Welcome to
the Downsizing section of Accountancy Jobs Board the specialist place where you can search to
find your ideal job in accountancy.
Downsizing:
For many different reasons, when you leave a high
profile demanding job, you may wish to downsize.
This can prove to be a difficult thing to achieve for
some people as many potential employers may see your
application as a “stop gap” whilst you look elsewhere to
find a position more suited to your situation.
You may think that this would not be the case, but put
yourself in their position.
What would you think?
Would you employ yourself?
Would you think that if employed they would not be
satisfied with the job and maybe start reaching to take
yours?
For most of us the answer to one or all of these
questions would stop you from even inviting an
interview.
So, what can you do to get the interview and land the
job?
On the application form / CV use the reasons for being
right for the job and wanting the job by explaining
yourself and your situation.
Enclose a covering letter if that seems more suitable.
Possible scenarios are:-
“My previous experience can give your company the
qualities that the position requires”.
“After having spent many years working in a high profile
environment I feel it is time to put my talents to a
more diversified and challenging situation”.
“Now is the time for a change of direction in my career”
At the Interview:-
Always remember first impressions count
Use the first available opportunity to reinforce the
reasons you gave on the CV/ Application / Letter
Stress your willingness to be part of the team (Not the
leader of it!)
Don’t overstress your previous achievements /
qualifications.
