"I am delighted with the work Jaqui has done. Articulating key messages from a business perspective comes easily to me…. doing it about myself is a different matter entirely. Jaqui really got to grips with the industry I work in and my background and was able to bring out the key elements that make me special and unique, in a way I simply could not do. Jaqui was really easy to work with, very thorough and did a lot of research. I recommended her to a colleague who said that her personality now shines through her CV. It provides such piece of mind to know that my CV is in great shape for when the right opportunity arises."

"I was recently referred to Jaqui to update my CV as I was looking to change my career path. Within an hour of downloading my amazing new CV Jaqui had produced for me I was inundated by phone calls and messages from potential employers stating that they had seen “my excellent” CV online and were keen to speak to me regarding positions they had available. I’m so glad I took the advice and enlisted Jaqui’s expertise she is certainly very good at her job and I would highly recommend her services."

"Jaqui was a tremendous help throughout my interview process. Not only did she help me construct an organised and structured CV. She also aided me with setting up my Linkedin Profile. She gave me a guidance of what I should have and shouldn’t have on my profile. As for my CV she asked in detail about my hobbies and my characteristics. This allowed her to write an accurate CV that I believe represented me well as a person when I was sending it of to employers. Now I am in a role that I enjoy, and I believe that she had a direct input in getting my foot through the door."

"I am a nutritional therapist training to become certified as a Functional Medicine Practitioner. I needed an up to date CV as part of my certification process and instantly thought of Jaqui. She made what seemed like a pretty onerous time consuming task so painless. There was a telephone information gathering session followed by a draft. Several email exchanges and iterations later it was done. She is extremely intuitive and was therefore, able to articulate exactly what I wanted to get across very succinctly. Jaqui also updated my Linked In CV, which has a slightly different tone and even uploaded it to Linked In for me. Jaqui is extremely organised and efficient. I am more than happy with my CVs. I trust Jaqui implicitly and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone wanting a new or updated CV."

"Jaqui was recommended to me by a contact in a networking group and I must say, am very lucky to have found her. It was extremely important to me to work with someone who took the time to understand my requirements, my strengths and how best to promote myself in the fast-changing workplace. Nothing was too much trouble for Jaqui and after numerous telephone conversations and drafts back and forth, I now feel much more confident in my abilities. Armed with my bright, shiny, new CV I am ready to tackle the job market! Thank you Jaqui for your time and patience."

"As I was about to embark on a major career change, I felt that my CV was in need of an upgrade. By her careful and thorough evaluation of my current CV and by skilled questioning and information gathering, Jaqui successfully pulled together, in an amazingly short turnaround time, an excellent CV for me which really highlighted my strengths as well as ensuring that it focussed on exactly what a potential employer would be looking for. I needed a fresh pair of eyes for this job, as well as the benefit of Jaqui’s business and employment expertise to ensure that my CV hit the mark. Jaqui is approachable and flexible with an amazing eye for accuracy and detail. I am delighted with my CV and I would have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending her."

"I had a broad range of experience across a number of roles and sectors, which meant my CV was patchy and lacked flow. I contacted Jaqui who came back to me the same day to discuss my goals and outline the process. Jaqui took the time to understand my career journey to date and future goals, she objectively reviewed all my experience, drilled down to uncover key facts I’d overlooked, pulled out my key achievements and created a cohesive CV that highlights my strengths. I have already recommended Jaqui’s services to friends and colleagues."

"After 30 years of working I suddenly found myself looking for new employment and in urgent need of a CV, a LinkedIn profile and someone to help me identify market sectors that would suit my skills.
Having no real idea on where to start I got in touch with Jaqui, who I knew had loads of experience in this area. Ever willing to assist, she dropped everything and agreed to meet promptly.
After a brief chat to put me at ease, Jaqui began by establishing clear goals – what I wanted to achieve from the exercise and by when. With that sorted we then talked at length about my experiences/achievements. Throughout this stage it was clear that Jaqui had a real talent for drilling into and drawing out the facts that had real relevance to my new employment goals, and that built a compelling story around my career that would makes sense to a potential hirer and maximise my earning potential.
Following this initial interview Jaqui got to work on a first draft of a CV and had that across to me within a week, despite an already heavy workload. The first draft made impressive reading, even drawing out aspects that I had forgotten or set aside and it was this attention to detail that made her work stand out. After a few refinements over the following week I had a great foundation (and the much needed confidence) to go job hunting with vigour.
I’m delighted to say that I found work again, in my ideal job, within 4 months of getting Jaqui’s assistance – in no small part a testament to the quality of her work and guidance.
Throughout the exercise I found Jaqui to be highly supportive, clear-minded and goal focussed and I would have no hesitation in recommending her services to friends or colleagues.”

"I had left the pharmaceutical industry, where I had worked for over 25 years and retrained as a teacher. I had a CV which had been added to over those 25 years and generally patched together. It needed a massive tidy up and realignment to my future role.
I needed someone to help me to objectively pull out the experience that I could realistically apply to teaching, and also the strengths that I had demonstrated – whilst also significantly shortening my CV. Jaqui was very honest and helpful in exploring my past employment history and future aspirations to pull together a much more concise and relevant view. She also has amazing attention to detail, ensuring a really professional looking CV.
I would strongly recommend Jaqui for her objective and honest approach, her attention to detail and her commitment to achieving a CV that represents you and your future career."
