About the School of Self-Success
We know that leaving education can feel overwhelming, especially when no one really shows you how to take that first step. That’s why we’ve built a course that teaches you the real-life skills school didn’t. From how to create a standout CV to preparing for interviews, finding jobs that actually suit you, and building the confidence to talk about yourself, even if you don’t have any experience yet. It all starts with Module 1: How to Write a Winning CV & Personal Statement — and we’re giving it to you completely free! It’s practical, and packed with advice from people who know exactly what employers look for. Whether you’ve never written a CV before, or just want to stop getting ghosted after you apply, this first lesson will show you how to present yourself in the best way possible. Once you’ve completed the first module, you’ll have the chance to unlock the full course — and that’s where the transformation really begins. You’ll learn how to find jobs that feel like the right fit, how to research companies and prepare for interviews, and how to communicate clearly and professionally in the workplace. We’ll also cover things like time management, understanding your first payslip, and setting realistic goals for your future. Our course is all about helping you to feel confident, capable, and clear on what comes next — no matter where you're starting from or where you're going! Good luck! Team SOS x
