Anyone used one?

Got referred to one and had an hour it felt very intense, not sure I want to have another session …they want to meet again soon but I feel like cancelling.

They shared their CV to give me tips which is uselful …but they have a photo, dob personal details married with kids, hobbies …

am not at ease sharing that stuff as they asked me to send mine …seems a lot of info to share with a stranger.

also as a guide to I was told have these meetings every 2 to 4 weeks …which I mentioned to them but they booked another session in 9 days which feels too soon…

help?

Those who can, do...

I wouldn't trust the advice of a person with a CV as you've described. I get the feeling this is just some random person who got stuck during covid and thought, yeah, I'll give this a go.

Those are obvious CV mistakes.

@bifurCAT that’s what I thought too. I am not saying my cv is great at all but when they shared their one I was surprised to see their photo on there along with dob , full home address, number of children and wife etc …am reluctant to share mine now for critique …

I thought photos and dob were no no’s….🤔

Absolutely. Essentially, anything that could be used to discriminate: picture, address, political views, ethnicity, religion. This is basic stuff!
