Advice from the people who actually do the hiring
A lot of CV advice comes from somewhere far away from the room where hiring decisions get made.
The Appointments Personnel team is in that room every day.
We read 200+ CVs a week, and most get less than 30 seconds before a decision is made. This session shows you what earns a CV more than those first few seconds.
So when we suggest a change, it is grounded in what employers are responding to right now.
From guessing in the dark to knowing exactly what to fix
Right now you might be tweaking a word here and there, sending the same CV out again and hoping this time is different. That guesswork is exhausting, and it usually doesn't tell you anything.
By the end of the 30 minutes the picture changes. You will understand how a recruiter reads a CV in the first few seconds, why some profiles pull the right roles towards them, and the changes that make the biggest difference.
You leave knowing exactly what to do next, with the template in hand to do it.
The waiting feels very different once you know what you are waiting on.
