CV lesson resource for years 10 to 13 assembly and tutor delivery

This video is ready to use by any school leader, teacher, or tutor:

  • In a workshop that you deliver.
  • In assembly. 
  • In tutor time, either in one session (11 minutes) or in stages. 

In the video, I talk through the key sections of a CV, why they are important, and what to include in them. 

Importantly, I encourage all participants to understand that they have already done things that are valuable to their first or next employer. 

Why do I speak

about this?

I speak from experience of:

  • 14 years writing CVs for people from apprentice to CEO.
  • A track record of getting people selected first-time.
  • Writing CVs internationally, in all industries I can think of. 
  • Being an employer, manager, consultant and researcher, and former recruiter.

People say this about my work:

“The session was pitched perfectly to meet the needs and requirements of our learners. It gave them tips and hints; inspiring them to believe in their own abilities and raise their self-esteem. An invaluable workshop not to be missed.”
