What's inside

Everything inside the guide.

Six chapters. Every one gives you something you can copy, adapt and use the same day.

Chapter 01 – 02
The Professional Summary Formula + 4 ready-made examples
The 3-part formula used in every session: who you are, what you're looking for, what you bring. Four complete worked summaries across different backgrounds: career switcher, school leaver, warehouse worker, returner to work. Match yours to one and adapt it.
Example from the guide
"Motivated hospitality professional with 3 years of customer-facing experience managing up to 200 covers per shift in fast-paced environments, looking to transition into an airport customer service role…"
Chapter 03 – 04
CV structure, ordering rules + the 3 rules every CV must follow
Exactly where to put each section and when to change the order depending on your situation. Plus the three non-negotiable rules: page limits, PDF format, and how to name your file so recruiters can actually find it when they have 200 open.
Direct from the guide
"Recruiters spend an average of 6 seconds scanning a CV before deciding whether to keep reading. A clear structure is what makes those 6 seconds work in your favour."
Chapter 05
The 5-step tailoring system: how to match every application
Step-by-step: how to read a job advert properly, pull the exact keywords, check the company's values page, mirror their language in your bullets, and update your skills section to match. Includes a generic vs. tailored example side-by-side so you can see the difference immediately.
Side-by-side from the guide
Generic: "Motivated individual looking for a role in aviation…"
Tailored: "Customer-focused hospitality professional… seeking a passenger services role with easyJet…"
Chapter 06 – 07
60+ bullet points across 7 experience types: copy, adapt, use
Retail, hospitality, warehouse, customer service, admin, school and voluntary experience. Every bullet point follows the formula: action verb → what you did → numbers → impact → aviation relevance. You find your category, swap in your numbers, and you're done.
Retail example from the guide
"Served 120–180 customers per shift, resolving 15–25 enquiries daily and improving queue flow times by 25–35% during peak periods through clear communication and prioritisation."
Chapter 08
Aviation language glossary: the exact phrases that land interviews
Passenger-facing language, operational language, safety and compliance language, teamwork language. These are the phrases aviation recruiters and ATS systems are scanning for, organised by category so you can drop them into any bullet point.
From the glossary
"…maintaining accuracy required in safety-critical aviation roles."  ·  "…reflecting the pace of airport terminal operations."
Bonus
The fill-in-the-blanks bullet point template
One universal template you can apply to any experience. Fill in your volume, your action, your impact, your aviation relevance, and you have a recruiter-ready bullet point in under a minute. Includes a full worked breakdown so you understand every part.
The template
"Handled [X volume] of [tasks/customers/items] by [doing action], resulting in [impact] and reflecting the demands of [aviation role/environment]."
Chapter 01 – 02
