Delighted to receive this lovely review from a 5th year student who took the initiative to start planning their career path before heading into 6th year.

Starting early can really help reduce some of the stress and pressure that comes with exam year. Having a clearer goal to work towards, understanding course options, and feeling more confident about future choices can make such a difference.

“Liz really helped me understand how CAO courses work and to be more confident in picking a career path in only 2 sessions. I would really recommend her to anyone who is in any way confused about career paths or courses.”

It is always a privilege to support students as they begin to explore their options and take positive steps towards their future.

CV Top Tips for Teens Looking for Summer Jobs

Is your teenager thinking about applying for a summer job?

I’ve put together a quick video guide to help them create a clear, simple and professional CV that employers can scan quickly.

In the video, I cover what to include in a first CV, such as:

✅ Personal details
✅ A short personal profile
✅ Education and relevant subjects
✅ Work experience
✅ Achievements
✅ Interests
✅ References, with permission first
✅ Proofreading, spell-checking and saving the CV as a PDF

A CV does not need to be complicated. For teenagers, the key is to keep it clear, honest and easy to read.

A CV is first impressions — so make it a good one.
