Sell Your Competences and Get the Job! (English)


Event Description

We all have a lot of competences, but do you know how to express yours in words? Can you visualise them and use them to 'sell yourself'?

Awareness of your competences is a question of practice. Once you know the best things you have to offer you can communicate them convincingly to potential employers in your CV, cover letter and job interviews.

Topics covered:

  • Uncovering your personal and professional competences
  • Increasing awareness of what motivates you
  • Ideas for how to sell your competences in response to a specific job ad
  • Practicing conveying your competences in CV, cover letter and job interview

Workshop outcome:

  • Increased awareness of your personal strengths and competences
  • Practical experience with articulating your competences so the receiver can easily understand what you have to offer
  • Knowledge of how to use your competences to tell a story about you that makes you stand out from the crowd and secure the job you want.

Preparation:

Please make sure to bring your CV and a job ad that's relevant to your job search.

Target group:

The workshop is for students who want to be better to express their competences in words.

Speaker:

The workshop is presented by Career Consultant Anette M. Pierce from CA Career Development and Unemployment Insurance.

We look forward to seeing you!
