"Although I did not secure the position, I wanted to share the immense value I gained from my sessions with Go Further Goals and how it positively impacted my overall interview experience. 

The founder, Melanie, provided tailored advice on crafting compelling answers to common interview questions and improving my presentation skills. I felt well-prepared and very calm and confident to tackle the interview. The investment I made in Melanie’s consulting service was undoubtedly worthwhile. Her professionalism, dedication, and personalised approach made a significant impact on my development as a candidate.

I strongly recommend Go Further Goals."

"My business suffered as a result of the pandemic and I lost all direction as to how to start again.  I lacked confidence but Melanie put me back on the right path and built up my confidence again. She gave me the tools I needed  to get my foot in the door of the job I wanted.  Would highly recommend her! "

"I was lucky enough to work with Melanie after being redundant for the second time in 12 months. I was feeling bitter and disillusioned about my most recent work experience, and my confidence level was at an all-time low. The thought of having to update my CV again felt like an unassailable task, I had no enthusiasm to tackle it once again. 

However, with Melanie’s help, I was able to step back and view my CV and experience as a third party, and in a much more positive light. With some discerning questions and turns of phrase I couldn’t have created, I not only had a document I was more confident in sending out into the world, but a renewed belief in myself. While I still haven’t found a permanent role (I’m in a contract role I may not have considered otherwise), with Melanie’s help, I’m better equipped to know what I do and don’t want, and feel empowered to say ‘no’ rather than panicking. I highly recommend working with Melanie. "

"Melanie, thank you. Your work with me has been instrumental in my success in identifying and securing my new job. Your experience and currency in today's employment arena was clearly evident from the start.

However, of equal importance was your ability to help identify, evidence and translate skills developed in an established career into new and exciting opportunities. We often feel we should know things and lack the courage to seek help. Your calm, considered but motivating approach helped dissolve those feelings. So thank you and carry on the great service."

"After applying for MPharm to study pharmacy, I was anxious in how I was going to manage an interview. The format was sent to me, including many different stations and scenarios, and a group task. I certainly didn’t feel comfortable even thinking about it, and being a very quiet person, it was way out of my comfort zone.

Thankfully, we managed to find Melanie when we did, and she put in so much work and preparation to get me the best possible outcome.The interview wasn’t half as bad as I thought, as she prepared me so well in advance. 

She always made me feel relaxed, as she’s so professional but has a lovely manner, I took her advice easily on board, hard as it is to express myself, I felt comfortable with her, and she helped me believe in myself and that I could accomplish my dreams.

​

I can’t thank her enough, and would recommend her to anyone, especially if you are quiet and find talking in public, or amongst strangers not something that comes easy to you.”

Our Teams sessions were tailored to my specific requirements and I gained confidence in articulating my work experience and skills. On the interview day, I felt confident and extremely well prepared.

"English isn't my first language so I was worried about my interview for a multicultural company in London. I really wanted to get this job but had only few days before the interview. I prepared an interview by myself and then had a mock interview with Melanie. The price was reasonable. She was professional and knew what she was doing. She gave advice on my prepared answers and it totally sounded better with it. She also boosted my confidence and it helped me a lot to be confident in the real interview. I used the improved answers and some of questions were exactly the same. I got the job and now I am working for the best company in my life!"

"It was a great pleasure to work with Melanie. I was looking for career development opportunities

however, my interviews were not going well. I was receiving plenty of rejections and I started to lose my confidence. At this point I contacted Melanie.

She was very supportive, flexible and helpful during this period. To achieve my goal we worked on my CV and interview questions. Following tailored mock interviews she gave feedback about my interview performance. Outside of the coaching sessions she also answered my questions regarding interview preparation. Melanie made me feel more confident about my skills and helped me to realise how strong a background I do have.

As a result of our coaching sessions I received 3 job offers! I have accepted the one which fits me best for my career growth. I highly recommend Melanie. She has great knowledge and she really understands your needs. If I need to I will be back for her coaching service again. Thank you Melanie I couldn't have achieved my goal without your help."

