Employability support – a professional's perspective to boost my CV and LinkedIn

Personalised support

Last week, I had the chance to take part in a module offered by Excelia's Talent Centre: Tremplin Alternance. A key moment in my search for a work-study placement, where I was able to revisit the essential points of my approach: from defining my project to preparing for interviews, via the search for opportunities. Although I was already well informed, I discovered concrete, practical tips to go further.

But what really made the difference? The final interview with a professional from the sector. I had the privilege of talking with Aurélie Hervet, an expert who took the time to understand my objectives and challenges. Thanks to her outside, supportive perspective, I was able to get valuable feedback on my CV and my LinkedIn profile.

Putting it into practice

The key points that came out of it:

• My approach is well oriented, I just need the right opportunity
• My energy and my passion are strengths, but they weren't visible enough in my materials

On her advice, I reworked my CV and my LinkedIn profile so that they fully reflect my personality and my enthusiasm.

Thanks to this support, I am now ready to face new opportunities… and who knows, perhaps this optimisation will open the doors of companies that match my aspirations!

It was in this context that he took a Talent Centre module devoted to the search for a work-study placement, concluded by an interview with a professional from the sector. This one-to-one support is part of a wider approach, since the Talent Centre's support follows students throughout their studies: from the CV to the LinkedIn profile, via the pitch, interviews, internships and work-study at Excelia Business School, so that they arrive prepared to face recruiters.
