Respect

Integrity

Honesty

Sincerity

Hi, I'm Penny 

I’ve set up Apply and Succeed to provide you with tailored advice and support on any part of the job application process. I offer three coaching options, but each session is flexible - content can be mixed or combined based on your needs. Whatever you need support with, that's what we'll focus on. For most people, just one hour of coaching is enough to implement changes or refine their skills for better results. My approach is professional yet relaxed, so our session feels more like a conversation than formal instruction!

You can read more about me here or if you’d like to find out how I could help, please do give me a call.  You're under no obligation to proceed and it might just help you find out whether coaching's going to be right for you.

How & Why Coaching Works

  • With my one-on-one coaching, you receive tailored advice that focuses solely on you and your unique applications. Unlike generic online information, my guidance is customised to fit your specific needs
     

  • Together we'll review every aspect of your application, making targeted adjustments that turn negative outcomes into positive ones.
     

  • You get support and advice to increase your confidence.  Many people have all the knowledge and skills to succeed, but lack self-belief - I'm here to help bridge that gap
     

  • Plus you'll receive ongoing support through phone and email for 7 days after our coaching session, ensuring you continue to receive the guidance you need as you move forward
