Our top tips ...
Clear & Concise:
The purpose of the CV is to get you an interview, it should not be an exhaustive list of everything you have ever done, but should be concise to ensure it has impact on the employer reading it.
Think Positive:
Your CV should reflect the facts of your employment and must sell your positive points and show what you have achieved in the job role. Your CV should present your capabilities and experience in up to three pages (no more), to make the employer want to find out more about what you have to offer.
Round peg, round hole:
Think about the job you are applying for and how your experience can benefit the role.
You can tailor your CV to meet a specific opportunity or job role, however this may not always be appropriate particularly when making a speculative approach to an organisation or agency.
