## Resource

In this episode of The Coffee Chat, Ben is joined once again by Stephanie Hockman, a 35-year finance veteran, former Amherst College program director, and executive coach specializing in early-career recruiting. Stephanie breaks down exactly how to craft a powerful “Tell Me About Yourself” or “Walk Me Through Your Resume” response — the most important question in any finance interview. She reveals what interviewers are REALLY looking for: cultural fit, motivation, communication skills, and your personal narrative. You’ll learn how to develop your hook, communicate your unique value, and avoid the common pitfalls that sink candidates. Perfect for anyone preparing for banking, investing, consulting, or corporate finance recruiting.
