Interview Me Live

My first venture into entrepreneurship began in 2008 when I started Interview Me Live as a college project. 

Interview Me Live's aim was simple: conduct live online interviews between students and employers for post-graduate and internship positions via a social network.

Users uploaded pre-recorded interviews and video resumes onto our social network after creating their profile. 

Examples of students’ work outside of a paper resume provided employers a more well-formed perspective of what they could offer to an organization.

We co-hosted a career fair with The University of Texas and worked within the university this to classrooms. 
 
I learned a lot and enjoyed working with stakeholders and our team to bring an idea to launch.

• Enrolled 29 employers, including 14 Fortune 500 companies, to career fair
• Managed remote team of 6 while living in Washington, DC during academic fellowship

• Developed video blogs of my personal experience at the university and abroad, resulting in our "Blogger of the Week" interactive poll

Assistant to Private Wealth Advisor

You’re a founder in your 1st or 2nd year of your current business.

You’re not interested in making money fast. You want to make your money last.

You care deeply about helping others, including building wealth to pass down to your family.

You want to own your time.

You want to create a legacy.

The problem is, you ask yourself “Exactly HOW do I get there?”

So you may be struggling with:

• Being disorganized and distracted rather than disciplined and focused
• Lacking clear next steps leading to procrastinating instead of executing
• Finding time in your day to get everything done without feeling overwhelmed
• Finding the right mentors and support to fill in the missing pieces of what you don’t know
• Not having the sustained motivation and systems to achieve your goals – and sticking to those systems

You’ve tried courses, seminars and YouTube.

But the courses aren’t personalized to your specific situation. They’re not interactive enough and they don’t feel genuine.

The seminars provide valuable inspiration, but the motivation from them only lasts so long. You wish you walked away with a mentor or support for clear next steps.

YouTube provides great information, but you know that if you take the wrong information it’s almost worse than not taking anything at all.

So you keep trying different solutions but none of them work to provide exactly what you need…

Your business requires the best version of yourself.

Organized. Consistent. Clear.

Daily.

The courses, seminars and YouTube help, but the truth is you have to go deeper.

Most solutions help to fix the surface level problem.

They don’t get to the root of the cause.

It’s kind of like a weed...

They’re cutting the weed off at the surface but it’s still growing back.

To get rid of a weed for good, you need to find its roots and pull it out.

Only then can you have sustainable success.

That’s what we do:

We transform your subconscious mind at the root-level of your identity with daily agreements.

Because we know that when the business owner grows, the business grows.

As a result, my clients accomplish more in 90 days than most people do in 1 year (or more).

That’s why 96% of client respondents report my work as “life-changing”.

What would your life look like 1 year from today if you achieved all of your most important goals in the next 90 days?

Become the best version of yourself with a leader who cares about helping you to get there.

– 

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”

Let’s do this together: https://calendly.com/robertcollier/connect
