"The first month of George mentoring me has given purpose, structure and ambition to my career goals. Very quickly he was able to understand where I wanted to get to and help break these down into achievable objectives, which have been crucial to keeping me on track in the day to day. This was particularly effective as George took the time to understand where I wanted to get to, challenge me on areas that were too vague and give me the confidence I needed to go after my goals. He has provided support at each stage of the process, both tangible feedback on my work and guidance on how to approach a certain challenge.

I have found it incredibly useful having him in my corner and I would highly recommend him as a mentor for anyone looking to evolve their marketing career."

"As a Head of Products in the Insurtech space, I’m now aiming to transition into a MANGA company. To make that leap, I wanted guidance from someone who not only understands Big-Tech hiring, but has lived it first-hand. Nathalie immediately stood out: 12 + years at Google, a professional coaching certification, and experience conducting 100 + interviews herself. That combination of practitioner insight and coaching finesse is rare, and exactly what I was after. From our first session, Nathalie brought structure and intent. Designed a personalised skills-gap assessment based on my target roles. We perform together recurring, hour-long mock interviews (both behavioural and case-based) and followed each one with detailed feedback. She curated a reading list: books, articles, even specific YouTube talks — aligned to my weak spots. Arrived to every meeting with an agenda, sample questions, and scorecards identical to those used at Google. If you’re serious about landing a role at a MANGA company, Nathalie is the mentor you want in your corner. Her blend of insider knowledge, rigorous structure, and genuine care accelerates your preparation and improves your confidence as a product expert."

I started off not knowing anything in the cloud environment and week by week i gradually started building my knowledge off the assignments and knowledge that he has in the cloud to better my skills.

He explained what tools to download as well so we can build off the skills i was learning in our sessions.
