Join me, Eleanor Pilcher – award-winning freelance marketing consultant, founder of Market Your Marketing on Substack, co-host of Why You're Reading, content creator and author, with over 10 years of experience in marketing and publicity – for a practical, honest session on how to write applications that actually get noticed.

This webinar will cover:

  • How to structure a CV for publishing roles (and what to leave out)
  • Writing a cover letter that’s specific, concise, and persuasive
  • How to answer blind application questions effectively
  • Common mistakes that stop good candidates from progressing to an interview

The second half of the session will be a live Q&A, so bring your questions!
