CAREER REBOOT PROGRAMME

Work 1:1 through a proven 14-hour programme to gain career clarity, master positioning,  and accelerate your job search with insider headhunter knowledge.    

PART 1: CAREER PATH ACTIVATION 

Understanding your career target so that we can focus all our efforts 

I am your career navigator. We will work together to identify your target career path taking your experience, skills, personal style and interests into account. I have 20+ years of experience of which I spent 7 years as an executive headhunter working with thousands of people to help them land their dream job in leading organisations and growth stage businesses. 

Together we will: 

• Chart your career path 

• Identify target job(s) – including ones you may not know exist! 

• Discuss what you think you should – and shouldn’t – do next 

• Explore your motivations interests, passions, and strengths (superpowers!) 

• Conduct a skills and experience audit to identify and assess your unique skills

• Understand how you stack up vs others in the market (qualitative and quantitive)

• Go through your 360s and feedback documents to uncover hidden strengths (if you have them)

• Look at personality and style assessments you’ve done in the past to further round out the picture of you (if you have them). 

You may not clearly fit into one ‘career’ box; we work through all the possible combinations of you so that you leave with clarity on what role(s) you could do next and a genuine understanding of your skills and experiences that differentiate you from the crowd. After this exploratory and expansive session, we discuss any constraints you may have and how best to find a role that will really work for you. 

Inputs

• Your CV/Resume

• Skills and experience audit (tailored to your current)  

• Past performance evaluations / 360s (if you have them)

• Professional style assessments (e.g. Hogan, Korn Ferry Strengths Finder, Myers Briggs, etc) if you have them

Outputs

• Career path activation document that describes the types of role(s) to go after and identifies the skills and experiences that make you uniquely suited to those roles.

PART 2: YOUR PITCH, INTERVIEW STORIES, CV/RESUME AND LINKEDIN REBOOT'ED 

Communicating your unique value 

Taking the output from the career path activation phase, we craft your killer pitch that leaves a positive lasting impression. Do you know how to respond to one of the most common interview questions “so tell me about yourself” so that the interviewer remembers you? Are you clear on unique skills and experiences that differentiate you?  Do you know what to say in informal meetings so that the person is clear about what you are looking to do in the future and where you’ve had impact?  

We tailor your pitch to different situations including what the CEO should know about you, how to communicate to the hiring manager, as well as how to get on with HR and recruitment teams who are essential gatekeepers to the opportunities you want. We also tailor the pitch across the media including CV/Resume, email and discussions since the nuance here will matter.

We will:

• Identify the most relevant proof points in your career

• Craft the key messages to leave a lasting impression

• Tailor your pitch to formal and informal settings 

• Go through the top 3 interview questions you need to be ready with answers to 

• Review, refine, REBOOT and revitalise your CV/Resume tailored to your target career path 

• Create a LinkedIn page that stands out

Inputs

• Career path document & discussion 

Outputs
