I have supported 100+ job seekers in securing interview opportunities by identifying suitable roles, strengthening their applications, and focusing on quality applications rather than simply applying everywhere. ### Here’s How I Can Help **✔ Job Application Support** I search LinkedIn, Indeed, company career pages, and other job boards for relevant opportunities, assist with applications, tailor application materials, and maintain an organized tracking sheet. **✔ Reverse Recruiting** I identify roles that align with your resume, career objectives, preferred location, salary expectations, industry, and level of experience. **✔ ATS Resume Optimization** I refine your resume to improve ATS compatibility through relevant keywords, professional formatting, achievement-focused bullet points, and recruiter-friendly language. **✔ Tailored Cover Letters** I create customized cover letters based on each job description, emphasizing the skills, experience, and achievements most relevant to the position. **✔ LinkedIn Profile Optimization** I enhance your LinkedIn headline, About section, experience, and keywords to position your profile more effectively and make your professional value clearer to recruiters. **✔ Job Search Tracking** I keep your applications organized by recording job titles, companies, links, application dates, statuses, and follow-up actions in an easy-to-manage tracking system. ### Who This Service Is For • Busy professionals who don't have time to apply consistently • Job seekers struggling to generate enough interview opportunities • Career changers who need help repositioning their experience • Mid-level professionals and executives pursuing better opportunities • Remote job seekers applying across multiple platforms • International applicants who want a structured and consistent job search ### Why Work With Me? ✔ Experience supporting 100+ job seekers with their job searches ✔ Strategic applications focused on suitable opportunities ✔ Strong understanding of ATS and recruiter screening processes ✔ Applications tailored to individual job requirements ✔ Organized tracking and follow-up throughout the search ✔ Clear communication and reliable delivery Send me your resume and details of the roles you're targeting, and I'll help you develop a more focused and effective job search strategy.

Your CV shouldn’t simply tell employers what you’ve done. It should make a compelling case for why they should consider you. I help professionals turn their experience into clear, targeted and persuasive career documents that position them for the roles they want. My work includes CVs and resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles and tailored job applications. What makes my approach different is that I don’t treat a CV as a document that simply needs to be “rewritten.” I look at the role you are targeting, what the employer is looking for, the experience you bring, and how that experience can be positioned to make your application stronger. I’ve built an audience of 8,000+ professionals on LinkedIn and 9,000+ on TikTok by creating practical content around CVs, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles and job searching. My LinkedIn content has generated 3M+ impressions. Building these platforms has also given me a valuable perspective into the realities of today’s job market. I regularly hear from professionals across different countries, industries and career stages about the challenges they face, from struggling to communicate their experience to repeatedly applying for jobs without getting the response they expect. Creating career-focused content also requires continuous research. I spend a significant amount of time studying job descriptions, recruitment practices, employer expectations and how professionals can better position themselves in a competitive job market. I bring these insights directly into my client work. I’ve worked with professionals across multiple sectors and career levels, including senior professionals and executives. Whether you are pursuing a new opportunity, changing careers, applying internationally or targeting a more senior role, I focus on making your experience relevant to the opportunity in front of you. I can help you with: • CV and resume writing and rewriting • Targeted CVs for specific roles • Executive and senior-level CVs • Cover letters • LinkedIn profile optimisation • Job application support • Career document reviews • Personal branding and professional positioning My goal is simple: to help you present your experience clearly, confidently and strategically so that your application gives employers a reason to keep reading. If you already have a CV, I can strengthen what you have. If you’re starting from scratch, I can build your documents around the career direction you’re pursuing.

I dig into the problem first, through research, customer conversations, and close collaboration, then design solutions that are both beautiful and functional. I care about outcomes, not just deliverables. Core expertise: ▸ End-to-end SaaS product design (research → wireframes → high-fidelity UI) ▸ Design systems & component libraries in Figma ▸ User research & customer discovery ▸ Landing page design & conversion optimization ▸ B2B and compliance-focused products ▸ Onboarding & user activation flows ▸ Async, remote collaboration across time zones Industry experience: ✓ Accreditation & compliance platforms ✓ Continuing education SaaS ✓ Tax preparation software ✓ Regulated industry B2B products I can help you: ✓ Design a new product or feature from scratch ✓ Improve an existing flow or redesign a confusing UX ✓ Build or extend a Figma design system ✓ Create a landing page that converts ✓ Run user research to validate your direction ✓ Polish your MVP before launch I'm available for focused weekend and part-time engagements, so if you need a senior designer who can hit the ground running without a long ramp-up, let's talk.
