What Clients and Colleagues Are Saying . . .
"Amelie’s ability to motivate and inform is unparalleled. Working with her for just one accelerated Power Session gave me the confidence I needed to make the most of my college interviews (which led me to get into my top choice!) She taught me how to sell myself – not just explain myself – in an interview, which is a skill I didn’t have before."
- L.Z., Brown University Undergrad
"Amelie Tseng, charismatic and upbeat, shared her invaluable insight and first-hand experience in helping our son to master the college interview. The three transformative sessions he took with her enabled him to navigate talking points intelligently and comprehensively. The sessions also led to considerable boosts in his overall demeanor and confidence – both vocally and physically. Amelie provided the tools that benefited our son's chances of getting admitted to the college of his choice, as well as, help him to shine in the real-world. We highly recommend Amelie’s guidance as an integral part of the college admissions process."

"The coaching program exceeded my expectations in helping me prepare for my next interview . . . it pinpointed specific aspects of the way I speak . . . honing in on the information I want to get across . . . Definitely a worthwhile experience since it gave me confidence in my answers. My most valuable takeaway would have to be the way that Amelie broke down the interview into digestible pieces, making the interview seem far from unsurmountable . . . It felt like the coaching program gave me a real edge."
-M.S., High School Senior
"After I graduated college, I was really frustrated with my job search. I had been fruitlessly looking for employment in advertising for months. Talking with Amelie gave me renewed strength and perspective, and she provided helpful tips on the industry and companies that I could apply to."

"Amelie was great! She really gave me the confidence I needed in my answers! Interview Bootcamp gave me the ability and confidence to answer any interview question I may get. Amelie taught me how to take control of the interview, and really demonstrate my professional value to a company. She helped me gain confidence, and really focused on what I wanted to work on. I would recommend Interview Bootcamp because Amelie helps you prepare your interview answers for any question that comes your way!
-C.T., Trinity College Graduate
"I found this coaching program very helpful and beneficial . . . I was able to come out of my shell more and talk about myself in a way that I don’t usually do . . . I would definitely recommend this program to others. I would not feel prepared for interviews without doing this program. There was so much I realized about myself too. I now know how to talk about myself better, I find this extremely important."
- C.C., High School Senior
Amelie is my go-to recommendation for interview help for my students. She’s warm and easy to be with, and really knows her stuff. When kids know how to prepare for an interview, they are less nervous and more able to present their unique, authentic selves. Amelie’s coaching provides them exactly that opportunity".
-J. Wolf, College Essay Coach/The Essay House
"I would like to recommend Amelie Tseng who worked with me in the early days of rebranding Bravo at NBCU. Her enthusiasm, tenacity and collaborative work style as head of the PR/Communications group were critical to the successful rebrand of the Bravo network and creating the buzzy brand that launch such hit franchises as The Real Housewives and Top Chef."

Amelie was a great asset for ION as she helped the network receive tremendous press attention. She is very resourceful, and has great relationships with everyone in the industry. So even under challenging conditions, she's able to attract press coverage in an incredibly seamless manner. And it's a joy to work with Amelie.

"Amelie Tseng is the best in the industry. She seems to know personally and is respected by every mover and shaker in television and the new media communities. Her graciousness and patience makes everyone she works with feel comfortable and confident they will succeed. She has a gift for honing in on the message that most resonates with the press and tells a vivid and memorable story. She showed me what it's like to work with a pro and I am better at my job as a result. I'd be thrilled to work with her again."
-P. O'Brien, Associate Creative Director, Prudential Financial
"Even back in the early years when Amelie and I were East/West Coast counterparts on USA Network promoting their entry into original film production, she was a hardworking, superbly organized and wicked smart executive. We joked that she did all the work in NY while I handheld talent in the back of a limousine in LA - an exaggeration sure, but also a kernel of truth. Importantly, the media respected her, as did her peers. She remains amazing on the phone in a media pitch - a prompt "not interested" was massaged into "OK send me materials" and then "Set up the interview" and ultimately "it'll run next week." Truly amazing on the front lines then and as we've "grown-up" professionally I know that the only change is her abilities have been honed even more strategically and creatively."
-S. Feldstein, Strategic Communications Executive
"Amelie and I worked together when I was at USA Network and she was head of publicity for Trio. She is a talented executive who created and executed many high-profile campaigns and events and the results were astonishing. She earned the respect of management and colleagues for her ability to position the network's messages on target and for building a strong brand for the network and its shows. She's a leader who embraces strategy and her execution is flawless, but most of all, I admire her for her integrity and generosity in sharing her knowledge."
-R. Sato, Former Sony Pictures TV, USA Networks Executive
"I've known and worked with Amelie for 25 years or more, and always found her unfailingly helpful, informed and quick to respond. She knows the media business better than many of her peers and is always professional and friendly even when dealing with challenging situations. Amelie is a true pro, and I would love to work with her anytime."
-M. Burgi, Former Editor-in-Chief/Associate Publisher, MediaWeek/Adweek
