The circumstances
For personal and family reasons Chris relocated to Birmingham
from Chicago where she had held a number of general management
positions with well established US financial services companies.
As a business professional she assumed it would be fairly
straightforward to find an opening. But after three months’
concerted effort she was getting nowhere. Chris decided to engage the services of Appleby Associates and worked with one of our professional career consultants.
The issues
- She was 'different'
- She lacked local knowledge and had a very thin UK network
- And she was unaware of UK recruiting methods
The outcome
An Appleby Associates career consultant, who had worked with clients
in a similar position to Chris, was able to make a real difference
to her search. Her career consultant helped with everything from showing her how to write a CV geared to the UK market to interview techniques to establishing an effective career
search network. With these new skills and know-how, Chris was
able to land a role running a small insurance company.
