Three kits, $9 each
Each kit is a one-page start guide, a short plain guide, fill-in files for Word or Google Docs, worked examples marked EXAMPLE, and a checklist. UK and US wording. There is also an optional text you can paste into ChatGPT or a similar assistant to fill the letter in for you; everything works without it.
Explain a gap or why you left
What to say on the form, in your cover letter and in the interview, for six situations: time out caring for children or a relative; illness or burnout; redundancy or layoff; dismissed or left under a cloud; a short job or several short jobs; a step down or career change. Fill-in files, worked examples and a checklist. Read the free guide first.
Ask for a raise
A one-page worksheet for your case, the email asking for the meeting, what to say in the meeting, and follow-ups after a yes, a not now or a no. Also versions for extra duties with no new title and for hourly workers. Read the free guide first.
Hard messages at work
Eight fill-in messages for the moments you dread, each with a calm and a firmer version: confirm a difficult talk in writing, push back on workload, ask for flexible hours, raise a colleague's behaviour, reply to criticism, ask for a decision that keeps being put off, say no to extra unpaid work, ask HR for a policy or a meeting.
