Support in the areas of hiring:

- Writing and presentation of a hard-hitting CV both in form and content (how to arouse the interest of the reader and how to be invited to a job interview).
-Writing of a motivation letter (response to a job offer or spontaneous application).
- Preparation and repetition of a job interview (key questions ... to say and not to say)
- Techniques to optimize verbal and non-verbal communication

Together we identify the relevant elements that guarantee you a CV that attracts attention and guarantees that you will be invited to a job interview.

During the rehearsal of a job interview, we prepare the answers to give, the aspects not to say. I work on both the verbal and the nonverbal aspects. If desired, a video can be recorded and analyzed together.

Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract:
- After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background
- stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary.
- Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020)

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.

But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later).
In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.

Complex academic and professional goals become manageable when the objective is clear, the methodology is sound, the work is properly planned, and decisions are based on structured reasoning rather than improvisation.

This class provides personalized guidance for university students, graduate researchers, engineers, professionals, managers, career changers, and adult learners. Depending on your objective, we can focus on one of three clearly defined pathways or connect them when your situation genuinely requires an integrated approach.

My approach follows a common structured logic:
define the objective → diagnose the current situation → identify constraints → select the appropriate methodology → build the plan → execute → monitor → evaluate → communicate the result → improve

We can work with your research proposal, thesis plan, supervisor feedback, conceptual framework, questionnaire, methodology chapter, project schedule, WBS, risk register, MS Project or Primavera file, CV, job description, interview questions, or professional-development challenge.

I do not simply provide generic templates or ready-made answers. I help you understand why a method or strategy fits your situation, what assumptions it depends on, how to evaluate alternatives, how to detect weaknesses, and how to defend the final decision clearly.

Academic and professional integrity are essential. I provide teaching, methodological guidance, critical feedback, analytical support, planning, coaching, and supervision-style mentoring. I do not write assessed theses or dissertations, complete examinations, fabricate research results, or misrepresent a student’s or professional’s experience.

My goal is to help you become the genuine owner of your research, project, or professional path—able to explain your decisions, manage complexity, communicate clearly, and move forward independently.

As a researcher and professor specializing in linguistics, I designed this online Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) course to offer you an interactive and dynamic experience deeply connected with the real use of the language and focused on your professional goals.
This class is designed for students, professionals, freelancers, and anyone looking to enter the Spanish-speaking job market or enhance their profile in international settings. The goal is for you to communicate with Spanish naturally and confidently, boosting your opportunities. Don't worry about your starting point: the content will be tailored to your current level and your specific sector or academic field, allowing you to progress step by step and see concrete results from the very first lesson.
In this course, we'll work remotely, combining video calls with interactive digital tools. What can you expect from this program? Throughout the sessions, we'll use a multimodal approach: we'll articulate strategic conversations with digital tools, explore virtual urban environments, and integrate artificial intelligence models to enhance your technical and sales writing skills.
Among other objectives, I propose the following:
- Master your professional presentation. Learn how to present yourself confidently in virtual or in-person meetings, talk about your career path, and handle spontaneous social conversations or the beginning of video calls with Spanish-speaking colleagues with ease.
- Produce impeccable corporate messages. Learn to write formal emails, proposals, or messages for different teamwork platforms using professional writing techniques.
- Master the specific vocabulary of your work sector. Identify and activate the technical and corporate terms and the appropriate formal/informal register for your specific area of performance (technology, administration, services, marketing, research, among others).
- Perform in mock job interviews. Practice answering common job interview questions in Spanish, improving your fluency, speaking time management, and ability to argue your skills under pressure.
- Understand complex instructions and signage in urban environments. Train your listening and critical reading skills by exploring job websites and urban signage in Spanish-speaking cities using digital tools and maps, interpreting real-world work information.
- Enjoy the language. You will incorporate current vocabulary and idiomatic expressions through authentic content (urban posters, interactive activities and recognized audiovisual productions), so that the process of speaking Spanish is an entertaining and enriching journey for your life.
Interested in learning more? I'll answer all your questions.
