Quote: Does it prepare you for the cog and psych test? For me, not really. They give you an idea of what the tests are like, but there is no effective way to prepare for them that will give you a significant advantage
Quote: How to score high points during the interview and tests? That's the whole point of the course. They'll help you structure your responses and teach you key words that get the interviewers' attention. They'll also tell you the pitfalls to avoid... this was the most important lesson I got from it.
Quote: Does it give you a mental picture of what to expect? (I.e. entrance into the building, number of interviewers, receptionist/clerk/janitor watching your every move, etc...) Dude(tte), seriously!? This isn't Black Ops... or Cathay
Quote: Has anyone got PFO'd after using the prep course? Obviously... I know several. $400 isn't going to buy you the job, it's a prep course. Will you be better for it afterwards? Definitely. The work is up to you. Put it to you this way... I haven't met anybody who got the job and was arrogant enough to say afterwards, "I could have gotten the job without the course... what a total waste of time." |
