Career change questionnaire with CV upload

People who want to change careers often cannot say why. This questionnaire asks for the current job and years of experience, what they enjoy most, what drains them, the role or field they would like to move toward and how urgent the change is. They can attach their CV as a PDF.

Who it is for

When to use it

Send it before the first session so you can read the CV and the answers together. The questions on enjoyment and exhaustion tend to bring out more than a plain list of jobs, and the urgency scale tells you how much time there is to explore.

The PDF your respondents receive

The PDF summarises the answers in order. The CV remains a separate file that you can open from the response page, so your records hold both the questionnaire and the document it refers to.
