ASHLEY CAHILLANE, Career Coach, Galway
Ashley uses her advanced training in the English language to help clients at Sli Nua Careers create winning CVs and LinkedIn profiles. She believes that a CV should be more than a generic list of skills and experiences: her passion for literature causes her to search for the story behind peoples’ experiences, and to present that story in a lively way that captures their personality.
Of course, being a grammar enthusiast, she writes with fervent attention to detail. As the LinkedIn specialist for Sli Nua Careers, Ashley also applies her story-oriented approach to helping people create and maintain a vibrant online presence that expands their career horizons.
