    I am unemployed right now, but I have no idea as to the kind of jobs that would be suited to me because I've done so many different aspects throughout my college career and sometimes feel like I'm applying for entirely the wrong jobs.

    What I'd like to know is whether anyone has any experience with career guidance in Dublin? Ideally something that is within a reasonable cost, because I can't afford anything too much. What I would love is someone professional to go over my CV, LinkedIn, and how I write cover letters to let me know whether there is anything I can change.

    my 2 cents....

    I went to a lady in Cork years ago, prob around 2011, operated from a rented office in town, probably closed now, cost was EUR 90.

    For that I got 1hour in an office, submitted my CV as a word doc, and it came back much better. I feel it was worthwhile. Not sure it helped me job wise, but the price wasn't too high.

    I work in recruitment. It's IT recruitment so I can be of limited help for career advice outside of that sector but I'm happy to look over your CV and LinkedIn and send you some information to help.

    If you PM me your email address, I'll get in touch.
