I’m Judith Poulteney, career coach and adviser.
As a qualified and experienced career coach and adviser, I have been supporting clients in Staffordshire, Shropshire, Cheshire and beyond since I set up the business in 2010.
By providing a range of bespoke services, I will help you to secure the next stage of your career by ensuring you present yourself as effectively as possible – from working with you on your personal statement, CV or covering letter, to developing your interview technique and presentation skills. I also offer one-to-one career coaching sessions and careers advice to facilitate your career decision-making, particularly helpful if you are newly qualified, looking for a change, returning to work after a career break, or following redundancy.
I am delighted to say that I have many happy and successful clients!
Please visit my Services page for more details or contact me. We can meet in person, Skype, Facetime or speak on the phone.
“Upon application to Ryanair, Judith’s sound CV advice helped me get an interview very shortly after graduation from Oxford. Consequently, based on my CV experience with her, I was very keen to use her services for my interview prep”.
“After a few attempts, and making the changes that Judith suggested each time, I had a statement with the necessary information and which also showed my understanding and enthusiasm for the subject. I have received conditional offers from three universities…”
“I was really pleased with my final personal statement and it helped me get interviews at all five of my uni choices. I am now studying Theatre, Performance and Event Design at Birmingham City University…”
“Judith’s attention to detail to ensure that the CV was presented to a high standard has resulted in a more concise but informative document which I am delighted with.”
“I found Judith’s feedback constructive and responsive. Judith also helped me prepare for interviews. By giving me example questions and improving interview technique, I felt well prepared, which made me much more confident. This especially paid dividends in my first interview at Oxford. “
“Judith did some practice interviews which helped me to prepare and built up my confidence. We identified a number of good examples of things I had done in the past which I could use to demonstrate leadership and this really improved my performance.”
“I found the prospect of writing a personal statement very daunting. Judith and I worked together by email and phone and after a short time I had a strong personal statement. Shortly after, I received conditional offers from my two top choices…”
“As I had not been on an assessment day before, I spent time with Judith discussing what sorts of things I might be doing. This helped my understanding and I felt more confident when the day came. I am pleased to say that all went well and I received a conditional offer.”
“Judith helped me to improve my UCAS statement and gave me some very useful interview practice, with astute and insightful feedback. The use of video recording in these sessions was an excellent idea, enabling me to see for myself how I was performing and what I needed to work on. I am now studying Veterinary Medicine at Nottingham.”
“Judith was excellent at identifying my skills and picking out the ones that were most relevant. Her advice subsequently led to an interview. An additional meeting was arranged to go over interview tips and techniques. I was offered the job and started two weeks ago.”
“I approached Judith to revitalise my resumé and to practise my interview techniques. A month later, I successfully concluded discussions with a company I had been targeting for some time and was made an offer. I am still enjoying their employment. Simple, with Judith on your side.”
