Helping you get the job you want

Whether you’re applying for your first job, making a career move or you’ve been looking for a while but without much success, we believe that many of you would appreciate a little support during the application process. Applying for a new job can be a daunting process - we can make it an easier. And that’s our aim with this resource: to give advice that might be useful when you apply for a job. Not necessarily a job at The Co-operative, but a job anywhere.

So you’ll find tips on things like writing a CV employers want to read, and preparing for an interview. We’ll also tell you about other places to go for useful information. Hopefully, it’ll help you come across in the best possible light when applying.

But bear in mind that every candidate and every job is different, so there’s no ‘one size fits all’ approach when it comes to giving advice. And no matter what, there’s only one person who can get you a new job. You.
