It's a great wish to aim for

Knowing how to outshine the competition to win a dream role?

People win by being indispensable to their recruiter & interviewer customers

Here's how I help them achieve that;

I weave purpose-driven micro-stories to tightly link people to their recruiter & interviewer customers

𝙄 𝙬𝒓𝙞𝒕𝙚 𝙧𝒊𝙫𝒆𝙩𝒊𝙣𝒈, 𝙚𝒏𝙜𝒂𝙜𝒊𝙣𝒈, & 𝙛𝒐𝙘𝒖𝙨𝒆𝙙 𝒔𝙩𝒐𝙧𝒊𝙚𝙨

How I help...

𝟭. 𝗚𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 a 𝗖𝗩

In 20+ years headhunting, most applicants wrote weak CVs. Even though many were great candidates, I helped them articulate it

Working with an engaging, customer-focused structure I wordsmith the best version of a person to give them a riveting, customer-engaging presence

𝟮. 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘆

Aiming high is great but without a plan but it's all luck & stress, unless people have a guide

I have been the guide chosen by hundreds of senior executives to shepherd them through their journey into their next green pasture

𝟯. 𝗚𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 & 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲

LinkedIn profiles are a personal brand statement. Is a person a star, average, or easily forgetable?

Executive recruiters & interviewers always use a LinkedIn profile with a CV. So, each needs to add strong flavour to the recipe for success

My 20+ years executive recruitment experience adds depth & richness to a person's recipe that delights their customer

𝟰. 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄

Bad interviews happen because interviewees are poor candidates and interviewers are untrained

Excellent candidates save interviewers

I guide across the 6 W's of What, When, Where, Why, Who & How to grow interview power & control

This is about people confidently controlling their career

I assist people to fulfil their dreams
