❓ If you removed your job titles from your CV, would your impact still be obvious?
🎺 I am often asked what would my one piece of advice be to a someone who is job seeking….thought about that one! Here is the answer:
📢 Proving impact, not listing experience
✅ Loads of candidates have CV’s that show that you “have done the job”…but the employer wants to know what did you do for the organisation you have worked for!
✅You need to showcase clear, credible evidence of the value you have created for the organisation.
💡 How do I do this?
✅Key Achievements – List all the key achievements you have accomplished in your role, show outcomes not duties.
💡 For example:
“Improved customer retention by 18%” rather than “Responsible for customer accounts”
✅Try to translate experience into business language (cost, risk, efficiency, growth, people outcomes)
✅Demonstrating adaptability: how you’ve responded to change, uncertainty, new systems, or new expectations
❓ Why this matters so much in 2026.
💡AI can now replicate skills — it cannot replicate judgement, influence, and results.
✅A simple self-check for candidates
❓ If you removed your job titles from your CV, would your impact still be obvious?
✅If not, that’s the gap to work on.
