**Pass Your Interviews**
Astika brings invaluable FAANG hiring expertise, having interviewed and hired Product Managers at Meta, where she was trained on Meta's rigorous evaluation rubric.

She believes that once trained from Meta's bar perspective, candidates are also primed to excel at other top tech companies, meeting or exceeding their standards. Astika's unique methodology combines practical preparation with mindset and confidence coaching, empowering candidates to overcome nerves and limiting beliefs. This approach ensures they are interview-ready, equipped to showcase their best in high-stakes scenarios, and fully prepared to stand out in a competitive landscape.

LiyaOct 19, 2024 - Interview coaching
Astika was great to work with! She helped me mocked for analytical thinking questions for Meta. She recognizes that there are different ways to go about answering these questions based on her solid experiences and she was able to help me understand what's truly important to showcase in interviews. She was able to identify gaps in my mock and provide specific feedback. She was able to help me brainstorm answers on tough questions too, which is great! Highly recommend working with her.
