1. Start with the end in mind and start researching – what is your dream role? What are the similar job descriptions that exist, what knowledge, skills and experience do you need/have?
2. Start listing all your jobs (even if you think they are insignificant), most experience is relevant and will have transferable skills you can highlight. Include all relevant non-work activities too – these all count.
3. Start tailoring your roles to your future job in terms of knowledge, skills, experience and key achievements.
4. Enjoy the process and be proud of what you have achieved to date - this process will help you get in the right mind set and be ready for smashing interviews.
5. Use a good CV template that isn’t too fussy and keep it to two sides ideally – edit and tailor your experience, skills and strengths, so they are suited to your dream role.
6. Start applying for jobs! Use your CV content in Linked in and other social media, start networking and telling other people about your work and experiences to date.
