"Was the coach prepared? John was awesome, and I was quite impressed with how aware he was of my circumstances he was from the information that I provided in the scheduling questionnaire. I have shown up to second and third job interviews where the interviewer knew less about me than John did, so I was almost taken aback by how seriously he seemed to take understanding my situation and my goals. Time allotted - Interestingly enough, I actually thought that 30 minutes was sufficient (and actually cut my time short because I had asked everything I wanted to ask). I understand it may be too difficult, but I would actually prefer cheaper 30 minute calls which would enable me to provide updates, ask any additional questions, and get more specific advice at several points throughout the long and arduous process of applying to units. Things to improve - Completely and totally nitpicking (but from what I understand, that's what debriefs are for), but the confirmation email for the general strategy session had a bit in there about replying to the email to tell the coach exactly what I wanted to focus on, though I had just filled out a questionnaire with that information, so I wasn't sure if the information in the questionnaire was lost in the ether. However, I was hesitant to reach out directly because I understand that John is incredibly busy and I didn't want to unnecessarily inundate him with more emails. As I said, an incredibly small detail, but something that I did spend some time debating because the process wasn't crystal clear. Overall - I legitimately couldn't believe that I was actually talking to a fighter pilot for a second at the beginning, because it is just such an amazing opportunity to be able to go directly to such a knowledgable source for a process as difficult as this. There are dozens of moving parts that take place over years, so having this avenue to remove any guesswork and ensure that you are consistently focusing your efforts on the most pressing items that may be preventing you from a dream job is just an unbelievable resource. BogiDope is such an unbelievably valuable resource, and after my short interaction with John (and listening to many of the webinars), I will undoubtedly be purchasing more 1-on-1 classes as I begin checking off some of the boxes on this journey. I honestly likely wouldn't have the confidence to attempt this career path without the guidance and wisdom that I have received from the BogiDope ecosystem so far, and I'm just getting started with my membership."

"The mentorship I got from CHAOS was invaluable. To get guidance from an actual fighter pilot boosted my confidence so much. I have no doubt that the support I was given was an absolute game changer - worth every cent!"

"Chris went above and beyond to teach me how to do well in upcoming UPT boards. He was friendly, approachable, and never rushed me at any point. But he also didn't mince words, and I'm glad he didn't. I'm more than certain that all of the BogiDope coaches are upstanding gentlemen who know what they're doing and are passionate about helping the next generation of aviators, but Chris is the cream of the crop. Do not let him go! Thank you again, Chris!"

"CHAOS was excellent, super helpful, with direct, actionable items that helped me target specific improvements between our sessions. Went through the "Interview Prep" program for an Active Duty slot. The information shared, structure of the sessions, and overall benefit when it came to game time was invaluable. If anything to help with peace of mind hearing directly from folks who are already in flying positions, to help guide you or tie any loose ends. Do your homework as you prep, hit it hard, and know you're in good hands. I used items from the coaching in every question I was asked in the interview. Invaluable benefit. 1,000% recommend!"

"Thank you to Frances and the BogiDope team! The consultation was more then I could have asked for. Issues and concerns were addressed thouroughly. Insight was provided and easing. Frances brings so much knowledge and experience to the conversation. I highly recommned the consulation for anyone looking to fly in the Army who is stressed about the medical process, has questions about the process, or needs to run concerns by a highly professional individual."

"HUSKY was awesome! Super helpful, gave a ton of insightful comments on my resume / cover letter, and was very open about any questions I had on my application. Helped to highlight different parts of my resume that, while present in my previous draft, needed a bit more highlighting. Being someone who is constrained on money (student loans, rent, car payments, flight school, and a job that doesn't pay great) I think a cheaper course would have been easier. This was sort of something that Husky and I discussed that I didn't know about. A lot of the kids who can afford these courses may use their family's past wealth to pay for it. Given that I don't have that luxury, it becomes a bit harder. Therefore, a cheaper course would have been financially easier for me. Please note, this is not at all a reflection on the quality of the session with HUSKY. HUSKY was awesome, super prepared (even sent me stuff outside of the mentoring session), gave insightful comments, critiques, and provided more realism about the squadrons that I would not have otherwise known. Overall very happy. Could be cheaper. "
