Got a solid working history from military to engineering but I found my strongest attribute is my customer connections wherever I work. Hoping to move into sales where I can really unleash my communication and personal skills with colleagues and customers alike.

Hi Iain, thanks for your question!
You sound like you have some fantastic experience. We would really recommend making sure that your application really highlights your strong areas. Have a look at the job specification and really tailor your CV to what the role is looking for. Showing you understand the role and the requirements - as well as showing how your skills and experience relate is something that will really help.

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately I have sent my cv in already but I am confident that it reflects me and hopefully I will get an opportunity to demonstrate my capabilities.
