Hello! I’m Dawn!
Career & Interview Coach & Trainer
“I’m the Founder of Your Interview Coach set up in 2013 when my idea to help both candidates and hiring managers through the complexities of the recruitment and selection process became a passion and a burning desire!”
My Approach
Every client is different and they come from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds. They also have a broad range of previous experience of interviewing.
For that reason there is no ‘off the shelf’ packages here:
- Free Consultation to establish your requirements
- Every coaching session is tailored and bespoke
We need to know your previous experience (or lack of experience) and we need to understand your aspirations, goals, and career objectives before we book any coaching session.

Professional and approachable
-
Highly driven to helping you reach your full potential
- Committed to Empowering you by sharing knowledge, insights, tools, and techniques
My Interviewing Experience

Prior to being an in-house Recruiter I had hiring experience as a team leader in the NHS and then as a Manager in the Private Healthcare Sector. I was responsible for the recruitment for the South-East of England and this gave me valuable experience to move into HR.
