About “Mastering the job interview”

Learn what hiring managers really seek in candidates

You have a compelling LinkedIn profile and an engaging resume. You made it past the ATS algorithms. You caught the eye of the recruiter. And you were invited for an interview. Now, all you need to do is nail it and the job is yours. Not quite! There’s still an essential part of the equation you need to complete: PREPARATION.

Unfortunately, over 95% of job seekers fail the interview because they don’t adequately prepare. That’s not going to be you. This MasterClass and its learning materials are a bulletproof guide to nailing every interview with step-by-step instructions on how to stand out from the competition.

Bonus Guide

The Ultimate Guide to Interview Questions

Standing out in an interview means giving confident answers and asking thoughtful questions of your own.

You’ll also learn which questions you should ask and what companies are really looking for.

The JobLeads MasterClasses are the best and most disruptive career coaching resources on the planet! The advice, from creating a streamlined resume, putting together a focused LinkedIn profile to preparing me for an interview, has helped a lot. Convenient, relevant, interactive, and way more affordable than the personal coaching I've used in the past. I know the right position is out there for me and JobLeads supports me on the journey of finding it.

I hadn’t thought about headhunters until I saw this masterclass on my JobLeads dashboard. I clicked on it straight away and watched the entire course in one session. The presenter spoke clearly and didn’t use complicated language. I liked the visuals and music. The masterclass inspired me to begin contacting headhunters. I’m already in contact with several. Thanks, JobLeads!

The masterclass was excellent. I often get approached by headhunters and recruiters on LinkedIn. In the past I ignored them because I thought they were spamming me. Now I understand better how they work. I’ve just begun looking for a new job, so I’m researching and reaching out to headhunters who contact me instead of ignoring them. I’ve also been using JobLeads to find headhunters in my area. I will go back and watch some of the lessons again when I’m ready to screen some.

I’m so glad I found this masterclass. In 6 months, I did 30 interviews and got only 1 offer, 20K below my salary. I kept interviewing, hoping to improve, but only felt more anxious. This course showed me how crucial preparation is. I’d never prepared properly before, and JobLeads explained it perfectly. The sample Q&As and 30-60-90 day plans made a huge difference. Now I’m getting 2nd and 3rd rounds, and I’m reviewing 2 offers. Like the presenter says: prepare, prepare, prepare!

I’ve been a JobLeads Premium Member for 6 months and already found it a great service. When they added free MasterClasses, I watched them all. The interview one is my favorite since interviewing is not my strength and I’m focused on finding a new job. The presenter’s energetic style makes it easy to follow, and I learned how to prepare deeply, practice, and even ask the right questions to see if a job is the right fit. The virtual interviewing lesson was especially valuable in today’s environment.

I was always confused about recruiters vs. headhunters and didn’t realize how valuable headhunters could be for someone like me. The JobLeads MasterClass gave me clear insight into how they work, where to find them, and how to make my CV and LinkedIn more attractive. The downloadable spreadsheet makes it easy to track my contacts, and overall the course has made me feel much more confident in working with headhunters. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone serious about their job search.

Fantastic. I’ve watched the masterclass three times this week, because I have 6 interviews coming up. The masterclass couldn’t have come at a better time. I’m not scared about the process anymore. I now have a clear strategy for every interview. I feel confident.

Good job, JobLeads! I learned a lot. Jan Hendrik showed me many features to make my profile more attractive. He even told me about a LinkedIn feature to help people pronounce my name. As someone with a complicated name to pronounce if you’re not Irish, I was happy to learn about it. I went through my profile and improved it based on Jan Hendrik’s advice. My profile views have gone from 10-15 a week to 100+! Now that I’ve updated my profile, I’m not embarrassed to use the ‘Easy Apply’ function on LinkedIn anymore, either.

I used to avoid LinkedIn, thinking it was just a Business Facebook. I watched this MasterClass expecting to confirm that, but instead I discovered powerful features I never used and learned how many recruiters are active there. Before, I got profile views but little contact. After updating my profile, 5 headhunters reached out within days, and I’m already discussing an exciting career move. I’m so glad I took this course!

I’ve been in sales for over 20 years, but I didn’t have a LinkedIn profile. I always made excuses about being too busy or not needing it. I watched the masterclass out of curiosity. I was shocked by how many leads I’ve probably missed out on, because I didn’t have a profile. I signed up to LinkedIn and created a profile before I’d even finished the first chapter. Jan Hendrik talks you through every step, so I followed along and watched how he did it. I’ve already had contacts commenting on how I’ve come out of the dark ages.
