I used to be Head of Careers, Tech & Global Industries at Oxford Said Business School, and before that I ran MBA recruitment for Amazon across Europe. Combining a 25+ year career with multiple distinct pivots, I can offer a unique perspective for students from all walks of life.
See below for examples of support.
One-on-one sessions – on-demand prep for students who get interviews, real-time. I can work at very short notice to schedule and deliver 1hr mock interviews, including providing feedback.
Group interview workshops – behavioural interview practice, setting up peer-to-peer support. More efficient than 1-1 support, a key benefit is teaching self-sufficiency, reducing time strain on Career Services.
As a former recruiter and hiring manager, and having worked with 1k+ students from hugely diverse backgrounds, I'm well-placed to help students represent themselves effectively in CVs and online.
I help students navigate their career journey, making tangible next steps using The 2-Hour Job Search, a methodology (and book) from Steve Dalton.
I am a career coach and interview specialist. Most recently, I ran Early Careers Recruitment at Sky. Prior to this, I spent 5 years as Head of Careers, Global Industries at Oxford's Said Business School, and prior to that was at Amazon for 11 years, running MBA campus recruitment across Europe as well as leading large digital marketing teams.
I have interviewed over 1k candidates over my 25+year career. I have been a hiring manager, a recruiter, and trained thousands of staff & students on how to interview effectively. I have been trained as a facilitator and have delivered hundreds of workshops.
I am used to working with diverse students across all programmes including Masters, MBAs and EMBAs. My insights have been featured on: The Career Farm; QS/TopMBA.com; Business Insider; BusinessBecause; Exactimo.
