I did for the last round of interviews I went on. It was extremely helpful and I aced the interview. I'm a big believer in preparing as much as possible and a career coach really provides excellent guidance and feedback. It was worth it for me.

Wondering what people think about my situation. I’ve been offered a role with a company. The job description didn’t mention college degree as a requirement.

It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.
