CV Writing, LinkedIn & Career Coaching for Students and Graduates

CV Writing, LinkedIn & Career Coaching for Students and Graduates

A degree gets you considered. A well-built CV gets you interviewed. We work one-to-one with students and recent graduates on CVs, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, placement and internship applications, and interview preparation, starting at £60. Sessions are live, feedback is written and specific, and everything is tailored to the industry you are actually applying into — because a graduate finance CV and a graduate nursing CV should look nothing alike.

Why most graduate CVs get rejected

Large graduate employers receive tens of thousands of applications a cycle, and the great majority of CVs are screened automatically or read in well under a minute. Four failures account for most rejections.

Duties instead of achievements. "Responsible for handling customer queries" describes a job description. "Handled 60+ customer queries per shift with the highest satisfaction score on the team" describes you. Numbers are what turn a duty into evidence.

No keyword match. Applicant tracking systems rank CVs against the job description. If the advert says "stakeholder management" and your CV says "dealing with clients", a machine may never surface you to a human. Mirror the advert's language where it is honestly true of you.

Generic and unfocused. One CV sent to fifty employers performs worse than five CVs tailored to five sectors. The tailoring does not need to be total — a rewritten personal profile and a reordered skills section is usually enough.

Burying the relevant material. Graduate CVs often open with education in date order and hide the relevant placement on page two. Recruiters rarely reach page two.

UK, US and Australian conventions differ

International students routinely lose interviews to formatting conventions nobody told them about. A UK CV is typically two pages, carries no photograph, no date of birth, no marital status and no nationality, and ends with "references available on request" or nothing at all. A US resume is usually one page for early-career candidates, never includes a photograph, and avoids personal details entirely for legal reasons. An Australian CV can run longer, often two to three pages, and commonly includes named referees.

Sending a European-style CV with a photograph and a date of birth to a UK graduate scheme does not just look unusual — some employers discard it to avoid discrimination risk. Getting this right costs nothing and removes an invisible barrier.

The STAR method, properly

Competency questions and application forms ask you to evidence behaviours. STAR — Situation, Task, Action, Result — is the standard structure, and most candidates use it badly by spending 80% of the answer on the situation. The proportions should be roughly the reverse: a sentence of situation, a sentence of task, the bulk on the specific actions you personally took, and a quantified result at the end. We drill this until it becomes automatic, because the same structure serves application forms, interviews and assessment centres.

How Coaching Works, Plus CV Tips and Resources

How Career Coaching Works With Us

  1. Free 20-minute consultation. Send your current CV and a job advert you are targeting. We tell you honestly what is holding it back.
  2. Diagnostic review. Written, line-level feedback on your CV against the specific roles you want, including ATS keyword gaps.
  3. Live rebuild session. We work through the rewrite together so you learn the method, rather than receiving a document you cannot adapt later.
  4. LinkedIn pass. Headline, About and experience entries rewritten for recruiter search, with guidance on which skills to list.
  5. Interview practice. A mock interview using real questions from your sector, with recorded feedback and STAR coaching.
  6. Follow-up. A final review once you have tailored the CV to a live application.

Ten tips for a stronger graduate CV

  1. Lead with a four-line profile naming the role you want, your degree, and two concrete strengths — rewritten for each sector.
  2. Quantify everything you can. Numbers, percentages, headcounts, timeframes, budgets. Even retail and hospitality work has numbers.
  3. Use the advert's vocabulary where it is genuinely true of you. This is keyword alignment, not dishonesty.
  4. Put the relevant thing first. If a placement matters more than your final-year modules, it goes higher.
  5. Cut the school section once you have a degree, beyond a single line of grades.
  6. Two pages maximum for the UK, one for the US. Nobody reads page three.
  7. Name the technical skills explicitly — SPSS, Excel, Python, SQL, NVivo, CAD. These are frequently searched.
  8. Include part-time work. It evidences reliability, teamwork and customer handling. Frame it with achievements.
  9. Export as PDF unless the employer asks otherwise, and name the file with your own name and the role.
  10. Proofread it twice, then have somebody else read it. A single typo is still the most common reason a strong CV is discarded.

Five useful (and free) career resources

  1. Your university careers service. Free for current students and usually for several years after graduation. Includes CV clinics, employer events and often alumni mentoring.
  2. Prospects.ac.uk — the UK's main graduate careers site, with sector guides, salary data and job profiles that explain what roles actually involve.
  3. The National Careers Service skills assessment — free, government-run, and genuinely useful if you are undecided about direction.
  4. LinkedIn's own job-alert and "skills match" tools — set alerts for the exact titles you want and read the required-skills lists to find your gaps.
  5. Glassdoor and employer graduate-scheme pages — for real interview questions and assessment-centre formats posted by previous candidates.
