Once you have a CV, please use our CV Review Tool.  The feedback provided is based on key criteria that recruiters and hiring managers look for.  You can keep amending your CV and reloading for feedback. We recommend you keep doing this until your CV is showing as ‘Ready’ . This tool provides basic feedback which is useful before you see an Adviser for more in-depth and tailored support.

AI and Job Applications

Once you have used the CV Review Tool, we recommend booking an appointment with us. We have Advisers who specialise in different areas of recruitment. Please check the description carefully to select the appointment type relevant to your current job search.

If you are applying for part-time graduate-level roles, please book a Graduate Recruitment appointment, not a Part-Time Jobs appointment.
