This is think180, coaching for interviews for native English speakers and non-native speakers.
Interviews come in many different styles (competence, stress, structured, semi-structured) and we need to understand each style and how best to prepare in order to give ourselves the best opportunity of being offered the job. At think180 we have a different take on the STAR method where we develop your story to ensure that you present the best you and give yourself the best chance of landing your dream job. Afterall, who needs coaching?

think180 is Simon Carter Ba(hons) Business Management. I arrived here after a varied and interesting journey through 20 years of the ventilation industry, 13 years in the education/mentoring sector, 8 years working with IELTS examinations and 11 years living in Spain. I have a CELTA teaching certificate.
During my time in the education sector I mainly taught English but branched out into the world of presentation coaching. My return to UK put me in a position of requiring a job and starting on the interview merry-go-round. The more interviews I experienced, I started to see a pattern of questions that were being asked. From this point I was able to prepare responses and build a complete story. I started to see a change in success rates.
Fast forward to now and I have moved back into the world of education and have begun travelling more. Back in the teaching world I have had the pleasure of knowing and teaching some very interesting people and people who are actively looking for new jobs. The summer of 2024 saw an increase in demand for focused interview coaching courses and resulted in success with a number of clients being offered the jobs that they wanted.
On the back of this demand, I decided to design a more structured course. The basis of the course is very simple, I work with you to ensure that the responses that you have are the most suitable for the job that is being applied for. We will work to minimise your weaknesses and get you in a position where you don't just enjoy the interview but you can start to determine the direction the interview takes so you can be sure that the interviewer sees the best possible you. This is not something you can do alone, it's much better having someone objective to get that 180º view, to build that story, to find the real you.
