Thank you very much for this valuable course. It is very clear and useful. I have learned a lot, and I now feel more prepared for a job interview in the US or any other country. Thank you again.

I did not know before that finding applying and interviewing is like a science thing that I have to study and educate myself for, I found that the course is very good and standardise the whole idea
