Are you returning to work after a career break?
Are you looking to change careers?

If so, putting a CV together will be a challenge and there’s lots of conflicting advice. Join us for this exclusive CV workshop where we will walk you through the blueprint to creating a successful CV that overcomes gaps in employment and seemingly irrelevant experience.

Whether you are applying for jobs internally or externally, this 50-minute webinar will provide leading-edge information on creating a CV that will significantly increase interview rates and help you secure a new position.

Specifically aimed at career changers and returners to work in tech, this will be much more than a top 10 tips session, and previous webinars have been described as “outstanding” and “truly inspirational”.

In this fast-paced and engaging webinar you will learn how to:
✅ Create a CV that de-emphasises gaps and promotes your best experience
✅ Assess whether you need a traditional or skills-based CV
✅ Use marketing techniques such as keyword optimisation and social proofing
✅ Create a skills-based CV that is still optimised for ATS
✅ Save time by creating a CV that takes just minutes to tailor for each role
✅ Harness the power of case studies in your CV to help you negotiate a higher salary
✅ Create a winning Profile that instantly gets recruiters’ attention And the things that you should NEVER do on your CV if you are changing careers or returning to work after a career break.
