Sell your skills and talents with confidence

You know the job you want to go for – now how do you best market and sell yourself? ​ 

​I support women on the practical side of career consultancy including job search strategy and planning, CV and cover letter preparation, getting the most out of LinkedIn, and interview preparation - everything you need to get hired for your ideal family-friendly job. 

Below is a selection of the programmes I offer. Please do get in touch for further details, or to talk through your  options.

Jump-Start Your Job Search 

My JumpStart Your Job Search programme covers all aspects of the
modern job search - from getting prepared and in the mindset to succeed, to negotiating a job offer with confidence.
​
​
During the course of the programme you will get:
​
  • Advice on how to prepare for your job search to set yourself up for success. Say goodbye to stress and overwhelm!
 
  • Clarity on exactly what job you are looking for and what you have to offer. What value do you add and what are the problems you, uniquely, can solve for prospective employers?
​
  • The secrets to finding family-friendly and flexible work options, and when and how to ask for your ideal work arrangement during the job search process. ​​​

  • ​A personalised job search strategy including ways of finding the 70% of jobs that don't make it to the job boards, building and working your network, and the job search resources available to you.​​ 
​​
  • A precisely tailored, value-driven CV and cover letter that will get you into the interview 'yes' pile.
​​​
  • Knowledge of how to use and optimise LinkedIn to support your job search, and a perfectly perfected LinkedIn profile. ​ ​
​
  • Interview skill techniques and answers to all those tricky interview questions about time you have spent out of the workplace to raise a family, and your home/ family life. 
​
  • ​The ability to negotiate like a pro to earn what you are worth and deserve, and to get the workplace flexibility and other benefits you are wanting.  
​​​​
  • An action plan so you are clear on exactly what you need to do, how you are going to do it, and when. ​​
Included in the programme:​

  • 6 x 75 minute sessions held online (through Zoom).
  • A 30-minute follow-up phone call four weeks after the end of the programme to review the progress you have made and trouble-shoot any challenges you might be encountering. 
  • Weekly, or bi-weekly, accountability emails from me to keep your job search on track.
  • Unlimited support in-between sessions - via email or short telephone calls.
  • An extensive range of relevant exercises, resources and easy to customise templates including ‘elevator pitch,’ CV, cover letter, and email networking.
  • Relevant introductions to my connections and network, as required.
  • A huge boost to your job search confidence, and someone to cheer you on every step of the way!
