CV strategies that get you noticed by top Tech companies
Hey reader,
There's nothing I love more than women reaching out to me, saying my content actually moved the needle for them.
I recently received this message:
"I found your session on creating a CV so helpful (in fact, the most useful content I've come across so far!) Could you share with me the template?"
Messages like this remind me why I do what I do, and why I need to share this with all of you!
Here’s what’s happening
Incredibly talented women with 10+ years of experience are getting passed over for interviews because they're underselling themselves on paper.
A Sales Manager with 12 years of experience writes "Managed team of Account Managers" on her CV. Meanwhile, what she actually did was lead her team to 145% of quota while the company missed overall targets by 20%, directly contributing € 3.2M in expansion revenue.
One of these gets you an interview. The other gets you ignored.
At your level, a great CV won't land you the job, but it can absolutely keep you from getting interviews with your target companies.
As a former recruiter, hiring manager, and now career coach who's reviewed thousands of CVs, I know exactly what separates the CVs that get interviews from the ones that get passed over.
When you're 10+ years into your career, you're not competing on potential. You're competing on proven ability to drive results. The women who land interviews at top companies know how to position their wins in a way that makes hiring managers think: "This is exactly what we need on our team."
During the LinkedIn Live, I broke down:
Why most CVs get rejected by recruiters (it's not what you think)
How recruiters actually scan your CV in those crucial first 10 seconds
The exact changes that transform your CV from "impressive background" to "we need to interview her immediately."

I'm also sharing the CV template my clients use to land roles at companies like Stripe, Google, and Remote. Reply to this email with "TEMPLATE" and I'll send it your way.
You've built an incredible career. Now let's make sure the right companies can see exactly why they need you.
Talk soon,
Jennifer
