Job Hunting/
interview Support

Understanding your journey

Searching for a job can be one of the most draining experiences a person goes through. When the applications keep stacking up, the silence grows louder, and confidence begins to slip, it becomes more than a career challenge. It becomes emotional, personal, and often overwhelming.

Richard has spent over twenty-five years inside the hiring world and have seen every version of the jobseeker story. From those taking their first steps, to senior professionals confused by a market that won’t respond. He understands the frustration, the fatigue, and the feeling of running out of ideas.
