How a UK Compliance Bootcamp and CV Optimisation Launched My Career
It had been a few weeks since I completed the UK Compliance Bootcamp, and I was ready to apply for roles, but there was a problem. My CV and LinkedIn profile needed serious work. “Your LinkedIn profile needs to tell a story,” I remember the facilitator from RKY Career said.
A CV and LinkedIn Profile in Need of Transformation
I had known for a while that my CV was outdated. It felt like a laundry list of past jobs, none of which seemed to scream “compliance.” After the bootcamp, I needed a profile reflecting my new skills and ambitions. Fortunately, CV and LinkedIn optimisation is a part of the value offered at RKY Career UK Compliance Bootcamp. With the polish on my CV and LinkedIn profile, I was set for maximum visibility.

The facilitator at the UK Compliance Bootcamp had advised us to focus on the skills we’d gained, not just list job titles. Her advice was to highlight our achievements and lessons from each experience. I had spent years working in customer service, and though I hadn’t realised it before, many of those experiences were highly relevant to compliance.

The Interview: Connecting Compliance Training to Customer Service
Impressively, I received an interview invite a week later. I was confident of my abilities based on the lessons I had learned in both the bootcamp and the CV optimisation process. “Tell us about your experience,” the hiring manager asked. I explained the new tools and techniques the UK Compliance Bootcamp had given me and how they relate to customer service. “It wasn’t just about learning AML/KYC regulations,” I said. “It was about understanding customer behaviour and risks, and that’s a critical part of providing excellent customer service.”
