When I got put in touch with Mike, I had already been searching for a job for 7 months. I was feeling frustrated and very down about how little luck I had in that time. Mike gave me my confidence back in myself. With his expertise, he helped me prepare for interviews, made sure my CV showcased my experience, and reassured me during my applications. After only a few months of working with Mike, I got an offer! The guidance and mock interviews we did together were so helpful, they kept me in a calm and positive mindset walking into that final interview panel. Now I get to go back to working in a job I am passionate about. Thank you again Mike!

I thought the cv information was really interesting as I had not been aware of many of the things you could do with a cv e.g. storytelling. I also thought the tip on following up an application with the company will be really useful because I have never done this before. A really informative workshop, which taught me lots of helpful tips and tricks to improve my performance during the job hunting process. Thanks,

Mike was a huge help and resource for me throughout the turbulent process of securing a graduate job post my Masters’ degree. Beginning with providing advice on my CV content and structure and helping with finding job opportunities and then progressing on to helping research specific companies I applied for and aiding with interview practice by thinking of possible questions, Mike helped me to feel prepared and ready to face the entire application process. Crucially, his supportive and personalised approach meant that I always felt able to talk to Mike about any issues I was having with applications, and this helped to give me the confidence to succeed and secure my graduate role and I wish to thank Mike again for his invaluable support.

The most useful aspect of the workshop came through the support given regarding assessments and interview tips. The information regarding questions that I could potentially ask employers at the end or during the interview was extremely helpful and definitely something I would look to incorporate if given an interview somewhere. Furthermore, I also found studies and research that you included very interesting, e.g. the use of standing up while on a telephone interview to increase energy levels. Very insightful, with key information and tips which will no doubt improve my employability chances. Thanks,
