Course overview
You're a skilled tech professional who KNOWS you have what it takes to work at big tech companies.
But you haven't cracked those interviews yet.
You're impacted by:
→ Interview anxiety
→ Stories without structure
→ Lack of structured preparation
→ Not knowing insider expectations
→ Blanking during behavioural questions
IS THIS YOU?
→ You KNOW you have the technical skills to succeed at big tech companies, you've seen peers land these roles, you just don't know how to present yourself effectively.
→ You feel overwhelmed by the interview process. You're practicing - but something's missing!
→ You're already preparing for interviews, you just don't know if you're focusing on the right things.
HAVE YOU EVER?
→ Let interview anxiety hold you back from pursuing roles you know you'd excel in?
→ Watched your colleagues land prestigious FAANG+ roles, wondering how they cleared the interview process?
→ Seen less experienced professionals get hired at higher levels just because they interviewed better?
TIME TO CHANGE THAT!
In this course you'll learn:
- How to deliver high-impact responses in STAR format
- How to craft compelling technical achievement stories
- How to effectively communicate leadership experiences
- How to blend technical depth with strong behavioral skills
- How to mentally prepare for four to eight rounds of interviews
- How to maintain authenticity while following structured frameworks
- How to project confidence through voice, body language, and pacing
- How to share lessons learned from past failure and conflict experiences
- How to craft and deliver senior level responses to get hired at the right level
With the right strategy and preparation, you can showcase your expertise, demonstrate your leadership potential, and establish yourself as the perfect candidate for the role.
You may be thinking:
What stories should I prepare?
How do I connect with the interviewer?
How do I handle challenging scenarios?
How do I structure my responses effectively?
How do I demonstrate leadership potential?
How do I showcase behavioral skills in technical interviews?
In 2019, I was exactly where you are now – anxious, uncertain, and unsure if I will be able to crack the Big Tech interview.
What started as a personal challenge quickly transformed into a mission to understand and excel at the art of interviewing.
Why Listen to Me? Here's My Proven Track Record:
- Insider Perspective: Conducted hundreds of interviews at AWS, gaining deep insights from both candidate and interviewer sides
- Mentorship Impact: Helped hundreds of professionals successfully navigate Big Tech interviews
- Community Builder: Founded BeSA (Become a Solutions Architect), a free mentoring initiative that has upskilled thousands of cloud professionals
- Recognized Thought Leader: Author of 'Cloud Career Journeys', Creator of 'Behavioral OS for Techies' weekly newsletter
In this workshop, I'll share my systematic approach to crafting compelling stories, delivering high-impact responses, and consistently impressing hiring managers across multiple rounds of interviews.
This knowledge comes from both my personal journey at AWS and helping hundreds of candidates succeed in big tech interviews.
