Hi everyone, I've just decided to take the plunge and start working for myself. I've worked in learning and development at a senior level for nearly 20 years and finally decided to try and branch out on my own. I know it will be hard work and unpredictable but if you have any advice, I'd love to hear it. I've set up a website and am trying to engage with businesses. I am also considering offering free career choices workshops in local communities. I want to have a mixture of professional business consultancy and also to be able to give back and offer community/individual support where possible. Do you think this would be of interest for people? I need to try and get businesses more familiar with what I am offering but know from experience that cold calling doesn't prove very effective so any suggestions of other ways of promoting my business would be really helpful. Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer.Tracy

Hi, here's a few tips... First impressions – walk in confidently, look at the panel and smile. You will be directed to your seat and probably be introduced to each panel member. Sit in a relaxed position and don’t fidget! Evidence – the panel will probably be looking for the following evidence: •Your past experience and achievements – this will be the bulk of the interview and its important to have thought about key examples you want to use •Your personal attributes and behaviours – both your behaviour in the interview and evidence you provide from past experience •Your future potential and aspirations – reasons for wanting this role and your expectations for future progression Questions – the panel will probably ask questions which are designed to give you the opportunity to show you are the right person for this role. Questions will answer the following broad headings: •Can you do the job? (your knowledge, skills, abilities and experience relevant to the job in question) •Will you do the job? (what motivates you and interests you about the job) •Will you fit in? (to the organisation, its culture and the specific team you will be joining)

Phil, could you give an indication of your prices please? Thank you
