Why Shift

The difference between a successful interview and a bad interview is often just a small SHIFT. A SHIFT in our behavior, tone of voice or answer often unlocks the next opportunity. It's not about pretending to be something you're not, it's about being the best version of yourself. We bring out the best in our clients.
We believe

Not everyone interviews the same way. Giving everyone the same advice doesn't work. We believe that in order to teach people how to interview we must first figure out what's holding you back, help you understand your interview style and give you tools and tips on how to improve.
Who we are

We can help anyone in any industry. All of us have been on both sides of the table and know what it takes to get the job. We have interviewed and we have coached and we have hired. We know interviewing.
Our promise

Everyone improves with coaching, preparation, and practice. You will too, if you have the right guide and right coach to help you on your interviewing journey.
Our methodology

Our methodology rests not on educated guesses, but on informed decisions based on data. We are scientists, researchers, and trainers. We can teach you the science of interviewing.
Our process

Each step of our process revolves around you. We discover your needs, distill your priorities, test your interview style, train you and provide you with data.

Why?
"For years, I worked in recruiting and sat helpless as candidates and hiring managers made simple mistakes. I couldn’t feed them good answers. I couldn’t slip them a list of insightful questions to ask. And I certainly couldn’t give them any negotiating tips. I decided that what I wanted to do was teach people on both sides of the table how to interview."
