First impressions are therefore critical to success, so this week we’re talking about simple and effective ways that you can make your CV stand out from the crowd and make it to the interview stage. We’re not leaving you there though. This week’s podcast shares tips on how to smash an interview and land that job too.

Its been estimated that women’s jobs are 1.8 times more vulnerable in this crisis than men’s jobs in the pandemic whilst the digital skills gap is accelerating. Salesforce alone estimate that they will create 9.3m jobs by 2026 and we need to think about how to fill them.
