About this session

Interview preparation is about showing up with clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of how to present your experience. This MentorCruise session is designed to help you prepare for upcoming interviews in a practical, personalized way, whether you are early in your career, making a transition, or aiming for a more competitive role.

You’ll work with an experienced mentor to sharpen your story, improve your answers, and get ready for the questions that matter most. Together, you can practice mock interviews, refine how you talk about your background, prepare for technical or behavioral rounds, and identify the areas that need the most work. The goal is to help you walk into the interview feeling more prepared, more polished, and more confident in your ability to stand out.

Your mentor

I've conducted countless real interviews and mock interviews while building teams at Canva, Grab, and more. I've interviewed everyone from senior designers to interns. I've also helped my network with mock interviews, so I know what interviewers are looking for and how to help you nail your presentation.

I’ve always wanted to improve my presentation and storytelling skills, and Jay’s experience in public speaking and design makes him the perfect mentor. He’s incredibly approachable and fun to talk to, while also being honest with his feedback and clear about next steps, offering practical guidance on how to improve. I left the session feeling clearer, sharper, and more confident in how I present my work. If you’re serious about leveling up your storytelling, Jay’s the person to learn from.”

He consistently challenged and encouraged me, enabling meaningful progress, a reconnection with my inspiration, and the courage to make difficult decisions. I am already seeing the results in my attitude, confidence and behaviour. I now have a clear, actionable plan, directly stemming from his tailored advice. Highly recommend!”

From the start, Jay has been a great mentor, offering thoughtful and current advice grounded in what’s actually happening in the field and region. Even in just our first couple of sessions, we’ve worked through my positioning and career questions in a very practical way and I’ve really appreciated how honest and resourceful his guidance has been. He’s helped me see how much confidence and clarity matter in how I present myself professionally. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly! I’m looking forward to continuing our work together.”

I sent my answers, Jay read them before, and, in our session, we immediately dove into dive deeper conversation about what I need and am looking for. I already knew about Jay through his writing and signed up with him for his holistic approach to career, creative pursuits, and value-based living. Excited to work with him again.”
