Top Tip: Use Summer to Reflect, Not Retreat

Sunshine, CV Updates, and Career Clarity

Summer can be a time for relaxation — but it’s also ideal for re-evaluating your career. Fewer meetings, slower inboxes, and longer evenings mean you’ve got space to think clearly about where you’re heading.

Why Now Is the Time to Check In with Yourself

Ask yourself:

  • Am I happy in my current role?

  • Have I hit the goals I set in January?

  • Is there room to grow here — or do I need a change?

  • What would I love to be doing this time next year?

Turn Reflection into Action

It doesn’t mean you have to leap tomorrow. But updating your CV, reconnecting with your recruiter, and getting a feel for the market gives you control — and confidence.

You’ll be ahead of the September job rush, and you’ll know exactly what you’re aiming for.
