The Resume Host Part of the CAQA group

Resumes and applications

A resume is a claim. It has to survive the interview.

Resumes, selection criteria and applications written so that everything on the page can be defended in the room.

IWhat we do

Three things, done properly.

i

Resumes

Written so every claim can be defended in the interview it produces.

ii

Selection criteria

Public sector and structured applications, answered in the form they are actually assessed in.

iii

Interview preparation

Turning what is on the page into what you can say out loud.

IIWhat goes wrong

The two failures we see most.

We publish these because most of the value in hiring anyone is knowing which mistakes are common, and that knowledge is not worth hiding.

Claims that collapse

An inflated resume produces interviews you then fail. It is worse than a modest one that produces fewer.

The same document everywhere

A resume not adapted to the role is screened out by both the software and the human.

IIIHow we work

We tell you what we find.

Including when the answer is that you do not need what you came to ask for. Anyone who never says that is not giving you information, they are giving you an invoice.

Scope

Where something needs a legal opinion, a financial audit or a clinical judgement, we will say so and stop rather than improvise past the edge of what we do.

Start a conversation.

Tell us the situation rather than the service you think you need. We would rather start from your problem.
