Michelle helped me get back into work after a break in my career. I became extremely frustrated that the letter of application I had used before didn't seem to be working. I couldn't even get interview offers.
I worked with Michelle to identify my strengths and skills and what I would need for the application process in my chosen field. After our first chat, she identified ways I could improve my application both in content and structure. The resulting letter read beautifully and really sold my skills better than I had been doing. The very first application using my new letter resulted in an interview and a new job! I can't thank her or recommend her services enough.

Working with Michelle to improve my confidence, practice my interview technique and develop my CV and letter of application helped me to get the job role which I couldn't have got without this support from Own Futures.

Michelle at Own Futures is superb. Her work is thorough and detailed. I have two young children and finding the time to write job applications is really challenging. Michelle has written several covering letters and CVs for me over the last few months and always asks lots of questions to tailor everyone to individual skills you have and what is specifically asked for in the job description. I have had interviews and job offers based on applications Michelle has assisted me with. Her prices are extremely competitive and is very responsive to questions and requests. I would use Michelle again in a heartbeat for any future applications.

After working as an administrative assistant in the NHS for over twelve years I decided that a change in career was needed. Once I had decided on the type of job I was interested in I asked Michelle to advise and help with application forms and personal statements. Michelle discussed with me my previous experience and qualifications and used these to tailor my application to the job description and specifications.
I was invited to two interviews, which Michelle worked with me to prepare for, using her knowledge and skills she gave me the tools to feel confident and prepared to the best of my ability. I was offered a new position and was given feedback that my interview was very professional and it was clear I had made sure I knew all the relevant information I needed.
I would highly recommend Michelle and Own Futures to anyone thinking of a change in career or simply to help with interview preparation or CV updating.

Michelle made it really easy to figure out what my skills were with the questions she asked and I realised I probably have a lot more than I realised. My CV now fits nicely onto one page and it's not overwhelming when I apply for jobs now.
