Welcome to The Career Practice online courses

Since 2010, The Career Practice has been working with Monster’s clients to help them improve their effectiveness in job searching. Everyone we have helped has landed a new job.
 
We have helped hundreds of people overcome the frustrations that are so common when searching for a new position. Our courses will speed up your search and make you the recruiters preferred candidate. Quite simply, we know how to do it and can teach you how to do it.
 
Any book or information about the job market will tell you that only 10% of jobs get advertised and only 10% of jobs are handled by recruitment companies. We show you how to unlock the 80% of jobs that aren't advertised (the unadvertised market).
 
Our online courses give you the edge in your job search and make sure you beat your competition. 
​"It has made a really big difference to how I regard myself and has helped me build up my self-awareness and confidence." Mark in Southampton
Our courses show you how to be found by employers and get to the hiring managers.

Our Courses

Why You? Your Personal Brand

This course helps you to become the preferred candidate for recruitment agencies, impress decision makers at interview and speed up your journey to a new job.

To be successful in your career and job search, you must be able to understand and communicate your ‘value’ to an employer. Understanding why people will want to employ you and how to quickly and effectively communicate your worth to a company is essential to win the best jobs.

In this course, we guide you through the process of developing your own Personal Brand in plain language and simple steps. We teach you how to establish your worth to a company or organisation and how to communicate that worth to the right people - the decision makers.

We help you define what you have to offer, where your skills and achievements are best suited and help you untangle your choices when you come to a ‘career crossroad’.

Job searching is, in effect, a process of selling yourself. You will learn what you are selling and who to sell it to. We show you how to encourage companies to invest in your skills.

The skills learned in this course will help ensure your continued income and avoid periods of unemployment, effectively becoming immune to the effect of redundancy.
​
Remember, it's the best candidates that get the jobs, not necessarily the best performers.
This course will help you to:

1   Understand what a personal brand is and why it is important to you and employers
2   Understand why ‘cultural fit’ is important
3   Control your image and what people remember about you
4   Develop your own Personal Brand using our step by step approach

Write a Winning CV

This course teaches you how to produce a CV that impresses recruiters and opens doors to more interviews.

Your CV should open doors to interviews. Is your CV getting you the meetings you want? Are you being rejected or ignored for jobs that you know you have the experience and skills to excel in?

In addition to producing a CV that opens new opportunities, this course teaches you to attract decision makers through your online profile. We help you to short-cut the interview process by being found by the decision makers looking for your skills.

Learning to use your CV effectively is as important as the content of your CV. The skills you learn in this course will help you to keep both your CV and online presence attractive and in the front line of those people searching for your skill set.
​

Remember, it's the best candidates that get the jobs not necessarily the best performers.

This course will help you to:

1   Understand the purpose of a CV from all perspectives – yours, an employer, a recruiter and HR
2   Learn how to overcome the sometimes conflicting needs on the purpose of a CV
3   Understand what kind of CV to use and how to apply the 7 rules of what a CV MUST be
4   Avoid the mistakes made by others and develop a CV that impresses not informs
5   Build your own winning CV, following our step by step approach

7   Identify the essential elements and DO NOTs of using social media to use it to your advantage

​Take control of your career and enjoy success... these people did

"Seems corny but The Career Practice teaching has changed me forever. For the first time I invested in myself and my career and I struck Gold."

"I was working as a deputy facilities manager at a large bank and I kept looking at people above me on the careers ladder, thinking, I could do their job, and be better at it, but I just didn’t know how to make it happen!! The Career Practice helped my feel, for the first time, that I could actually do whatever I wanted to do, I just needed to get my story sorted out and put myself in front of the right people."

"The straight talking approach of the Career Practice is refreshing and enlightening."

"By the time I found The Career Practice, I was in a place where most people find themselves after looking for a new job for some time. I was frustrated with the job market and recruiters who over promised and under delivered every time. I started to dumb down my searches and was willing to take anything to move from my current position, which could have been career suicide. The Career Practice made me think and behave differently. I invested in a programme that combined both their personal courses and one to one coaching. Within a month I had
3 great offers in front of me.​"

I had always had a very successful career until my company restructured. I moved sideways in my career and never seemed able to get back to my earlier successes. Due to the diversity in my skill sets I found that I was difficult to market, future employers and agencies didn’t really know what to do with me. The Career Practice helped get me back on track.

"Ask yourself what you really want to do and where you want to be then call the guys at The Career Practice and make it happen."
