4 Practising your pitch

5 Your pitch What do you say to the question: “What do you do?” Your degree is not enough. 1 minute to: –Tell your story –Sell yourself or an idea –Make an arrangement (a date?) –Leave a good impression

6 One formula is as follows: Who am I? What am I offering? What evidence do I have for this? How can I add value to you? What do I want from you?

7 Example - Andrew Who am I? Hi – I’m Andrew – Andrew Falconer. I’m based at Royal Holloway, where I advise students about a variety of careers and help them prepare to find work. What am I offering? I have particular expertise in the area of interview coaching. A lot of people have trouble doing well in interviews: I work individually with clients to help them improve their interview skills, and get great jobs. What evidence do I have for this? Over the last five years I’ve worked with hundreds of clients, including MBAs, delivering interview workshops and individual practise interview sessions. I have a folder of grateful emails from clients whose interviewing techniques have improved dramatically as a result of my coaching. How could I add value to you? Working with me will significantly improve your chances of succeeding at interview. What do I want from you? I’d love to hear about your background, and whether you’ve had any success interviewing for jobs so far.

8 The placement’s formula is as follows: Who am I? What am I offering? What evidence do I have for this? What do I want from this placement? What will a successful placement mean for both of us? What does my long term future look like?
