Here to listen and help you move forward

At Jobshop, we want you to feel that you have been properly listened to and treated as an individual. You might be ready for your next permanent role, interested in contract work or looking for a temporary assignment while you decide what comes next.

We will take time to understand your experience, what you enjoy, what you are good at and what you would like to do less of. We also want to know what matters to you: the way you like to be managed, the environment in which you work best, your values, motivations and aspirations.

A CV can tell us where you have worked, but it cannot tell us everything you could bring to a role. We are interested in your potential, transferable skills and experience, including the things you may have learned outside a conventional career path or qualification.

We can speak by telephone, video or face to face. We will be honest about the opportunities we have, help you understand the role and organisation, and support you through the process.

YourTransferable Skills

What are they? These are skills or abilities you have picked up over time either from previous jobs, hobbies, school or in your social life.

The most common ones that are employers are looking for are (depending on the role):

• Problem solving and critical thinking
• Working on your own initiative
• Leadership
• Team work
• Communication skills
• Customer service skills
• Flexibility/Adaptability and self motivation
• Attention to detail
• Listening
• Creativity
• Relationship building

These are soft skills and are often the most important as technical skills can be taught. It is always worth looking at an advert or job spec to see what soft skills are required and include these in your personal profile on your CV as well as having examples ready to offer at interview stage.

Transferable skills are also really important to highlight if you are looking to change your career.

 

Examples of transferable skills:

If you work within hospitality you are likely to have the ability to deal with customers face to face and think on your feet (especially if there is a problem that needs dealing with). That is a transferable skill that could be used in almost any other industry.  

If you can see that there is some work that someone else needs helping with, offering to assist them shows initiative and flexability.

Ensuring that work is checked for factual accuracy, spelling, grammar etc shows great attention to detail.

The ability to speak confidently over the phone, articulate well in person and in writing, demonstrates good communication skills.
