adding skills

“When I started at EY, I was 21 and my first senior manager was very, very old – about 30 [laughs]. He said to me, ‘Tony, you need to do your CV every six months. If you can’t add something to your CV from the previous six months and you can’t foresee that you’ll add anything to your CV in the next six months, you should make a change.’ I have stuck to that discipline, not necessarily writing out the CV, but asking myself, ‘Have I put something on my CV in the past six months and can I for the next six months?’ I suspect that’s even more important now.”
