Hi Beckie, 
Really helpful info on the STAR approach there, thanks for that!

Something else I've just been advised on that might help everyone (which might seem like common sense) is to split your CV up into 'Relevant' and 'Other' sections, so that all of your 'relevant' experience can be seem front and centre on your CV and is easy to find and read. 
Hope that helps and thanks Beckie and everyone for all your advice, I feel a lot more confident now!

Hi Beckie, 
Great to know you're considering marine conservation, and thank you for all the resources, they are really helpful. I also would love to pursue a career in the marine sector, so if there is anything I can help with or just to chat, please just give me a shout! 
Good luck and all the best!

Hi Aurora! Thanks for joining the group! I would love to join in on the volunteering too if possible, sounds like a great opportunity. I think I've seen/heard about them before, thank you for the link!

Hi Rosheen, 
Thank you for your advice, it is extremely helpful, and also for reading/replying to all the others posts from Molly and Samantha. It's wonderful to see such a supportive group of conservationists! I think I will make another post about LinkedIn if you are personally interested in connecting, and hope others will start connecting to.

Thank you Samantha, that is fantastic advice! 
Some of your tips I try to do anyway, especially the key word bit (only just picked up on that in my last few applications). 
I really appreciate the offer of reading through some applications, and would love a second eye on them if you have the time. Is there a best way of sending them to you? 

Good luck too and thanks again!
