About Nancy

After 30 Years operating one of New York’s most successful Human Resource placement firms, I understand the hiring process from an employer perspective: what employers seek from each step of the job application process. I founded the Ideal Interview Co. so anyone at any stage of their career can maximize their job search through professional, one-on-one consultation.

Whether you are looking for your first job, readying for a career move, or the market has necessitated a change, these unusual times demand a focused and determined approach to your search process. 

Preliminary research must identify the correct businesses and individuals to contact. Your resumé must penetrate an often-automated screening process while honestly representing your skills and experience. Your cover letter must sing, reflecting all the value you offer. And years working in recruitment have taught me that there is one key step in successfully landing a job: the interview. It all may seem daunting. You might fear having to navigate this process alone. But you don’t have to! You have I².
