Not Just a CV

I have come across so many job hunters who feel that all they need is a s*!t hot CV to get a job and get into work.

Of much less importance, is self awareness, knowledge of the business environment they wish to enter into and understanding personalities.  The may just about have a grasp of their rights, responsibilities and obligations but they mix up the time use and/or exercise them.

When people come to me they always cite confidence as a strong reason why they have not achieved or aspired.

I have my own original personally derived quote:

"Achievement is when the dream marries opportunity, shrouds itself with focus and is driven by faith"

There are other very respected individuals who have quotes along the same lines.
