Interviewing Tips/Expert Profile

Expertise

I can answer specific questions on resume and interview techniques, and my area of expertise is with graduates or people who are new to the job market. I would prefer to only answer questions from this group of people. It is easier to list the questions I cannot answer - such as 'How do I get a job' or 'Will you write my CV'. I can answer questions on interview techniques, NLP and body language, interview skills as well as give detailed CV advice. I do not write CVs, but can advise on specific issues relating to CVs. Please contact me - if I can help I will! It is great to help people entering the job market for the first time - simply because the world of employment is confusing and sometimes tough to get into! Some very simple techniques during interviews, and for writing CVs can really make a big difference to candidates. By utilizing these techniques, candidates can get their CVs noticed and their face remembered with very little effort!

Experience in the area

I work in senior management and have interviewed 1000+ people, mostly graduates.

Organizations

I am a memebr of the ALUMNI at my University and regularly get requests for help and advice from students and graduates on everything from CVs to interviews.

Education/Credentials

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I still learn something in every interview, which is great and allows me to pass on the do's and don'ts to questioners on this site!
