I've found Amrita's career coaching and resume reviews to be exceptionally insightful. Her ability to listen, analyze, and provide actionable advice is remarkable. For example, her detailed breakdown of phone interview strategies allowed me to approach my recruiter call with confidence and clarity. What truly sets Amrita apart is her experience as a data science leader at MAANG and her genuine understanding of the challenges I face as a woman in leadership. She provides honest, relatable advice drawn from her own experiences and those of her network. I'm continuing to work with her through mock interviews and highly recommend her for anyone seeking impactful career guidance or interview preparation.

Amrita is a fantastic coach! She is equally good at providing feedback for both the analytical parts of the interviews (such as product case questions, metrics, data science techniques...) as well as for the behavioral loops of the interview process. I've worked with her a few times now and in every session there is something new or unique that I learn. Her style is also very collaborative! Given her strong professional background she has very high standards and it comes through in the feedback she shares. I highly recommend Amrita for coaching and would hire her again any time!
