Preparing your CV or cover letter is a strangely awkward experience; You want to make yourself look great, but not come across as an obnoxious career psycho.
Spoiler alert: I am not career obsessed.
For some more perspective I have used a CV service, and for additional dimension, I have included comments from former staff and colleagues.
As a team builder, I find one of the most enjoyable aspects of business is creating relationships and seeing colleagues develop and achieve progress.
I am proud that some of them have taken time to recognize some of my qualities in their own words.
“…His work at the innovation department at Santander and leading the whole Superdigital app team was remarkable. His vast and varied experience across many industries and countries, mixed with a “keep it real” personality make him a unique entrepreneur and innovator…”
“...a strong general manager and has excellent client management skills. He is respected and admired by his team and his clients alike. He strikes the right balance between understanding the big picture and mastering the details and giving his team ample room while providing mentorship and delivering results.”
“...ha logrado construir estrategias y alinear los equipos de trabajo, lo que además de representar el corazón actual de nuestra oficina, nos ha permitido responder a las nuevas demandas que él mismo ha generado.”
“…I highly recommend Hamish as an extremely diligent, hardworking, and methodical business director. He is also creative, energetic, and extremely good company to work with and will drive the company's culture from top to bottom.”
“Hamish is a dedicated and talented analytical marketer that has a long list of achievements in North America as well as LATAM. His customer advocacy and commitment to measurable success is what makes him a person to trust to exceed your marketing and revenue goals.”
“…his character, leadership abilities and extensive network were the keys to success and lead us to outperform our competitors. He created an environment that inspired employees and co-workers.”
“Hamish has so far been the best mentor and leader I have had during my working life. A person committed to the work of others, always providing the tools and guides where you needed them. He is one of those leaders who push the team to improve day by day and not those who want things to be done "as I say".
He has an enviable entrepreneurial mind: every new challenge gets his vision applied and he is able to communicate it effectively – despite the fact that his first language is not Spanish…”
