opens doors to conversations.

This isn’t “personal branding fluff.”

It’s pre-selling familiarity — so when you walk into an interview, you already feel known.

And speaking of the game we play that is job hunting, writing resumes, networking, LinkedIn’ing interviewing and negotiating, 🙋‍♂️ Rita came to me as a Deputy Compliance Officer with Lincare, seeking a more senior executive role focusing on compliance.

The resolutions we provided were:

👉 We completed 4 rounds of mock interviews, focusing on both behavioral and experiential questions.

👉 Building up her knowledge and confidence for each answer while following the Storytelling structure to ensure it was brief but impactful.

👉 Improved answers to ensure each is a specific win versus a general execution answer.

👉 Ideation of relatable accomplishments directly tied to the job description.

💥 Well, it worked!

💥 Rita sent me this message out of nowhere, which I just had to share! She landed not 1 but 2 offers including the new role she landed as a Chief Compliance Officer with Family First Homecare! Talk about a specific goal and a specific win! Way to go, Rita! LFG!

“Thank you matt. Appreciate all the support. You know I’m all in and our prep was Mega helpful.”
