Why The FBI Interview Coach Can Help You Pass

Who are the FBI Interview Coaches?

Rod Buchanan and Carole Martin have been called the "gurus", the "Nikes", the "Angels," of the law enforcement interview by their clients who are praising their expertise in coaching.

After coaching thousands of clients through the preparation for the FBI PHASE II INTERVIEW, they know what it takes to get through the interview.

Rod and Carole are SME's - "Subject Matter Experts" on the subject of interviewing.

Their backgrounds are diverse in that they have worked in a variety of environments ranging from Fortune 500 companies to startups, as well as non-profit and academia. They also have coached those in High Tech and Manufacturing, Aerospace and Biotechnology.

In both their careers, they have interviewed thousands of people and watched them make major mistakes - and lose the job to someone else. Although they wanted to help them, they couldn't because they were on the other side of the desk.

They both made a decision to change what they did because they wanted to help people. Their work has been extremely rewarding because of the wonderful emails received telling them both how they made a difference in the life of another person - helping them get the job or career they wanted.

After having an interview coaching business for many years, it became apparent that the niche that they were most passionate about was helping candidates for law enforcement, public safety jobs (1811 jobs).

On a personal note...

I know that it takes a special type of person to seek help from a coach; it can be for a multitude of reasons or circumstances. For some it can be that they have been fired or laid off; for another it might be a life shift and they want a new career.

I have successfully coached people who are seeking an internal promotion or an executive position in every career field.

I work well with those people who are re-entering the work force after retirement or raising a family.

I especially enjoy in working with students and first-time interviewers.

Whatever the reason, I have respect for people who invest in themselves. I take the responsibility of being your coach very seriously. My clients would tell you that I am highly invested in their success.

I never judge you or where you come from. Whatever you tell me "stays with me". I have encountered many of life's "speed bumps" and lived enough life to know that sometimes you have to work hard just to keep on going.