"I had been looking for a job for a very long time. I had more than 15 interviews and didn't succeed in any of them. The multiple rejections had a negative impact on my performance at interviews and my overall wellbeing. Thanks to Melanie I built up my confidence to sell myself in my job interview. She carefully read my CV, helped me to highlight my strengths and key skills and articulate them to convey a meaningful message to the interviewers. Through her detailed and personalised tips to self reflect and mock interview practice I have improved my verbal and non verbal communication skills. Her support was extremely useful to set up clear goals and take a positive approach in these difficult times.

Melanie was flexible to accommodate the sessions at a suitable time, including evenings and weekends. Always approachable and efficient answering all my email queries swiftly.

Her guidance helped me rebuild my confidence, which was reflected in my job interview. Thanks to Melanie I finally got the job, with a promotion and a permanent contract! I couldn't be more grateful. Her support also enabled me to transfer my skills to multiple settings, and I have received feedback from people who commented on how confident I sound when talking in public now."

"My experience with Melanie exceeded my expectations. I had spoken to many different interview coaches, however, I am so glad I selected Melanie. The free 30 min consultation gave me an insight into Melanie's experience and I could see that she knew exactly what I was looking for. She was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable. Excellent at setting up presentations and giving back constructive feedback to get you ready for your interview. Melanie also does a lot of work outside of the coaching session answering queries in regard to interview preparation which I found saved me time and helped me prepare much better. I would recommend you try Melanie before considering anyone else. The service is great value for money!!!"

“I worked with Melanie to enhance my CV and strengthen my job applications in a very tough market. She was great as a fresh pair of eyes and has invaluable knowledge of the recruitment process, really understanding what recruiters are looking for. With her help, I now feel far more confident in my abilities and understand the recruitment process better. I am a recent graduate and have had limited experience of job hunting and Melanie’s style and guidance made me feel at ease, and will significantly improve my chances of securing a great job. Melanie is very attentive and professional and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to anyone looking to develop their career or change their path."

Career Development

“I am a recent graduate and I had an upcoming interview for an amazing job opportunity, however, I have very limited experience with job interviews and I was extremely nervous. Melanie really took the time to work with me on my technique and build my confidence. She even rescheduled a session to a Sunday to ensure I'd be prepared for my interview the following day. We went through practise questions followed by personalised feedback and advice on how to answer. I was then able to use this advice in a final practice interview which left me feeling confident and prepared for the real thing. The real interview went far better than I could have hoped and I got the job!! This would not have been possible without Melanie's expertise and I am forever grateful. Thank you Melanie!"

With Melanie's guidance, she made it clear what needed changing to cater specifically for roles that I would be applying for. It was clear that she dedicated a lot of her time to researching my background and previous employment to highlight areas which would attract the attention of hiring managers and recruiters. In doing so she has instilled much more confidence when I am applying to various roles and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs advice when looking for new job opportunities."

"Despite receiving positive feedback, I had failed to secure a job after several interviews. I was clearly missing a trick, so called upon Melanie for help. Melanie put a huge amount of effort into researching the employer and reviewing my application and gave me very personalised guidance. My two mock interviews with her really boosted my confidence and thoroughly prepared me for a wide range of questions. Melanie’s feedback gave me an invaluable insight into how I was projecting myself, this really enabled me to make some adjustments and improve.  I would encourage anyone searching for a job to turn to Melanie - she is always prepared to go the extra mile."

Career Development

"The help I gained from Melanie was invaluable. She is such a calm and friendly person, which in turn made me feel confident and relaxed in her presence. Her knowledge was crucial in helping update my CV, and critiquing my Cover Letter. I was proud to hand them in with my application once finished, and I have taken away a better understanding of how to structure both. I felt very confident walking in to my interview, and this was largely due to the mock interview Melanie ran through with me the day before.
I would highly recommend Go Further Goals, it was a great learning curve for me and I have gained so much! I have no hesitation in recommending Melanie to any business with Training or Human Resource needs."
