Example
“I am a Social Media Executive with 3 years’
experience. I specialize in helping companies and
entrepreneurs growing their Facebook page. And in the
last 3 years alone I have helped dozens of clients in 10
different industries. And on average I have been able to
help my clients to increase their engagement and grow
their fan page by 300 to 500 percent in less than 6
months.”
Example
“I am a Management Consultant with 12 years’ experience
gained across industries and sectors ranging from financial
services and retail to petrochemicals and media. I am
responsible for business development activities and last year
sold projects totaling £400,000 to clients. On a day-today
basis, I also manage a team of up to eight consultants and
junior consultants. But more than being a good consultant, I
like to think of myself as a fair and democratic person as I try
hard to listen to my clients as well as my team.”
