Why Invest in Candidate Prep?

Outstanding candidates fail interviews every day, not because they lack ability, but because they’re poorly prepared. We do this all the time. If you aren’t a recruiter, you might go through a round of interviews every few years. Of course they are out of practice! 

Each failed interview costs you thousands in lost commissions and damages both candidate and client relationships. This comprehensive program transforms your approach to candidate preparation by addressing the three critical areas where most interviews fall apart:

  • Confidence: Turn nervous candidates into composed professionals
  • Communication: Help candidates articulate their value clearly and memorably
  • Control: Guide candidates through challenging questions and unexpected scenarios in ways you never dreamed

What Makes This Program Different:

  • Complete preparation system that covers every interview stage
  • Specific strategies for different interview formats (panel, technical, behavioral)
  • Practical frameworks to help candidates showcase their achievements
  • Tools to address common client concerns before they arise

You’ll learn how to:

  • Conduct effective pre-interview strategy sessions
  • Help candidates translate their experience into compelling stories
  • Prepare candidates for tough questions without over-rehearsing
  • Build candidate confidence without creating overconfidence
  • Handle last-minute interview preparation effectively

The Result: Higher offer rates, stronger client relationships, and faster placements. Most importantly, you’ll give your candidates the tools they need to showcase their true potential.

This isn’t about basic interview tips – it’s about mastering the art of preparation that turns good candidates into must-hire talent. Whether you’re placing junior developers or senior executives, these techniques will dramatically improve your placement outcomes.

What Recruiters Are Saying

Here’s what top recruiters say about Jason & Tricia

Cara Houshmand
Accountants One
"I highly recommend Tricia and Jason’s eSSentials: An Intro to eSourcing. It is much more than Boolean searching and they delve into the why’s and how behind it so you walk away with a deep understanding and ability to effectively put all of the information together. I was finding better candidates after week 1, 4 sessions later and I am routinely finding those “purple squirrels” in less time that it used to find mediocre candidates. Tricia title of Master of sorcery is well deserved."

Matthew Moses

"Nine years. I believe it’s been nine years since my first eSSentials class with Tricia and Moore eSSentials. Nine years on, and I still make daily use of the tools she and Jason taught, and continue to teach as the course evolves. Her depth of knowledge of the subject matter obviously comes from years of practical experience. I’ve found Tricia’s ability to clearly and patiently explain the content with just the right amount of wit injected to be her greatest gift. The tools Moore eSSentials teaches are, in my opinion, required learning for any recruiter who wants to run an efficient, effective, and authentic/human practice. You set the goals that are right for you and your business, and they’ll provide you the tools to make it happen!"

John Mein
Mein Executive Talent
"I just completed the 4 week Moore Essentials Sourcing Class and it was outstanding! Tricia and Jason are obvious experts in the field of recruiting from soup to nuts. They work so well together that the class is a joy to attend. I have been a recruiter for only two years and I learned so much from them. Another much more senior recruiter friend of mine had us sign up an Indian sourcing firm for $1500/month and the candidates they supplied were sub-par. Using the tools and techniques I learned from Tricia and Jason, I am now enabled to find far more and better candidates on my own. Both Tricia and Jason went out of their way to help every student in the class understand and use the concepts."
