Summarise My Career So Far as a Coherent Narrative
Your CV reads like a series of unrelated detours, and you half believe it. This finds the actual thread: the recurring interest, strength, or problem you keep circling back to, and turns the random-looking moves into a story that makes sense to you and to anyone hiring you. Most people are far more consistent than they think. For anyone whose path looks messier than it really is.
