"Even though over the years I interviewed for many positions and was a hiring manager at two Fortune 100 companies, I never realized how unprepared I was for job interviews until I started working with Interview Angel. With Interview Angel, you have an organized approach to job interviews, including interview preparation about the company, the position, and the interviewers. Brent also includes the questions you should ask interviewers.

One of the most important facets of Brent’s Angel is his selection of topics/questions for which you prepare "Stories to Share" following the SOAR approach (Situation, Objective, Action, Result). In one interview, the interviewer asked 10 of the 12 questions, in nearly the same sequence, as the "Stories to Share" found in Interview Angel. Having completed these "stories" following the SOAR approach and practicing, the interviewer was impressed with both my answers to "his questions" and the ease of following my answers.

I was interviewed for four positions after completing the Interview Angel; each of these resulted in a job offer. I recommend that if possible you meet Brent and suggest those in career transition attend career sessions at which he speaks and to, not only investigate the Interview Angel system, but to add it to your toolkit while searching for a career."

"Brent has created an invaluable resource with Interview Angel. When I received my copy, I couldn't put it down. I felt enlightened, inspired and empowered after reading it. This is more than a fabulous product; it's a treasure. For the past few years, I've become a job search advice junkie -- I subscribe to a ton of blogs, follow all kinds of experts on Twitter, have read quite a few interview self-help books, etc. NOTHING can compare to Interview Angel. It is the indispensable, must-have resource that job seekers NEED so desperately right now. Brent has skillfully combined everything job seekers need in order to prepare for a successful job interview in one, useful, portable package. The preparation worksheets follow a logical, sequential order for completion. Brent’s checklists are easy-to-follow and assure that no detail is forgotten in the job interview process. The information is presented in a conversational, easy-to-follow tone. It's perfect."

"When looking for a job, there are three basics you need to have in your job search toolbox…A) Resume B) Cover Letter and C) Interview Angel. While we all know that a resume and cover letter will get your foot in the door, a great interview will seal the deal on landing a new job. Since I have began using Interview Angel, I feel more confident and prepared for interviews with hiring managers and recruiters. In fact, one recruiter who interviewed me was so shocked by the way and manner I handled myself during an interview. She afterwards stated that she never had a candidate who interviewed so well."

"Loved the Interview Angel. Got the job! Interview Angel is thorough, clear, concise and it works! Thanks Brent, you are definitely an inspiration."

"The MBA Program at the Robins School of Business has discovered that Interview Angel provides our students an affordable, user-friendly product that gives them step-by-step instructions to help them in their job search. It's innovative and a low-cost career supplement that we feel can have a real impact on our students' careers."

“Prior to meeting Brent I purchased the Interview Angel portfolio which has been a valuable tool during my job search. It offers a systematic and disciplined approach to preparing for interviews. After visiting the interview angel website I saw Brent’s profile on linked in and decided to invite him for coffee. He replied immediately and we set a time to meet. I shared my job search strategies with him and not only did he give me some feedback but also shared some contacts with me which have been helpful during this time of transition. Since then I have kept in touch with Brent who is always encouraging, positive and has a genuine interest in helping others. Brent is a person who truly embodies “paying it forward.”

“Brent is a "go-getter" and has created a wonderful product for job seekers. Brent is an idea man but also a doer. I have enjoyed working with him and can recommend him as someone dedicated and creative.”

“Patience, humor and tenacity are not often used in the same sentence - but they describe Brent Peterson. His product, Interview Angel, a job interview preparation tool, gives discipline and structure to the job search and turn interviews into opportunities. He leads with the inspiration of a Super Bowl quarterback, and shares success with his team. I was pleased to work with him and for him, and would do it again.”

“Brent shared his expertise about interviewing with fellow U. Va. alumni in an excellent and informative webinar on March 3. His willingness to help others in the difficult job-search process is admirable and the U. Va. Alumni Association is most grateful.”

“During my job transition I have had the pleasure of hearing Brent Peterson speak at a few networking events. After each event I left with a sense of optimism and a renewed energy for my job search. Brent not only speaks of best practices but adds in practical, tactical advice that can be applied immediately to your job search. I highly recommend attending any event where you can hear Brent speak.”

“Brent did an outstanding job presenting the concepts and usage of his Interview Angel padfolio. We, leaders of Job Club groups at the Employment Transition Center, will be bringing these job search preparation techniques back to our members to assist them in succeeding during this trying process.”

“Brent Peterson's proprietary Interview Angel Padfolio is an excellent resource that provides a wealth of information relating to interview preparation. I highly recommend the Interview Angel Padfolio.”

“Brent Peterson is an inspiring thought leader, an ambitious entrepreneur and a supportive partner and friend. I have had the true honor and pleasure of knowing him and working with him in the partnership of our career services, Interview Angel and Career Rocketeer. Not only has he managed to launch and grow his own business venture, but he has also generously given his time and effort to support and grow both my and others' ventures. I only wish I had the opportunity to work with him on a daily basis as I enjoy his company, am inspired by his ideas and efforts and believe that any endeavor in which he is involved will inevitably be a success. The only way I can think of ending a recommendation for Brent is to thank him for all that he is and does and to look forward to continued collaboration and opportunities together.”

