More than just a resume writer
On the way to becoming a marketing strategist and copywriter, via a public service career and private sector roles, I’ve learned a fair bit about the challenge of changing careers and starting again.
I’ve learned it’s incredibly hard to recognise our own skills and strengths, let alone come up with a resume that captures who we are and the value we offer to potential employers.
So, that’s the part I focus on, uncovering those hidden talents and transferable skills you don’t see, and helping you put your unique value into words that connect with your ideal employers.
This is about more than just a resume or navigating the recruitment process – it’s about building the confidence to pursue opportunities to engage in meaningful work. Are you in?
Getting help with your job search can include:
Resume/CV
Cover letter
Selection criteria
LinkedIn profile
Interview skills
