Background Eva’s Journey with Personal Branding Kit:
Eva, a multilingual Director of Customer Operations for a major global oil and gas company, had been without a career change for 11 years. With personal circumstances requiring her to move to either the UK, Spain, or Denmark, she faced multiple challenges. She gave a priority to her current employer and asked to be transferred to one of her target locations, but the company refused.
Saddened by their decision, she realised that she might need to make a dramatic career change to land a job in her target country. However, her CV was outdated for a career transition, and her LinkedIn profile did not highlight her range of skills that might be of interest to potential employers. She sought assistance from Mentor EU and embarked on a journey that led her to three job offers and, ultimately, a promotion within her current company to a position in her preferred location in the UK.
Process:
Mentor EU evaluated Eva’s situation and proposed the Personal Branding Kit for Senior Executives. This program was designed to streamline and enhance her professional presence, both on paper and online. The team worked closely with her to update her CV and other professional documents and revamp her LinkedIn profile to reflect her breadth of skills and experience. Eva also got training on how to work with executive search consultants, and how to enhance her personal brand.
Personal Branding Kit Impact:
“The Personal Branding Kit from Mentor EU was precisely what I needed,” Eva stated. “My CV was able to resonate with new industry players, and my LinkedIn profile increased visibility of my versatile skills.”
Eva received three job offers from companies in Denmark, Spain, and the Netherlands after utilising Mentor EU’s services.
Unexpected Turn:
Just as Eva was about to accept a position with a technological start-up in Spain, her former employer asked her to withdraw her resignation. They offered her a position in the UK, her preferred location.
“Being offered a new position within my old company, in my preferred location, was an unexpected but welcome surprise. I believe the updated professional presence that Mentor EU helped me achieve played a significant role in this outcome,” Eva explained.
Success Metrics:
- Three job offers from different countries within the required time frame.
- An unexpected internal job offer, enabling Eva to stay with her old company in a desired location.
