Q: How many credits do I need?

Unfortunately, there’s no set answer to that question as every situation is different. We recommend doing one or two sessions with a coach to get started. They’ll be able to give you an assessment of how many sessions you’ll need overall.

Q: Are credits refundable?

Yes, unused credits can be refunded within 30 days of getting purchased. After 30 days the credits cannot be refunded anymore, but you can still use them at any point in the future. If you do get a refund it will be corrected for the discount you initially got. As an example, imagine you have purchased 10 credits, and paid 10 x $48 = $480. If you end up only using 5 credits, we will refund you the difference between what you have paid ($480), and what you would have paid had you purchased 5 credits (5 x $50 = $250). So in this specific example we would refund: $480 - $250 = $230.

Q: How much do credits cost?

Credits cost $50 to $40 per credit. The more you buy, the cheaper they get.

Q: How many credits do coaching sessions cost?

Coaches cost 2, 3, 4 or 5 credits per 1h coaching session.

1. I did take an LP mock interview with Rakesh for L6 SDE role at Amazon. 2. Rakesh had specific feedback for Ownership, Earn trust, Hire and develop the best LP responses I provided. 3. Rakesh's feedback focussed on each story and provided specific feedback for each response with areas of improvement focusing on managing time, limiting data points in the responses. Best practices to showcase impact at L6 Sr. SDE level. 4. Highly recommend Rakesh expertise for LP mock interviews.

Benedict · Software engineer

Interview coaching · Behavioral mock interview

Rakesh gave super constructive feedback that helped me succeed in a technical first round, and made me feel much more confident going into my last-round interviews. He gave clear guidance on what interviewers will look for, in terms of company values' behavioural questions, and helped me refine the weaker parts of my technical and behavioural answers with clear feedback. I appreciated the easily actionable suggestions, as well as a focus on the company I was preparing for.
