Interview coaching
Extremely helpful session. I consulted Yahia to get advice on which data science position to pursue (between product data scientist / data scientist / MLE / research scientist). I liked how Yahia asked many questions to understand my background, my strengths and my preferences at work. This helped get more clarity on what I want career-wise, which is exactly what I wanted out of that session. He also gave me information on how to prepare for the interviews.

Career coaching
I really enjoyed our session with Yahia. I reached out when I already had a solid amount of preparation, but was still not succeeding in interviews. Yahia quickly identified a clear set of weaknesses that weren’t obvious to me at all. I got a lot of value from the session and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Yahia was great - he covered both breadth and depth of the subject and gave me very good feedback to improve upon + ideas on what all I could look into.
