Compare target-role requirements with your capabilities, build a tailored CV and evidence profile, and rehearse interview responses. Use task and communication exercises to demonstrate reliability and contribution.
During the programme
- A target-role shortlist and comparison of requirements with your capabilities.
- A tailored CV, evidence profile or work sample, and practised interview responses.
- A 90-day job-search plan and application tracker.
Over the next 90 days
- An updated application portfolio with applications, responses, interview feedback and revisions.
- A review of your job search and any employment result.
What successful practice looks like
Explain why a role fits, tailor an application with truthful evidence and rehearse relevant interview answers. Over 90 days, record applications and feedback and show how you revised your approach. Employment is a result to pursue, not a completion requirement.
Share attempts, feedback and revisions through WhatsApp support. Completion is based on demonstrated skills, application and honest review. Jobs, paid assignments, increased sales and profit are results to pursue, not guaranteed completion conditions.

Explore an exercise and its review questions
The Application Match: draft a CV for one target role; a peer checks each claim against the evidence profile.
Feedback and review: Remove vague claims, check accuracy and identify missing evidence.
What you revise or apply: Tailor the next application to its job description.
Inspect a worked example: Match an application to a role
Illustrative teaching example. This is fictional, not a participant submission, facilitator feedback record or evidence of results.
- Starting draft
- I am hardworking and a good communicator.
- Review question
- What does this role require, and which example shows you can do it?
- More specific version
- For a role requiring customer follow-up, describe how I tracked enquiries during a student event and handed unresolved requests to the organiser. Tailor the CV, practise explaining the example and record the application response.
Try it: write your own starting statement, answer the review question and choose one action you can check afterwards.
