Real guidance from a journey recently travelled.
Competitive recruitment isn't short of information. What's harder to find is relevant, personalised guidance from someone who has recently navigated the same decisions.
OfferLine was founded by Rishabh Shah after navigating competitive recruitment from Loughborough University and securing experience across spring weeks/insight programmes, a summer internship, an industrial placement and graduate recruitment processes, including multiple return offers.

Before you book.
For a Power Session, answer a few quick questions about what you want to focus on, then pick a time in the booking calendar. For a programme, send an enquiry and we will plan the sessions and reviews with you. Sessions take place on Cal Video. Payment is by bank transfer, and the details are sent by email.
Sessions are with the founder, Rishabh Shah. If you would like guidance from someone with experience in a specific area, tell us what you're aiming for and we will point you to the most relevant mentor or session.
Written reviews are arranged by enquiry rather than a calendar booking. Send an enquiry from the Book a Session page and we will reply by email.
No. OfferLine is for ambitious students from any university background. What matters is the effort you are willing to put in.
You send context beforehand (CV, role or interview details), we work through it together, and every session ends with clear next actions in writing.
Start with one session.
Book a single session or review, with no subscription and no commitment.
