CV Preparation

- Are you finding it difficult to identify what information should be included in your CV?

Your CV is an extremely important document, it is your first opportunity to impress a prospective employer.

CV's are screened very quickly with perhaps each CV being reviewed for no more than 20 seconds. In that short space of time your CV has to make a strong impression if you are to reach interview stage. Therefore, it is important that the information you provide in your CV is of interest to the employer and that your experience, key skills and abilities are presented clearly and articulately.

We will conduct a “fact find” to determine your career objectives, skills and qualities. This process can be facilitated face to face or via telephone or e-mail and provides you with an opportunity to discuss and reflect on your career in depth – an activity which will help you to respond more positively during job interviews and create a better impression.

The information gathered is then used to produce a CV that presents your skills, achievements and experience positively, clearly and accurately. To ensure that your CV attracts the attention of the many employers who are now using on-line databases to source candidates we include the most relevant keywords in your CV.

Job interviews are demanding, competitive situations which most people find difficult. Many individuals under perform at interviews because they are nervous, inexperienced or simply not prepared. Preparation is the key to success at interviews. We will work with you to develop your confidence and ensure that you are properly prepared for the interview.

We will put you through a focused practice interview session. The interview coaching session is tailored to focus on the position you are applying for and the key competencies (knowledge, skills and attributes) required to be successful in the role such as customer focus, team work, leadership skills etc.

At the end of the interview session you will be given an opportunity to discuss any questions you feel may cause difficulty and you will be given advice on formulating effective responses.

Career Coaching / Career Advice

- Are you unsure how to find the right career for you?

- Are you unhappy or not fulfilled in your current job role?

Whether you are starting out in the word of work or considering a career change, deciding which career is right for you can be a very difficult decision as the decisions you make can have an impact on the career avenues which open up for you both in the short and long term.

Unfortunately, many people are not fully aware of the broad range of career options which exist and have no idea where to begin when it comes to choosing the right career for them.

At Hynes Employment Consulting we deal with individuals making these kinds of career decisions every day. We provide a one to one Career Coaching service to assist you with this life changing decision.

The first career coaching session consists of an informal interview at which we will discuss your background, education, work experience, interests and abilities. At the first session we will also get you to complete a career inventory questionnaire which will help inform your career decisions and will provide you with a valuable insight into your personality and strengths and also identify possible areas for development. At the second session you will be given feedback in respect of the questionnaire and potential career options will be identified and discussed. The third session will be focused on developing a plan of action.

- What are the benefits of Career Coaching?

Identify potential career paths that perhaps you would never have previously considered.
Understand what motivates you.
Identify skills and strengths and areas for personal development.
Achieve greater fulfilment from your work.
