      INTRODUCTION

      Having coached a wide variety of people at all stages in their careers, I have now put my fingers to the keyboard to share my experiences with you. My clients have come from all walks of life, different industry sectors and different stages in their careers, from first jobs through to Chief Executives of multimillion-pound organisations. Many have suggested that I write books and so I have finally given in and done just that! I hope you find this booklet helpful and any others in the series that you use.

      This booklet is part of the ‘Your Brilliant…’ series. I have written this series for anyone who is looking for advice and guidance on getting and securing their next role, whether it is their first role, a complete change of career direction or the next step on their career path. Each booklet covers a specific career-coaching topic and I have written them in this way so that you can pick and choose the support you need for your own career-coaching needs. Each booklet is designed for you to work through and coach yourself to career success!

      Introduction to Your Brilliant CV

      Advice and guidance on CVs can be found everywhere. You only have to type ‘CV’ into any internet search engine and you will come up with many thousands of sites all offering their take on what you should and shouldn’t do to write a CV.

      It is CV overload! To help you cut through all of this, I have, in this booklet, brought together my years of experience in helping people at all levels to write professional, successful CVs. This booklet concentrates on the facts, providing you with lots of practical advice and guidance that has been tried and tested by my clients, thereby helping them to write brilliant CVs that get them interviews.

      This booklet is relevant for anyone who wants to write and/or update their CV,
