  • I just wanted to thank you for your help with my interviews. I had one session with you last summer and learned so much and you really gave me the insight to be successful. I’ve recently been hired by Mississauga fire and emergency services. MFES, if you remember is where I’m from and my dream department to be employed by. I owe so much to you and your services and could not have accomplished my dream without your help. I’ve recommended a lot of my friends to your services and I hope for all the best in the future.

  • Hello Shawn, I’m just emailing you to thank you for all the help you provided me when we had our mock interview in October (2013). On wednesday I received my conditional offer with the city of Hamilton. The Mock interview and the information from your website allowed me to be very prepared for my second interview. All the hard work I have done leading to this point has finally paid off and I really appreciate everything you have done for me. I was going to give you a call but I know how busy your schedule is so i decided to email you. I have recommended you to everyone i know that share the same goal as me, it really made a difference and I cannot thank you enough.

  • Hi Shawn I sought you out to help prepare for an interview. I just wanted to let you know that I was chosen as one of 17 new recruits with Vaughan Fire & Rescue Service! Today marked the beginning of my 5th week of training.  I am so grateful for your advice and help. While I originally contacted you regarding an interview for the Kitchener FD, your advice and tips were spot on, and after I had a few interviews under my belt over the summer, it all paid off with Vaughan.

  • Hi Shawn, The interview with Pickering went well.  Unfortunately I wasn’t one of the two they hired to start in October.  I did make it on their hiring list though.  So I have a good chance at being hired next year.  I will still be applying to other depts in the meantime.  Your mock interview was a huge help and I will definitely come back for another one when I get another interview.

  • Hi Shawn, I had a mock interview with you in July. I just wanted to say thanks for all the help. I will be starting the recruitment class at the end of September. Without your help and your book, it would have been difficult to be properly prepared. I only wish I had got your help for the first interview. Thanks again!
