Do it yourself, or hire a coach?

Doing it yourselfUsually enough whenA coach earns the fee when
Interviews3 to 6 hours of practice out loud per interview process. Callings can prepare you for each job you track.Early rounds in a format you know.Final rounds, panels, a new kind of role, or you tend to freeze.
Job searchA target list, a weekly plan and steady outreach. Callings builds the weekly plan and tracks every application, free.Interviews are coming in.Three months without traction, or a senior search that runs on your network.
Career directionWeeks of reading and conversations about roles that fit. Callings can show your strengths and the pay for each role.You already have two or three target roles.You do not know what comes next, or you want structure and a formal assessment.

Times are our estimates. Try Callings.

Questions to ask before hiring

  1. What are your cancellation and refund terms? (no refund terms on their site)
  2. Who do you usually work with, and how long does a typical engagement last? (always worth asking)
