  • Cutting through the BS

    I’ve seen some folks comment on how this program’s interviewers can be pretty nasty, negative, etc…and that is exactly why I love this program. Tough questions help us learn what someone really thinks.

    As a corporate internal auditor I have so much to learn from their style.
