GRB x York University

It was with great pleasure that I was able to personally coach 11 students yesterday on their CVs. After posting a message on our facebook page offering one-to-one CV coaching to any student society at York we were delighted that Daniel (pictured, right) responded. Daniel booked a suitable venue on campus between 10am-4pm and then I coached each student for 30 minutes. I met 11 switched-on students either in their first or second year who realised the importance of getting their CV right now and not leaving it until they graduated!

This is just the start of their journey as we plan to coach them every step of the way right up to job offer when they all graduate in the next few years. It really is vital you make the most of your time at Uni building up your CV with skills and experiences.

GRB now plan to make several more visits in the Autumn to help the nations students get the perfect CV. If you would like us to visit your campus email us at info@grb.uk.com

Dear Dan,

Thank you for running the CV consultation event recently at our university. All of the 11 students who saw you found the session very valuable in improving their CVs as they have not been able to get the kind of guidance you were able to provide before. The students particularly enjoyed how they were able to discuss individual career aspirations with you and that you were able to help them build confidence as well as improve their CVs.

We hope to see you back at York in the future to be able to help even more students. This first event was heavily oversubscribed in the first half an hour of opening it, so there is a lot of demand for the kind of help you can provide for York students.

Thank you again for running this event for us,

Daniel Gardiner.
