Working with Kira was one of the best investments I made in my job search. I came in with experience but needed someone who could sharpen my approach and give me real insight into how the process actually works, not just interview tips, but what recruiters are actually thinking and doing at each stage. Kira delivered that and much more. She has a rare ability to demystify the recruitment process in a way that makes you feel informed and confident rather than reactive. She broke down networking in a way that genuinely shifted my perspective, dismantling assumptions I'd carried for years and replacing them with a framework that actually felt natural to execute. Her interview prep was concrete and tactical, with specific skills and framing to develop rather than vague advice. And throughout the entire process, she was generous with her time, warm, clear in her guidance, and a genuine partner every step of the way, celebrating wins alongside me and keeping momentum when things felt uncertain. I ended up as a finalist for two competing roles at Google and Meta, and accepted the Meta offer. If you want a coach who will truly meet you where you are, bring real insider perspective, and show up as a genuine advocate for your success, Kira is exceptional. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Brian was truly a spectacular coach. During my job search, not only did he offer his vast network to me right away, but he immediately pivoted from interview prep to offer negotiation and didn't miss a beat. Whatever I had a question on, Brian had a thoughtful answer based on his years and years of executive leadership. No question would I use Brian again!

Explained Flaw and Assumption questions in a way that greatly demystified them for me

Emily told me she'd be direct and wouldn't pull her punches on feedback, which is definitely what you want in a coach / advisor. But what she failed to mention was how kind, passionate, and action-oriented she would also be! I never felt lost with feedback, and always knew what my next step was to get my applications in on time and in shining formats. She really challenged me to dig deep and I learned a lot about myself through the MBA application process. Would recommend Emily wholeheartedly, she really shines in skill but also her human and empathetic investment in your dreams and goals!

I came to Emily with what can only be described as an unhinged idea: apply to four M7 MBA programs in 2-3 weeks, start to finish. Her first response: "You're crazy." Her second: "Let's do it." Emily jumped into the deep end with me as I researched schools, prepped for the GRE, and worked essays across schools in parallel. What stood out most was her ability to pressure test my thinking. She really challenged me on my "why," and helped me connect the dots across my career progress thus far and my short- and long-term goals. The result: I landed a spot at my dream school. If you're looking for a coach who brings both rigor and energy to match your ambitions (even when your ambition borders on irrational) Emily is your person!

Easily one of the best tutors on Leland. He helped me prepare for my Rice interview and coached me on how to approach and answer common questions with confidence. I highly recommend working with him, you’ll genuinely notice the difference.

Avery was very professional and gave helpful feedback as I was preparing for my interview at Yale. She helped me feel more comfortable and ready for interview day. Would recommend if you are looking for interview practice!

Amanda's service extends above and beyond her price. She challenged me to dig deeper and go the extra mile which led to a significantly stronger product. I appreciate her contributions immensely, and you would be wise to book with her!!

I came to Kelsey to get R2 MBA help. She is proactive with her approach and does not just see you as a client. She actively tries to be on your side and guides you throughout the process. Kelsey is fully aware of the emotions at play and sets out a clear a plan of action to attack the multiple different layers of the process. I have received help all the way from getting my resume to be perfect, to interview preparation. I would recommend her to any MBA applicant.

I had a great experience working with Connor to prepare for product manager interviews. Even on short notice, he put together thoughtful, high-quality mock interviews that closely mirrored the real process. His feedback was clear and useful in sharpening my PM vocabulary and communication. I felt noticeably more confident going into interviews after our sessions.
