What our students say
Unemployed 2 months → Analyst → Consultant
Fidel was incredibly influential during the interview process for my current company. He guided me from networking with the right people to preparing for interviews and individual case studies. He is a huge reason why I was able to present the best version of myself.
Love the specific industry advice
I’ve tried free mentoring programs before, but mentors were rarely committed or tailored in their advice. Koko was the opposite, every piece of advice was specific to my situation and actually actionable.
Got the role because mentor sat the same interview
Having a mentor that just did the same interview 2 years ago in the same company is the reason why I got this role.
Mass Applications no results → first final interview
I like the flexible lessons, compared to other career programs that are way more expensive. I have gotten my first ever in person final interview!
Passed the case study with mentor’s PowerPoint template
The reason I passed the individual case study for my current role is because he gave me a PowerPoint template that’s professional and impressed the interviewers.
Being “unique” was the reason I got hired
I thought ‘being unique to stand out’ was a buzzword until I realised it was the main reason I got my current role.
Paired with a mentor inside my target firm
My mentor worked in my target firm, so I think it will be helpful in the interview process for me.
No internships? My mentor showed it’s possible
I have no formal internship experience and was feeling quite behind. I got paired with a mentor who landed a full time job with no internships either, I feel more calm about my situation.
Faster than Googling visa, tax and job sites
I book sessions ad hoc when I want to ask someone who has done it. Its faster than researching on my own. Life admin no one talks about: visa, tax, investing, which job sites actually reply.
One 40-min session gave me a clear direction
I heard about Headstart through a USYD society event and decided to give it a go. After one 40-minute session, I had a much clearer picture of where I should be heading.
Stopped mass applying, passed my first recorded interview
I kept seeing Headstart on Instagram and decided to check it out. Before this, I was mass applying with no idea what I was doing wrong. After 3 sessions, I finally passed my first online recorded interview.
