CV HELP

CV ASSISTANCE NEEDED
A bit of a long shot, but is there anyone on Reddit who happens to be a professional CV writer? I could really use the help! 😭🤣

Do you keep going after leads that don’t have a habit of working with external recruiters/agencies?

Are you still pursuing leads that typically don’t work with external recruiters or agencies?

About a month ago, my company closed, prompting me to take a more independent path in recruitment. As I reach out to new prospects, I’m finding myself in uncharted territory with sales. I’m curious about how to handle a common situation: when a company states they have a policy against working with external recruiters. Should I continue to follow up, or is it best to move on? What strategies do others use in these cases?

Employee referrals

Employee Referrals: A Question on Integrity

What if I were to fabricate an employee referral while applying for a job online? I applied and indicated that I was referred by someone at the company, but the truth is, I just took a name from LinkedIn and provided that info.

Do you think this strategy could actually pay off?

People don’t leave jobs; they leave manager

Employees don’t just leave jobs; they leave managers.

It’s true: regardless of how passionate you are about your work, the connection you have with your manager can greatly influence your experience. A supportive and inspiring manager can transform a challenging role into a rewarding one, fostering your development along the way. On the other hand, a lacking managerial relationship can lead to frustration and dissatisfaction.

So, what qualities define a great manager, and how do they shape our professional lives?

Seeking Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants, and Occupational Therapy Assistants!

I’m currently recruiting for several companies in New Hampshire (for Physical Therapists and Physical Therapist Assistants) and Washington (for Occupational Therapy Assistants) and am having difficulty finding qualified candidates. These positions come with relocation assistance and signing bonuses!

I’ve been utilizing LinkedIn and Indeed, but my efforts have yielded limited results. I’m also exploring Boolean search techniques and various AI recruiting tools to connect with potential talent, but with so many options available, it’s challenging to determine the best fit.

I would appreciate any tips or advice!

Worked for myself – what do I put on the CV?

Independent Entrepreneur – How Should I Present This on My CV?

Hi everyone, I’ve launched a few small businesses and ventures recently. What’s the best way to highlight this experience on my CV?

1. Should I list it as Owner/Operator with a description of my responsibilities?
2. Or would it be better to label it as a specific role with duties outlined?

In these ventures, I wore many hats, but I’m considering using a title that aligns more closely with roles in larger companies. What are your thoughts? Thank you!

Culture within a company can make or break employee retention

Company culture plays a critical role in employee retention. If team members don’t feel safe, supported, and able to thrive at work, it’s a signal that needs immediate attention.

Here are some potential red flags that may indicate a problem with your workplace culture:

1. Extreme pressure to meet targets that negatively impacts well-being.
2. Critical or judgmental behavior that hinders creativity.
3. Socializing initiatives that may not appeal to everyone.
4. Toxic positivity that overlooks genuine issues and feelings.
5. Erosion of privacy that violates personal boundaries.
6. Passive-aggressive behavior that undermines trust and teamwork.

Identifying these warning signs is just the first step—action is essential. Let’s transform these red flags into green flags!

Unfair or wrongful dismissal?

Unfair Dismissal? Seeking Advice

Hi everyone,

I’m currently navigating a challenging situation at work. I’m five months into a six-month probation period at my new job. At the end of my shift on the third day of the new year, I was called into the conference room by my manager, only to be informed that my contract was terminated with immediate effect.

The reason? Despite successfully completing over 30 jobs since my start date—with all tasks finished on time—my dismissal stemmed from one job, which was completed two weeks before Christmas, being labeled as “too slow.”

It’s worth noting that we were never told there was an issue with our speed. In fact, for some tasks, we were instructed to slow down and prioritize safety. Given that the work involves heavy metal press machines and sheet metal, rushing is not only impractical but also poses significant health risks.

I can’t shake the feeling that this decision may be a personal vendetta from a manager known for their aggressive behavior—referred to as “the Hulk” by colleagues—which makes me question the legitimacy of this dismissal.

I’m reaching out to see if anyone thinks this constitutes unfair or wrongful dismissal without notice and whether it’s worth contesting. I would greatly appreciate any advice or insights you might have.

Thank you!