“The Interview Angel program is by far the most comprehensive interview preparation tool that I have encountered and I am looking forward to incorporating Brent's methods into our job club program. The step-by-step worksheets are an excellent way to bring organization and focus to the interview process. I cannot recommend Brent, and his system, highly enough and I am confident that this unique product, once completed, will greatly enhance interview performance for job candidates at any level of career development.”

“I first met Brent following one of his Interview Angel presentations at a Virginia Career Network meeting a few months ago. I heard him share his interview preparation tips again at the Pathways to Success seminar in late October. Brent is an outstanding person, totally professional, and a definite asset to all job seekers and those in career transition in the Richmond, VA area and beyond. I had the honor to work with Brent on the Get Hired Virginia Speed Networking event on 10/27/09. Brent asked me to use my social media strategy skills to promote the event across the major social media platforms, which included LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, blogging, and mass emails. The event raised over $1000 for charity and helped hundreds of professionals establish valuable business connections. I was proud to be a key member of his team and help with the marketing effort for the event. Brent is a proven team leader who gives back to the community in many ways. I highly recommend his services to any organization.

“I am pleased to take the opportunity to recommend Brent Peterson. Brent is a passionate, hard working, creative and talented professional who strives to help others in life! I collaborated with Brent on the Get Hired! Virginia Event held in Richmond on 10/27/09. Brent partnered with Mike Ogilvie of Ignite SpeedNetworking to provide a wonderful opportunity for Richmond area job seekers. This event was extremely successful and pulled together hundreds of people to include: career coaches/counselors, human resources/recruiters, community job seekers and JMU alumni. The success of this event is attributed to the hard work and organizational skills of both Brent and Mike! Brent is a smart, compassionate and articulate individual. Brent earned the honor of being the outstanding MBA student from James Madison University in 1999 and he hasn't stopped yet! He is the founder of Interview Angel, a career product aimed to assist individuals in interview preparation. As a Professional Career Counselor, I highly recommend Brent Peterson. He is a pleasure to work with and a very special individual!”

“I had the distinct privilege of working with Brent, who led the Get Hired Virginia Speed Networking event on 10/27/2009. The event, the first of many planned nationwide, raised over $1000 for charity and helped hundreds of professionals establish valuable business connections. Brent is a creative, energetic and personable businessman, as well as an excellent project manager and motivating team leader. He has concentrated his many talents into developing the "Interview Angel" complete job interview preparation tookit, which readies a candidate for any scenario when interviewing in today's highly competitive job market. Knowing that one is well-prepared engenders that edge that everyone wants--the confidence that a hiring manager is seeking in a new hire.”

“Get Hired! Virginia was super! I've heard from two recruiters the next morning!!! I also had the opportunity to help several others in their efforts. I truly believe that was the most effective 3 hours I've spent in my job search! You did a wonderful job organizing the event and I believe that your business will soar as a result of your efforts! THANK YOU! Donna” October 29, 2009

“Brent is a great resource. I recently attended the Speed Networking event at Meadow Farm - WOW - what a great experience to meet new contacts and expand my network. I look forward to the next one. Thank you Brent!”

“I recently attended Brent's "Interview Preparation" talk and found it both informative and engaging. Brent did an outstanding job of keeping the audience involved during the presentation and made all of his points memorable and relevant through his storytelling. I have had the pleasure of working indirectly with Brent at a previous company as well as getting to know him on a personal level, and I would highly recommend him as someone with very strong integrity and a sincere desire to help others.” August 12, 2009

“Brent gave an excellent presentation on interviewing. The room was filled to capacity and after listening to his presentation and life experiences, it was obvious Brent has a true passion to help those of us in transition. I have attended numerous networking/career seminars over the past 6 months and this truly was one of the most inspiring and practical ones that I’ve attended……THANKS Brent”

“I recently had the pleasure of attending Brent Peterson’s “Interview Preparation – The Secrets to Getting Hired!” seminar. Brent did a phenomenal job of presenting, in a fun and relaxed manner, the 4 keys to effectively answer the age old “tell me about yourself” interview question, what you need to do to get the interview, and once you’re in the interview how to inspire the hiring manager to view you as the number one choice of hire. I would highly recommend that if you have the opportunity to connect with Brent to get your job search on track, DO IT!!”

“I had the pleasure of attending Brent Peterson's presentation last night. He did a super job presenting highly relevant information on interview preparation, execution, networking, and more. I appreciate his insights very much. Brent has an excellent way of connecting with his audience. He comes across relaxed, confident, and is clearly an expert on the subject matter. An excellent storyteller, Brent blended fantastic examples to support his strategies. It is obvious that Brent is passionate about helping people, and he has chosen the perfect field to do so. For anyone looking to improve their interviewing skills, job search strategies, and overall communication skills, I would highly recommend they reach out to Brent and Interview Angel.”

