Soft‑Skill & Employability Vault for UK Tech Careers
Technical skills get you shortlisted; soft skills get you hired. This vault packs UK‑specific advice on CV design, interview prep, remote‑work etiquette and LinkedIn branding so you can present the full package to employers.
CV Optimisation
Use action verbs ("implemented", "streamlined"), quantify achievements ("cut incident resolution time by 25 %") and mirror job‑description keywords to beat ATS filters. Keep to two pages and open with a punchy summary + certifications.
Interview Question Banks
Practise behavioural STAR answers and technical scenarios for IT, cyber and PM roles. Example: *"Describe a time you solved a high‑severity ticket under pressure."* Our bank includes model responses and follow‑up probes.
Remote‑Work Etiquette
Set clear SLAs for response time, master asynchronous tools (Teams, Slack, Loom) and rotate breaks to avoid video‑call fatigue. Demonstrating remote professionalism widens your job market beyond your postcode.
LinkedIn Branding
Craft a headline like "Junior Cyber‑Security Analyst | CompTIA Security+ | SC‑200 Student". Post weekly insights—course progress, lab screenshots or industry news—to trigger recruiter searches and keep your network warm.
