Lioness Le Tissier revisits Guernsey roots to inspire new players

Four young footballers from the Guerney's St Martin's AC have had the chance to meet Lioness Maya Le Tissier. The Guernsey-born member of the England women's national football team - the Lionesses - wore the shirt of her first club, St Martin's, while training at Staffordshire's St George's Park with her teammates ahead of next month's Euros in rest of the squad also wore kit representing the teams that gave them their individual start in sport. Among the budding players to visit Le Tissier was nine-year-old Olivia Cooper, who described the day as "amazing", adding that she hoped to be as good on the pitch as her idol one day. The Lionesses were all wearing the shirts of their formative clubs to reflect on their own humble beginnings and to help inspire a new generation of young players."Maya is my favourite and it was really cool seeing her wear a St Martin's shirt," said Olivia, who was there with her mother Nikki."I also got an England shirt signed by her and am going to get it framed and put it above my bed when I get home."Olivia added that one of her dreams is to play in the Muratti Vase, the annual men and women's football competition, inaugurated in 1905, between teams representing the Channel Islands."I want to be as good as Maya when I'm older," she said. During her celebrated career, 23-year-old Le Tissier became the first person from Guernsey to win an FA Cup final in nearly 65 was centre-back for Manchester United Women's team when they beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 at Wembley Stadium in May 2024, and she proudly carried the island's flag when she climbed the steps to receive her last time someone from the island won the trophy was in 1959, when Bill Whare helped Nottingham Forest beat Luton Town 2-1.

Voice is the New Resume: PitchMeAI Launches AI That Crafts Job Applications From 30 Seconds of Speech

In a job market flooded with hundreds of applications per opening, this startup claims its voice-powered tool gives candidates a surprising edge, slashing resume creation time and bypassing application black holes. United States, April 15, 2025 -- Users can forget about staring at a blank screen or wrestling with clunky templates. PitchMeAI just dropped a bombshell on the traditional job application process: the world's first Voice-to-Resume tool. In a move set to shake up the recruitment tech space, the company claims users can now generate a polished, professional resume simply by speaking for 30 seconds. In today's hyper-competitive job market, where premier roles attract an average of 250+ applications and 75% of resumes are reportedly rejected by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) before a human ever sees them, standing out is paramount. Job seekers often spend hours, sometimes days, agonizing over resume content and formatting. PitchMeAI argues its new technology obliterates this pain point. 'The reality is, writing a compelling resume is a barrier for millions,' says Olivia Cooper from PitchMeAI. 'Whether it's language difficulties, lack of writing confidence, or simply the sheer time drain, the process is broken. We're leveraging AI to level the playing field.' The premise is startlingly simple: Users talk for half a minute about their experience and skills. The AI listens, interprets, and structures the information into a ready-to-use resume, in any languages. PitchMeAI claims the underlying system is designed to be intuitive, accurate, and bypass the need for users to worry about keywords, formatting rules, or action verbs. It's positioned as a lifeline for everyone from recent graduates baffled by corporate jargon to seasoned professionals seeking a faster way to tailor applications. Available now on the PitchMeAI website, the tool aims to democratize access to professional application materials. 'Your voice, your experience – that's all you need to get started,' the company states. But the Voice-to-Resume feature isn't a standalone gimmick. It plugs into PitchMeAI's existing suite of tools, accessed via a Chrome extension, designed to combat job search fatigue and improve odds: 1. One-Click Tailored Resumes: Instead of manually tweaking resumes for every single job description (a task experts recommend but few have time for), the tool analyzes a job post and generates a customized CV emphasizing relevant skills and experience with a single click. This directly targets the ATS challenge. 2. Direct Recruiter Outreach: This feature plays detective, attempting to identify the hiring manager or recruiter behind a job posting. It then helps users draft and send a concise, personalized email, aiming to bypass the anonymous online application portal. 'Got a call back from HR thanks to the email I sent with PitchMeAI. I doubt they even looked at my resume,' claims Diana, a Product Manager based in SF. 'Wonderful instrument!' 3. AI-Powered LinkedIn Networking: Recognizing that upwards of 70% of jobs are potentially filled through networking, this tool assists users in finding relevant contacts on LinkedIn, identifying their email addresses, and even drafting connection messages – tackling the awkwardness many feel about professional outreach. Combined, these tools represent a significant intervention in the often grueling job hunt. 'This isn't just about building a resume; it's about building confidence and creating genuine opportunities,' Cooper adds. Users seem to agree. 'No less than a miraculous instrument! Super simple to use; you notice the outcomes in just an hour,' remarked Jack, a software engineer from New York. While free templates are also available, the core offering positions PitchMeAI less as a simple document builder and more as a strategic job-seeking companion. As the AI recruitment market continues its skyrocketing growth (projected to be worth billions globally by 2027), tools like PitchMeAI are betting that smart automation can give individuals a much-needed edge. The company emphasizes its mission to make job searching 'quicker, more intelligent, and less intimidating.' With features designed to tackle everything from writer's block to networking anxiety, PitchMeAI is making a bold claim: they're not just helping apply for jobs, they're actively trying to help get them.
