The Cambridge Marketing Meetup is an informal, friendly place for the marketers of Cambridge to meet, learn, and share knowledge with one another. Come in ‘listen’ not ‘sell’ mode 🙂
We’re back in the lovely Bradfield Centre for this one. We just want to get together, say hello, have a chat, and have a nice time.
Think of this as a community event, where the focus is very much on you meeting other people. We’ll chat over food and drink, listen to an inspirational speaker or two, chat some more, and go home buzzing with new contacts and new ideas.
Let’s have a lovely night in the company of some amazin’ people.

Topic: Winning the CV Game – tips for job hunters and hiring managers
It’s all about winning the CV game…
Whether you’re looking to spruce up your CV or wanting to become the CV decoder for the best hire, this talk is essential for both junior and senior marketers.
Writing or spotting a good CV sounds simple, but with new technology, high competition for roles, and more in-depth interviews, getting tips from the experts could lead you to your dream role, or your “unicorn” hire. So change your CV from meh to marvellous:
– Spot CV red flags
– How to beat the bots in the CV game
– Market yourself or your business to land your dream job or hire
– Recruitment horror stories, cheat-code tips, and insights on winning the CV game
The talk will be light, relevant, and digestible, covering everything from how to market yourself to battling CV bots. Join Kiran and Scott for a mash-up of talk and podcast-style interview, covering recruitment horror stories and the secrets of winning the CV game. We can assure you it’ll be packed full of “ohhh that makes sense” moments, useful tips, and real-world examples.
What you’ll leave knowing!
Whether you’re job hunting, hiring, or just keeping your options open, you’ll leave this talk feeling more confident about your CV or hiring a team member. You’ll come away with clear tips to land your dream job or the perfect hire. At the very least, you’ll leave with funny recruitment stories, and a lollipop.

Please let your marketing friends and colleagues know about this group too, I hope to build it into a great resource for the community over the coming months and years. Attendance will be taken at this event. If you sign up but don’t show up, this has a knock on effect on event arrangements. If it happens 3 times, you’re outta here!
