Pros

The team at LaunchSource are an outstanding group! I had been interviewing for a few months on my own and was having issues getting into the industry I was passionate about. Having not much "real world" experience as I was a college graduate it was difficult for companies to take me seriously. In comes LaunchSource; I decided to give some recruiters a try and LaunchSource was by far the best of the bunch that I experienced. Within a week of Interview day I had 4-5 companies reaching out to me. Matt, Steven, and Sasanka were all very invested in having me be successful, calling me to see how interviews went, and keeping the momentum going. I am now in a wonderful company that I am passionate and excited to participate in. My recommendation to anyone going to the interview day is to be confident and show you want to be there more than the rest. I was in a room of people far more experienced than I and I ended up with the job. Interview day allows you to show how you can perform in front of strangers and (friendly) competitors. So if the position is something you really believe in, don't hesitate to show them. Volunteer first, show energy, ask questions and make sure they remember you; that's half the fun.

Cons

There was only one really small inconvenience throughout the whole process, but it has been remedied so honestly, there wasn't anything. Go for it!

Pros

I recently applied and successfully went through the Launch-Source program after graduating from college. I consider myself a pretty good candidate for any business to hire, I was an athlete at school and maintained very strong grades at a good public university so felt I had some stuff going for me. However, Applying to jobs ended up being much more stressful than I ever imagined and was overwhelmed with the vast amount of businesses offering poor starting salaries or a severe lack of upward mobility. Launch-source got me interviews I never would have gotten otherwise, then coached me through the process. I made a number of blunders in the interview stages that they were able to save or correct. When I graduated college I was completely ignorant of some steps that good companies in good industries expect when you interview. Out of ignorance I ruined several great opportunities simply because no one had ever taught me how to actually interview!!! I cannot stress this enough, I would never have been able to secure the position I did end up getting without Launch-Source coaching me through the process. I owe my current position entirely to them, and it should be noted I am extremely happy at the company and just killing it. Launch-Source rocks. Cheers.

Cons

None. Just realize that it is a process and be open to feedback. Try to behave professionally and ask questions. Mistakes are ok, just learn not to repeat them. Also note that it is a process and it could take a while in terms of days or weeks, but thats fine, if your actually seeking a job that you really want and see yourself growing with the company.
