Top Tips for CV writing!

Top tips for writing a great CV

It’s all about first impressions...

  • Your CV is your most important selling tool and without a good CV you will not even get an interview.
  • Some CVs try to look “different” and this can frustrate the reader so keep the format simple and uncluttered.
  • Don’t put false information on your CV - reference checks and in depth questioning will confirm the accuracy of your statements.
  • Your CV will highlight your skills, experience and accomplishments, and a well presented CV is likely to encourage the company to actually interview you.
  • Try to limit the length of your CV to a maximum of three pages and include details on awards, memberships, courses attended, language and technology skills.
  • Remember that a short, clean and to the point CV has a better chance of being read all the way through.
