Kevin O’Reilly

Kevin is a mindset and communications coach that specialises in interview coaching.  He uses advanced coaching techniques from his training as a behavioural analyst, an NLP practitioner and Hypnotist to give people hope for the future, courage to overcome their fears now and build confidence beyond what the client believes possible.  He works with individuals on a one-to-one basis and provides workshops for schools and colleges.  In addition, he also works closely with organisations both public and private, who have employees going through efficiency and redundancy processes prepare for the future.  His motivation is to help as many people as he can get the career they want, because he passionately believes that “on the other side of a successful interview is the life you deserve!”

He worked for over 20 years as a manager and area manager for a large sports retailer across the UK.  Where he achieved the accolade of achieving a Chartered Manager status for his services and experience in leadership and management through the Chartered Manager Institute.

The pandemic gave him an opportunity to do something new.  He re-trained and started his own business (interviewskillsCoach.co.uk) which focuses improving clients lives through mindset coaching and communication and presentation mastery.  He now also hosts and produces his own podcast “The Interview Jobcast”, where he interviews individuals and organisations around the topic of interviews.

What excites you about your district role?

As a president I got the buzz of being able to help the club members develop themselves and grown their confidence.  As an Area Director I got to do that across a complete area of 4 clubs. And now as a Division Director I have the opportunity to help even more clubs and even more people grow and develop into the person they can be, when someone shows them how to get out of their own way.
