In her 15+ years as a top career coach, Pam has helped thousands land jobs at Google, Disney, Amazon, Meta, and more. But she saw a big problem: it’s nearly impossible to find everything you need for every stage of the job hunt, and most people don’t have the time or money to hire a private coach.

Big Interview and the amazing team behind it helped me in ways that made the difference in my success of matching into a residency program! Through a combination of interview preparation and career advice, after years of coming close but not matching, I garnered more interviews than I ever have in a season and I matched into my first choice! It takes the work, but the results are worth it!

For those struggling with interviews, Big Interview has some great tips, tools and practice exercises to help improve interviews, build confidence and land that next job. We used Big Interview in our capstone course at Excelsior University and I was very impressed with the effectiveness of this platform!

I had a very enjoyable experience with Big Interview. The wide variety of interview questions and repetition is what helped me nail my interviews. Will definitely be using Big Interview again in the future.

I am sure you get these all the time so I’ll keep this brief! My alma mater gives students and alums access to Big Interview for free. I just happened to think of it years later. I used it religiously last month when applying for a really competitive job and I got it!!! It was the only job I applied for and I didn’t have to schlep through dozens of interviews for multiple jobs. Thank you for the time and care you put into crafting your website. I know it took a ton of effort and hard work, and it works!

I recently signed up to Big Interview and I am so impressed with the quality of the content, the tools and advice, and how truly comprehensive and helpful the information is. I've been on a career break for about 10 years, but I've tried to stay current with job search strategies over that time, and Big Interview is hands down the best I've found. So much of the confidence I have today is thanks to the Answer Builder and the Practice interviews I've been doing, so THANK YOU!! As a career returner, I can't tell you how priceless that is. Keep up the amazing work!

I have actually secured an internship placement at UBS using the techniques that biginterview.com has taught me. It's not what you could have done, but more like what you HAVE already done – sending me to a prestigious institution. Thanks so much for your comprehensive curriculum and I surely have learned a lot from it!

Frequently Asked Questions
about Big Interview

How do I know it will work for me?

We know Big Interview works because we’ve tested and refined our platform with hundreds of thousands of job seekers before you. And our statistics clearly show that Big Interview is effective. Our users get a job after 4.5 weeks on average. That’s almost 5x faster than the current US average of 22.6 weeks. How have we achieved this? In short — all thanks to the expertise of our co-founder and chief coach, Pamela Skillings.

In addition to developing Big Interview, Pamela Skillings spent 12 years in executive-level marketing and human resources jobs for Fortune 500 companies (including Morgan Stanley, MasterCard International, and Citigroup). Pamela also still works with corporate and government clients to develop training, retention, communications, and recruiting programs. Clients include Citigroup, American Express, Ernst & Young, and the City of New York. Pamela’s work with corporations keeps her up to date on hiring trends and the employer perspective, which helps inform her coaching work with job seekers.

I don’t think I have enough time. How long does it take?

If you have 2 hours to spare, Big Interview will give you enough value to make you feel prepared for the upcoming interview. We have a special “Fast-Track” module designed specifically for people who need to prepare NOW. If you’re pressed for time, use the “Interview Practice” tool — you’ll get immediate feedback on your interview answers and plenty of insights along the way. Plus, great sample answers to common questions you can get inspired by.

Why do I need to prepare for my interview? Can’t I just be myself?

Sadly, it doesn’t work like that. Almost 50% of candidates fail the interview because they didn’t know how to properly research the company. Two out of three candidates struggle to make eye contact with the interviewer. 39% of candidates get rejected because of poor body language. We could go on and on with the stats. Truth is — interviewing for jobs is uncomfortable and difficult, solely because no one ever taught you how to do it. With Big Interview, you gain invaluable knowledge almost no other candidate has. With preparation, you’ll get an edge over 9 out of 10 other applicants who believe they simply “got this.”

How long will I need to use Big Interview for to see results?

You’ll get a huge boost to your interviewing skills within hours. But, obviously, the more work you put in, the better results you can expect. Big Interview is not just about interviewing. Inside our app, you’ll find lessons on salary negotiation, a resume writing course, a professional resume builder that helps you highlight your assets, and tips on how to find better jobs. And it doesn’t end when you do land that job. Our platform teaches you how to make the most of your career, get an internal promotion, go for that first managerial job, or even switch industries later in your career. That’s why one of our plans is lifetime access. Big Interview can become your ultimate career toolbox and help you navigate through all the challenges your professional life may throw at you.

How much does it cost? Can I afford it?

One-month access to Big Interview costs $39. A three-month plan is $99. Lifetime access — $299. And again, to put that into perspective — Big Interview typically helps you shave around 4 months off of your job search. That’s 4 fewer months of not getting your salary, and 4 fewer months of constant stress and anxiety. And if you’re still not sure if Big Interview is worth your investment, just give it a try. If you don’t think it’s worth what you’re paying, we’re offering you a 30-day money-back guarantee. No questions asked.
