That includes helping someone get a job with Sky News through interview advice, guiding someone to a role with Harrods with application and interview help and assisting a graduate find their first role in media after more than six months of applying. We have also helped someone move from a career outside media into a dream role with the BBC. Just a few of our recent successes. Our mentoring has tangible benefits and provides emotional and practical support. Contact us to find out more.

"During our first session, David gave me purpose and confidence, as well as guidance on how to really improve my CV. Since then, he has been a constant source of fantastic advice, helping me prepare for interviews and always generous with his time. He has been a huge help over a long period of time, helping me to make the career move I wanted. I could not recommend him more and I will continue to lean on him as a sounding board as my career progresses."

“David’s services were superb. Breaking into the news media can be an extremely difficult and frustrating experience. The industry is opaque and you often have no idea if you’re making progress or even heading in the right direction when it comes to trying to find a job. David can clear all that up for you, tell you what matters, what employers are looking for, and what you need to work on. He’s committed and is able to be honest in a constructive way. If you need advice on the next step of your career, I thoroughly recommend getting in touch with David.”
"Thanks so much for our meeting and review of my career and CV. I have been feeling frustrated about things but left our meeting with a spring in my step and will take that into my applications from now on. My confidence has been boosted."

I am beyond thankful for his direct, non patronising approach and advice."

His CV guidance was invaluable, and I have since been complimented several times by employers about my CV and its structure.
