CV Style
Welcome to CV Style's website (and virtual brochure). We are a New Zealand company with offices in Auckland CBD. With today's competitive job market, it is even more important that one creates a CV/résumé/curriculum vitae which will articulate what your distinctions are from other people. What is your X factor? And how can you put that X factor into your CV. We do not offer a templated online service which tends to equalise you with everyone else, but rather our consultations are face to face. This allows that necessary dialogue which is so critical to ensure that we can project you in the best possible way and with the most potential for your capabilities and abilities.

Alice in Wonderland's Career Advice


Here is a sample for my high school students from the comic series "Blue Gothic", about a 15 year old school girl and her troubles, angst and issues that she goes through in life. This particular one is on facing career choices and the use of a mind map to establish various directions that may be taken ... the problem for "Blue Gothic" is deciding what one to choose. This is so often the plight of young people today --- having too many options, it's a minefield.

To understand how better to choose an option you can book in to see myself for career counselling, one tool we would look at using is the Strong's Interest Inventory. This tool can produce amazing results!