“I had the privilege of being introduced to Brent while pursuing my next career opportunity. In one of Brent’s workshops he stated, “It’s your interview to lose”. Those words had a significant impact on me. In my past, I have used interview preparation books that provide you with 200 questions to anticipate in an interview. Brent’s Interview Angel organizes these numerous questions into 12 concise stories that can be used in multiple scenarios. The preparation worksheets are the essential tool in documenting your career achievements with the end result being a strong sense of accomplishment. I especially valued the company research worksheets. Thank you for bringing this product to market. It certainly worked for me!”

“Brent's product is highly innovative and a great tool especially in this tough economy. Not only did it help me organize my thoughts and who I was, but helped me portray myself in the best light and ace my interviews. The ability to have the Interview Angel toolkit in my hands as I was going through the interview process was hugely beneficial and certainly calmed me down because it was basically my cheat sheet. I had all my stories lined up, I had myself organized and it kept me cool and collected.”

"Interview Angel is an excellent and ingenious tool! Simple, well organized and covers all the bases. The padfolio gives structure to an often chaotic process, and clarity to an unwieldy amount of information."

"For the first time ever we're offering the Robins Summer Business Institute at the University of Richmond. Our goal is to give each non-business major both knowledge and practical skill development tools. The Interview Angel padfolios are the best going away gifts that I can present to complete the goals of setting these job applicants apart from all others."

"Interview Angel is the most thorough interview preparation guide I have ever seen! It essentially sets candidates apart from their competition. Interview Angel prepares the applicant to make a great, lasting impression with an employer. I highly recommend it to anyone serious about getting hired."

"Interview Angel provides the essential tools to assist anyone to better prepare for interviews and to get hired. Brent Peterson has done a wonderful job unlocking the secrets to interview preparation and execution in simple easy to follow steps."

Interview Angel takes you through a progression of easily understood steps that ultimately prepare you for any interview scenario. Using Interview Angel works."

"If a candidate walked into my company with Interview Angel in hand, I would already be inclined to hire him because nobody has ever been this organized. As a business owner, I also recognize how valuable Interview Angel would be for employees unfortunately impacted by business downsizing."

"I wished I had had this amazing tool years ago when preparing for and implementing a serious job search. Instead, I paid a job placement service $4,000 to do exactly what Interview Angel does. From the resume sample and preparation worksheets to the simple interview checklists, this detailed guide will put you into the position you've always wanted."

"I was very pleased with the immediate email order confirmation and shipping status notification. My copy of Interview Angel arrived in the mail in a very timely manner. I was impressed that the product can take you seamlessly from resume composition to interview preparation. I highly recommend Interview Angel to any professionals who aspire to rise above the crowd in their employment search!"

"I ordered the Interview Angel toolkit based on the excellent presentation Brent gave at a job seminar. His tips for focusing on solving a company's problems, and using the SOAR method to tell stories were extremely helpful. While he's obviously a very creative man, with great integrity, I just have to choose "personable" as one of his top three attributes - his own stories are heart-warming and inspiring. Best wishes to Brent in this great venture, and to everyone who looks to forward their careers through using his product."

"Brent's exceptional experience, communication expertise and focused skills in hiring processes, combined with contagious enthusiasm, literally transformed me as a believer the effectiveness of his Interview Angel product. I have known a number of coaches over the years, though none were focused exclusively on the interview. Brent is unquestionably very effective. If you have an upcoming interview, you won't regret hearing what Brent has to say or taking a look at Interview Angel."

"Brent is a creative, energetic and personable businessman who has concentrated his many talents into developing the Interview Angel.

Not only do I consider Brent to be a great businessman, I consider Brent to be a great person! I highly recommend Brent, and am lucky to have the opportunity to partner with his organization!"

"When I think about people who are passionate about helping others and doing the "right thing" I think about Brent. Brent is a leader, Entrepreneur and has a product (Interview Angel) that lets him pay it forward. If you are interviewing or thinking about your next career move make sure that Interview Angel is part of your success!"

"Brent is on a crusade to assist under-employed and unemployed candidates interview their way into great positions and I could not think of a better champion for the cause! I've had the pleasure of working with Brent over the last couple of months, as both a service provider and business partner, and it has been a ultra-satisfying experience. He's given countless hours to making sure that candidates are armed with the proper tools and resources for a job search. He is an inspiration to the Richmond, VA community and beyond and I happily recommend him and Interview Angel!"

"Brent Peterson has done a masterful job in putting together a complete "interview in a portfolio" with his Interview Angel tool. Everything you need, including how-to tips, is in this elegant and professional package. I would not consider doing another interview without this tool at my side and you shouldn't either. It has the potential to help you break through to the top layer and win that job!"

"Interview Angel is very thorough. I've used material that an outplacement firm has and what Brent Peterson has put together is just as valuable, if not more so, and at a fraction of the cost. Other outplacement material surely isn't as user friendly in different areas. He has taken all the mystery out of the whole scary interview process."

"Having worked for the same company for 13 years, I was panicked when I suddenly lost my job and clueless about how to get prepared to find a new one. I didn't know where to begin. Then I was introduced to Interview Angel, and I found clarity. It provided me with the tools I needed to walk with complete confidence into my first interview. The Interview Angel "Padfolio" is a treasure. I am so grateful to Brent Peterson for developing a smart and impactful product that's made my job search more manageable."
