Which CV Writer Package do you need?
Wondering which CV package aligns perfectly with your needs? The answer lies within the job advertisement and description. By examining these closely, you'll find it explicitly outlines the qualities and skills the ideal candidate should possess.
There are
four pillars of the application:
CV
Rarely does a CV alone secure the interview, especially a one-size-fits-all. It needs tailoring to fit the job's selection criteria, but without a cover letter, it's like a ship without a sail.
Cover Letter
In your cover letter, highlight skills and achievements that meet the employer's criteria, using examples that show you're the ideal fit for the role and can address their challenges effectively.
Selection Criteria
The crux of the matter, these criteria might be spelled out or subtly implied. Addressing them, whether in your cover letter or a separate document, could pivot your application from trashed to shortlisted.
linkedIn
Think of your linkedIn profile as your professional persona in the digital world. It's crucial for roles in management, marketing, and sales, although not mandatory for every industry.
In essence, your application isn't just about listing your experiences; it's about stitching together a narrative that resonates with your prospective employer. If crafting such a narrative seems daunting, fear not. Help is just an email or call away, ready to ensure your pitch is not just heard but also hits the mark.
Your cover letter (or its digital version) and linkedIn profile stem from your CV. Every document in your job application should reinforce your 'sales pitch' for the specific role. LinkedIn is essential for certain roles, like sales executives, but it's seldom required for entry-level and general job applications.
Being in a job without direct reports or holding a supervisory role falls under general employment (this page), whereas executive roles come with the responsibility of directly managing staff and/or overseeing budgets (executive CV page).
Can we chat before I make a purchase?
Yes, we can definitely have a quick chat for about fifteen minutes before you decide to buy any CV package.
Click on the phone, anytime night and day, to book a complimentary 15 minute call at a time that suits you.
Once you've made a purchase, for the £130 and above packages, we can catch up over Zoom or a phone call at a time that works for both of us. This will be a good chance to discuss what you need from your CV, how we can approach it, or to tweak any documents. It would really help if I could take a look at your old or current CV and the job ad or description before we have our first chat.
