What our students have to say
“After meeting with Logan to go over interview questions, I received a job offer from US Steel, and I accepted it! I appreciated Logan’s help going over interview questions because I truly believe it helped me prepare for the interview. The interviewer called me personally and told me I nailed my interview, and he believed I was a great fit for the position!”
