About the session

In her previous consulting role, Emily was a hiring manager and worked to upskill a variety of test engineers. She noticed a common theme in CVs; lots sound scarily similar and didn't fully convey a persons skillset. In this interactive session, Emily went through her technique to create a CV that shows employers your unique skills and contribution to their business.
