Speaking and workshops

Job application speaker and workshop facilitator

If you want to develop job application skills, career management skills, and the ability of a group of people to market their Personal Value Proposition, then I have a talk or workshop that will fit these needs.

I speak from expertise developed whilst helping people succeed in the job market and being a Level 7 qualified Chartered Marketer. The outcomes are the development of career marketing skills and greater success from fewer job applications.

These are best delivered as interactive workshops but short introductory talks are also available.

Job application skills

My presentations are known to increase the confidence and aspirations of participants. Before and after feedback shows a transformation in the confidence of participants to apply for jobs and a belief that they can succeed.

As a specialist job applications speaker, I train people to understand the value that they offer to employers and communicate that.

Reviews and feedback of my job application consultancy show that all clients succeed in obtaining their ideal job. Reviews are 100% 5*.

Career skills development

Job application skills are useful at all stages of your career. Not just in obtaining your first job, but progressing to different roles, changing to a different industry, or moving up in your chosen field. I’ve helped people get their first leadership role, first director role, first CEO role, or change industries and functions.

The challenges of presenting yourself as your target role are different at each stage of your career, so career management and marketing are worthwhile skills to develop. These are a great form of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

Career management workshops

Maybe you want to help people obtain their first management job or move into a more responsible role, become a director or a business leader.

These workshops are perfect for widening opportunities and upskilling groups. They will have a lasting effect on participants’ ability to manage their careers.

These workshops are great for professional institutes, trade bodies, social enterprises, or large organisations that want to upskill a more diverse leadership group.

Career management talks

If you want to provide a boost of confidence, get people to think about job applications in a new way, learn how to understand their specific value, and succeed in job applications, a talk could be the way to achieve it.

Employability skills

These job application and career management skills are part of the wider employability remit. Getting selected for a job obviously requires being qualified for it. But, so many people don’t get the jobs they are qualified for because they don’t communicate their value properly or they undervalue what they have to offer.

It’s not surprising when people have never been trained to communicate about themselves.

If you want to go beyond the basics of ‘tailor your job application and do a spellcheck’ then I can provide a transformation.

Results you can expect

As a professional CV writer, marketer and former recruiter, I will speak enthusiastically to any audience on how to give the best possible representation of themselves, get interviews and succeed in the job market.

I speak from knowledge of writing CVs for candidates worldwide, in almost every industry and at every level, from school leavers up to CEOs of international organisations.
