How do I prepare for a coaching interview?

Question

Zippia Team · Accepted Answer

Prepare for a coaching interview as if it was a real interview. Practicing interview questions with friends and family is good, but you've always got the comfort of knowing the person conducting the interview.

The main reason to use an interview coach is because it will be more like the real thing. That's why you want to go into it as though it was the actual interview. Dress in your best clothing, groom to impress, bring your resume and supplemental information with you.

Because you'll have worked with your interview coach a bit before the practice interview, it's a good idea to ask them how to prepare. Some may ask you to do specific things like research, do sample questions or tasks, etc. The more informed you are and the more realistic the interview is, the better the experience will be.
