1. CV Review

The CV is your shop window and you have one chance to make the best first impression. Investing time to optimise your CV is vital to securing your next job in the business travel industry. We will critique your CV to ensure that the content accurately captures your qualifications, business travel experience and skills and ultimately reflects not only your competency for a specific job but also your personality.

2. Exploratory Meeting

We need to understand your business travel experience, technical competencies, achievements, salary expectations, ideal next job, career path and aspirations. We offer career advice if you are looking to change jobs or have longer-term goals. We need to get to know you, and you us. Without this relationship, we won’t have the mutual trust and confidence in each other.

Interview preparation depends on the type of job and the predicted interview format. We provide coaching to ensure you are aware of the expected interview techniques and questions but also relevant company information, such as products, culture, team members etc. We support you throughout this process including presentation preparation and will get you as prepared as you can be to give you the best chance of success to secure the job.

5. Offer

Group 2574@2x

Our philosophy is always to be honest and upfront. We understand your package expectations and our client’s budget. We share this with you including the finer details of the benefits package, notice period, probationary period, salary review, to avoid any misunderstandings later in the recruitment process. Transparency and clear expectations by both parties is the best positive start and our role as the recruitment company is to act as the broker.
