CV guidance
Writing an effective CV highlighting skills and achievements. Consultants will advise on the language to use, the layout and the introduction of buzz words which enable recruiters searching the on-line CV databases to find them. Also we focus on the inclusion of achievements rather than just duties and responsibilities. Our consultant may as part of the session help to tailor a CV or start to produce a CV from scratch.
Transferable skills
If relevant, as part of this process we will also advise on transferable skills along with the advantages of both biographical and functional CV’s, helping to create career changer CV if required.
Job search action plan
Our Consultant will focus the individual upon the best methods / techniques to use in their job search. This may include demonstrating how to upload a CV to a database; create a LinkedIn profile; set up job alerts; write a covering letter; conduct speculative approaches; utilise recruitment agencies effectively; network effectively; plus other support as required.
Interview preparation
A key part of having a positive interview is to predict potential questions in advance and prepare answers. We show you how to do this with a focus upon competency / behavioural based interviews where you are asked to provide examples of what you have done which 60% of interviewers now use. We also cover questions such as: What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses? Where do you see yourself in 2 years’ time? Tell me something about yourself? along with general interview preparation and other areas to consider.
Job seekers guides / On-line support internet site
We provide two very comprehensive written guides to support our sessions:
The only job hunting guide you will ever need...!
The only interview guide you will ever need...!
The interview guide includes 280 interview questions with advice on preparing for them. In addition our on-line resource site has further support and guidance including videos on using the STAR technique and body language.
Location for support
Support is usually delivered within five working days of assignment, held local to the individual in a private meeting room. We utilise Regus Business Centres predominantly. If opting for online support, the first 2 hour session will be held within 2 working days.
Online support 10 hours
Our first online 1-2-1 session is normally 2 hours long covering job hunting, CV structure and content, LinkedIn, career choices / transferable skills or self-employment / retirement planning. Follow on sessions will usually look at interview preparation, provide feedback on scenario based prepared interview answers etc or self-employment. Time is taken in blocks of time as required either as online support or telephone support over a 6 month period.
