About Jaan
About Me
I’m a Lancaster University graduate who secured an Analyst position at American Express at just 22, joining a leading S&P 500 financial services company early in my career. Since then, I’ve built experience across financial services, boutique law, accountancy, cybersecurity and digital payments, giving me an insight into what it takes to stand out in competitive recruitment processes.
My Experience
My career began with internships at boutique law firms, before I moved into cybersecurity at the National Cyber Security Centre, where I contributed to initiatives strengthening data protection and won an award for my work. I then joined a high-growth digital payments startup as a graduate, gaining experience in a fast-moving, scaling business, before securing my Analyst role at American Express.
Mentoring
I’ve mentored 50 students, helping them strengthen their CVs, prepare for interviews and pursue opportunities with leading employers, including Big Four firms and competitive internship programmes. Ten of those students went on to secure offers at the Big Four. Having been through these processes myself, I know how to present your experience effectively, communicate your value and approach applications with confidence.
What I Offer
Alongside my professional career, I offer personalised career mentoring, CV writing, interview preparation.
My Mission
I want to make high-quality guidance more accessible, helping students and graduates build the confidence, skills and strategy to pursue ambitious academic and professional goals. n.

My Service
CV Writing:
Your CV has a few seconds to make an impression, so I help you make them count. Whether you need a full rewrite or a polish, I’ll work with you to show your experience clearly and with impact.
- CV review and feedback: a detailed look at what’s working, what’s not and what’s missing, with clear next steps.
- Full CV rewrite: I rebuild your CV around your strongest achievements, turning duties into results.
- Tailoring to the role: adapting your CV for specific sectors, such as Big Four, finance, law or cybersecurity, so it speaks the language recruiters expect.
- Cover letters and application questions: writing that backs up your CV and answers “why this firm, why this role” convincingly.
- LinkedIn profile review: so your online presence matches your CV and attracts recruiters.
- Formatting for applicant tracking systems: a clean, professional layout that reads well to both software and people.
Interview Preparation:
Interviews are a skill, and it can be learned. I help you prepare thoroughly so you walk in knowing your story and how to tell it.
- Competency and strengths-based interviews: building strong, structured answers (using frameworks like STAR) from your own experience.
- Mock interviews with feedback: realistic practice followed by honest, specific feedback on content, delivery and confidence.
- Video interviews and online assessments: guidance on the formats many graduate employers now use as early screening stages.
- Assessment centre preparation: group exercises, presentations and what assessors look for.
- Commercial awareness: how to talk about the firm, the sector and current events with credibility.
- Your story and your questions: crafting a clear “tell me about yourself” and thoughtful questions to ask the interviewer.
Career Mentoring
Beyond individual applications, I offer ongoing support to help you build a clear direction and a strategy to get there.
- Career direction: exploring sectors and roles, so you apply for what suits you rather than everything at once.
- Application strategy: planning deadlines, prioritising employers and tracking applications so nothing slips.
- Building your experience: advice on internships, work experience, societies and projects that strengthen your profile.
- Networking and outreach: how to approach professionals and use LinkedIn to open doors.
- From internship to graduate offer: what to do to make the most of placements and convert them into offers.
- Ongoing support: regular check-ins, accountability and encouragement through the ups and downs.
