  • @Samantha Davies Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. I've read through the article you linked to (especially the advice to make sure the language and substance reflect you authentically). This outline is a great start, thank you!
  • Hi Lily, a few tips here for you

    - Refresh your CV, some tips here: https://www.theguardian.com/money/shortcuts/2020/jan/08/ten-tips-on-how-to-write-the-perfect-cv
    - Make a list of companies that you'd love to work for and set up job alerts on their website
    - Make a list of job boards/websites that advertise for the type of role you want, check and apply daily
    - Utilise LinkedIn - not just for job searching, but to connect with people in your industry. It's also a good way to look at people's career path, and how they got to where they are

    I hope this helps in some way, my best tip is to treat job hunting like an actual job - have a plan, structure and daily routine :)
