The most effective CV you'll ever write. The best interview you'll
ever give. This revolution in the way we sell ourselves in CV and
at interview is based on the Elevator Pitch concept and has now
been endorsed and recommended by over 40 of the world's leading
business schools and universities, from Kellogg to Columbia in the
US, from Insead to London Business School in Europe and from Otago
to Sydney in Asia-Pacific. The Elevator Pitch prioritises who you
are and how you work, the qualities that you are employed for,
rather than what you did and where you worked, your past, which is
the emphasis of a traditional CV. The Elevator Pitch shifts the
focus from your perspective to the employer's perspective and from
the past to the future. It's a way of presenting yourself that
makes more sense to the employer, and allows you to sell yourself
more effectively. It's a way of writing a CV and preparing for
interview that will vastly increase your chances of getting the
job. Employers now are focused very much on competencies as a way
of deciding who to employ. This is the book that shows you have to
bring your competencies to the forefront. In a time when there are
far more graduates than top class graduate jobs, standing out from
the crowd is vital. This is the book to show you how. The second
edition incorporates feedback from the authors' global seminar and
lecture program, meetings with careers advisors at these
institutions as well as helping hundreds of people create their job
winning CVs.
