Employment advice by Media Contacts for Candidates

 

How to Market Yourself Effectively

Attractive jobs naturally generate a large number of applicants and employers have to make quick decisions, with limited information, as to who they will want to interview. To secure your ideal job, you need to understand how to best present yourself to a potential employer. Here are some tried and tested methods of communicating why you are a perfect candidate for your chosen role.

  • Write an attractive CV

Tailor your CV to each job you apply for. This will enable you to demonstrate to an employer that you understand the demands of a job due to your experience. Do not send out generic CVs. When thinking about a CV layout, keep things simple, as a potential employer needs something easy to read. Make sure you include your achievements – we see a lot of CVs outlining what someone does, but not whether they are actually any good at it!

  • Be confident

Oozing confidence shows potential employers that you believe in yourself and your abilities, reflecting that they can believe in you too.

  • Highlight career goals

Having set goals highlights that you are looking to constantly progress, are organised and ambitious.

  • Show some personality

Demonstrate your personal passions to show how well-rounded you are as an individual. Be prepared to talk about what you are reading at the moment, and what your interests are.

  • Be active on social media

Social media is powerful if used in the right way, keep your social profiles up to date and professional. LinkedIn/Facebook groups are handy to join as you can meet industry professionals, develop professional relationships and get yourself recognised.

  • Use the right terminology

Using the correct terminology will demonstrate to potential employers that you are knowledgeable about your industry.

  • Do your Research

Be prepared to explain to an employer exactly why you are interested in working for them. Talk about their product or service offering, successes they have had and their vision. Many companies will have this information in their “About Us” or “Careers” section of their web site. Also be ready to talk about the industry you work in – what are the trends and latest news?

  • Look the Part

Make sure you are smartly presented and in tune with the culture and dress code of the company. A firm handshake and good eye contact are also important. Avoid smelling of smoke, food etc

The Annual Wren Talk: ’Nicholas Barbon – the man who transformed London’

Architectural writer and historian Jeremy Melvin gives this year’s talk on the colourful seventeenth century economist and financier, Nicholas Barbon, who turned property development into speculation and invented fire insurance.

It was not worth his while to deal little; that a bricklayer could do‘ an admirer wrote of Wren’s contemporary Nicholas Barbon. This  assessment contains the key to how Barbon transformed London: he turned property development from an extension of construction (bricklaying) into fully fledged speculation — where it has been ever since.

Barbon invented the concept of risk management through founding the first fire insurance company. His tracts, like ‘An Apology for the Builder’ and ‘Of Trade’, argued the benefits of continuous economic growth backed by expansion of credit. This led Karl Marx, with grudging approval, to make ‘Old Barbon’ the first economic authority he cited in Das Kapital.

Jeremy Melvin was formerly consultant curator to the Royal Academy architecture programme, he is Programme Curator for the World Architecture Festival and a visiting professor at the Bartlett School of Architecture.

The Talk and Q&A session will be chaired by Paul Finch, programme director of the World Architecture Festival and editorial director of the Architectural Review and Architects’ Journal.

Limited tickets are available to attend in person at St Bride’s, Fleet Street, and the event will also be streamed live on YouTube. Click here to register:

    Executive Board Report 2018/19

    IBP’s 50th anniversary brings an opportunity both to reflect and to cast our minds forwards to the future.

    The organisation’s beginnings date back to the meeting of a handful of construction industry journalists in a Rotterdam pub in 1969. Their common aim was to seek and provide “mutual friendship, help and information”. Five decades on, the core purpose of IBP remains unchanged.

    Now, as then, the specialist media has a crucial role in informing, scrutinising and holding decision-makers to account. Now, as then, our members possess unique insight based on unrivalled knowledge.

    The built environment is a bricks and mortar industry of huge significance to the economy. It is also socially and politically pivotal. During the past year, IBP members have continued their proud tradition of informing public discourse on topics as varied as prime ministerial hopeful Boris Johnson’s ill-fated £53m garden bridge, to the Grenfell Tower tragedy, the collapse of Carillion, and HS2.

    IBP continues to support members, bringing together journalists and communications professionals from the construction, design, property and housing sectors. We recognise and celebrate excellence. We promote common interests and learning.

    In 2018, the Communication and PR Awards once again celebrated the talent, knowledge and dedication of members. From London Communication Agency’s highly creative Slideatron project, which involved erecting a giant Christmas-themed slide at Wembley Park, to Liz Male’s diversity campaign at Mipim, winning entries were varied and impressive. FTI’s Ellie Perham-Marchant wowed the judges with the range, impact and passion of her work to take home the Young Communicator of the Year award.

    The 45th IBP Journalism Awards opened with an address from ACE chief executive Hannah Vickers, who provided a fascinating insight into her journey crossing over from HM Treasury. The awards were once again judged by a respected expert judging panel, and highlighted the quality and value of committed, long-term investigative journalism. The national and regional media were strongly represented, alongside the built environment B2B titles.

    IBP’s anniversary year kicked off with ‘Build on 50’, a series of events and activities to prompt debate about the future of the built environment media. The programme got off to a strong start with a re-launched IBP Futures Group series. Over 80 members gathered to take part in the “Investigative Impact: making investigative journalism go further and faster” and hear from two Orwell Prize shortlisted reporters: Madison Marriage, whose undercover investigation blew open the Presidents Club scandal and Jane Bradley, whose ‘From Russia with Love’ series shone a light on murders on British soil.

    In the next session, Richard Fletcher, Business Editor, The Times joined a panel of young journalists and an audience of communicators to discuss the challenges we all face in engaging with Gen Z.

    It is a great honour, as 15th IBP president, to have the opportunity to look back at past achievements and contribute towards shaping the organisation for the future. IBP is run for and by its members, and your involvement and input will underpin our work in the coming years. I urge all members to think about what you would like to see from IBP and get involved in creating that future.

    I warmly thank all board members – past and present – for generously giving their time and expertise at meetings and working groups. On behalf of members, I thank Gerald Bowey for his commitment, service and direction over the years.

    I look forward to continuing to work with members as we Build on 50.
