We know that the pandemic has caused an increasing number of people to enter the jobs market unexpectedly, and we also know how overwhelming it can be to suddenly find yourself needing to find work. For that reason we chatted to Maxine Hart from Wote Street People to create a podcast episode packed full of help and advice on how to get started. We cover everything from working out what role might suit you, to structuring your application, and how to give yourself the best possible chance of success.
Just a few of the top insights include:
Some people might have been out of work for a while due to being furloughed, so we also spent some time discussing how to present gaps on CVs. Similarly we also talked about how to sell yourself if you are someone that has closed your business and now back on the jobs market for the first time in years. This really is a truly practical episode with lots of useful help that you won’t want to miss!
