Ever wonder why your CV isn't landing you those senior role interviews? In this episode, we tackle the common pitfalls that even the most experienced professionals fall into when crafting their CVs.

We've all been there - agonising over every word, wondering if we're selling ourselves short or coming across as too boastful. But what if the secret to a standout CV isn't what you think it is?

Join us as we unpack six (sometimes surprising) questions you should be asking yourself about your CV before you submit it.

  • The unexpected truth about CV length (hint: it's not what you think!)
  • How to avoid the trap that's making your CV sound like everyone else's
  • The mindset shift that could transform your CV from good to irresistible
  • Why "hitting the ground running" might not be the selling point you think it is
