Here are some highlights from our discussion:

DeVay wanted to address common questions she’s received as a career coach and a recruiter
It’s easy to take for granted the repeated questions that people ask
She wanted to handle the entire process instead of answer frequently asked questions
With 16 different perspectives, it addresses many ways to approach interview preparedness
Research and overall preparation are often discounted by job seekers, and coaching re-emphasizes being purposeful and intentional
Being honesty and confidence are key in defining your weak spots and making significant progress in landing interviews and performing
At times, career coaches become life coaches needing to unlock life’s obstacles that keep them from having confidence and faith in his or her abilities
Personal events like divorce or having your self-esteem affected can diminish the ability to communicate value
