“I’m sending off application after application but just never get a response!
Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m just not employable.”
The challenge for inexperienced job hunters
Whether you’re looking for an internal promotion, a job elsewhere, or your very first job, it’s really important to learn how to market yourself, especially when you don’t have much experience. This includes everything from how you present yourself on social media, including platforms like LinkedIn, through to selling your strengths on CVs and cover letters. Networking is also key and to do that effectively, you’ll need to establish and understand your personal brand, and then let that shine through to others.

Thank you so much for recommending those job search sites to to me. It lead to 3 offers, I’m so thrilled.
What I found particularly useful about working with Caroline was straightforward info on the topic and understanding of where I want to be, taking into account my current experience.
I interviewed this afternoon and they offered me the job 10mins afterwards! Thank you for you time at short notice last week, it really helped the preparation.
Caroline has been incredibly patient, understanding and non-judgemental. Her thoughtful questioning has made me think about some of the limiting beliefs I have been carrying about myself – beliefs which have been affecting my ability to move forward positively.
Caroline has shown me some practical tools which have helped me recognise the value in my skills and identify what I am good at, whilst allowing me to focus on other areas which I need to strengthen.
Working through my MBTI profile with Caroline meant that it moved from simply being a ‘label’ to being something that helped me to understand my working style and preferences. This greater depth of understanding is interesting and handy to apply in day-to-day situations, not just as personal development. Caroline is personable and made the whole process a pleasant experience, as well as a useful one.
In such a competitive market, it’s great to learn how to have the edge. Thank you for your helpful masterclass Caroline!
Caroline has helped me to challenge myself to think in a different way and develop strategies to gain confidence in my new role. I’ve come away from my sessions with Caroline with a renewed sense of motivation and clarity on how I can move forward. I’ve noticed in the past few weeks that I’ve been actively using some of the approaches we identified in the session and I am seeing a difference.

Thank you so much for your time on Saturday morning, it was definitely 2 hours well spent. I have updated my linkedin and will continue to review it. I haven’t had chance to look through the whole work book but already it has helped me with an application. It’s definitely worthwhile for anyone looking for a job or to change career.
Caroline put me at ease straight away and created a relaxed atmosphere which can be very tricky on zoom! The workbook is an excellent resource and that alone is worth the fee. I’ve got lots to work on but feel like it’s helped me to focus my career development journey and think more confidently about myself and what I have to offer. Thank you!
