Why Pivot exists
The hardest part isn't losing the job.
It's the week you spend staring at a blank cover letter, turning yourself into a list of keywords while quietly wondering who you even are anymore.
Pivot gives you a real starting point in a day. Bring your CV, answer three honest questions, and get something true to work from. You get a draft with your actual voice in it, so you stay the author.
It won't do everything, and it isn't supposed to. It hands you back the pen.
How it works
Three steps, one honest picture.
-
Start with where you've been
Upload your CV as a PDF or paste the text. Any format, any mess. It's read once and let go.
-
Answer three honest questions
- What did you love about your work?
- What do you fear about interviewing?
- What level are you targeting?
Say it plainly. No one else will read it, and this is where the real signal is.
-
Read between the lines
Pivot hands back your reframe, your strengths, and the gaps worth knowing about. Add a job ad and see how well you fit, with a gentle line for each gap on how you might say it in the room.
Then make it yours
From a clear picture to the next real step.
-
Write a matching cover letterBuilt from your reframe and the job ad, in your voice, ready to edit.

-

-

- The tough questions
- Your first journey, on us
When you're ready to apply
Each journey covers two cover letters and two speaking practice sessions. Top up one or three at a time, or set a monthly recharge if you want a steady supply.
Unlock it once.
Then practice out loud as often as you like. It's on your iPad too, with the same Apple ID, so what you unlock is already waiting there.
The questions you're already asking
You're not the only one.
Am I too old for this?
No. The story you've been telling yourself about it might need work, and that's exactly where Pivot starts.
What if I don't know what I want next?
Then say so in your answers. Pivot works with what's true, even when it doesn't sound impressive yet.
Is it normal to feel this lost?
Completely. Your CV was never the problem. The identity underneath it was.
What if my CV is a mess?
Bring it anyway. Pivot reads whatever you give it, in whatever shape it's in.
What does it cost?
Your reframe, strengths, gaps and tough questions are free. Cover letters and speaking practice use journeys, and your first one is on us.
Can an app really help with this?
It won't write your story for you. It gives you something true to start from, and the writing stays yours.
Where Pivot came from
Pivot was built in the weeks after a layoff, by someone who got the call, stared at the same blank cover letter, and decided the next person shouldn't have to.
