My Services

The job market is highly challenging at the moment with lots of competition for roles.  It is essential that you stand out in the right way from your competitors.  The most important job is to be the president of your own brand and market yourself to others.  See yourself as an object to be sold to others and show what value you actually will bring to the organisation.  You need to ask yourself some key questions:

1. Who are you?
2. What are your passions?
3. What companies/industries are you looking to work for?
4. What transferable skills do you have that you want to show off?
5. What experience do you have?
6. Are you looking to progress in the same industry and/or role or are you looking for a career change?
7. How would you describe yourself?
8. What have been your career achievements to date?
9. Do you have any outside interests which support your skills?
Answering the above will allow a full and fair picture to be painted of you and what you will bring to an organisation. 

Complete the below Career Questionnaire to assist you with this.  You can also find some useful sites via this link .

CV Updating
​As you move through your career journey it is very easy to just update your CV by adding your most recent role rather than considering what is needed for the role that you want to move into in the future.  I will spend time reviewing your current CV looking at the skills that you have gained, how it fits with the role that you want to move into and creating a new CV layout for you, which either will be a standard, skills based or value based layout depending on where you are in your career.
£50.00 (up to 1 hours work plus 1 draft review)

CV Writing
Do you want a document that sells you and what you would bring to a business? Do you want a CV that showcases your skills and experience? I will write your CV to reflect who you are, what you can do and where you want to be in your career, which either will be a standard, skills based or value based layout depending on where you are in your career.​

Has it been a while since you had an interview or have you never had an interview before?
If you would like some help in preparing for an interview I offer a 60 minute interview coaching session.  If you're interested to find out more we'll have an initial 30 minute discovery call to chat about the support you are looking for and talk through how I could help so you can be sure you're getting the most benefit from our session together.  
 
You may want to work on all or some of these things:
1. How to prepare for different types of interviews and questions
2. Preparing responses to competency questions using the STAR method 
3. Building confidence in an interview 
4. How to handle informal or conversational interviews 
5. How to prepare answers for tricky questions
