Turn your experience into a CV, pitch and interview story that opens doors.

As you get older, more doors begin to open. The question is: will you know how to stepvthrough them? A teacher suggests work experience. Someone asks if you’d like to apply for an internship. A university application needs a personal statement. An interviewer says, “Tell me about yourself.“ For many teenagers, these moments feel surprisingly difficult—not because they have nothing to say, but because they’ve never learned how to recognise the value of what they’ve already done or turn it into a story that shows who they are.

The truth is, you probably already have more experience than you realise. School projects, hobbies, volunteering, sport, helping at home and everyday challenges all help you build valuable skills. In this course, you’ll learn how to recognise those strengths, connect them to real-life skills and tell your story with confidence. Along the way, you’ll create practical tools you can use for CVs, interviews, work experience, university applications, internships and many other opportunities.

By the end of the course, you’ll have your own Personal Story Kit — a collection of resources that will help you present yourself with confidence whenever new opportunities come your way.
