CV Writing

Constructing Your CV

Use this strategy to package your CV. The purpose of a CV is to give a history of your employment, duties and responsibilities. List your accomplishments in these positions and your education. A good CV should act as a guide to the interview conversation.

It should be: Concise, only two pages long, easy to read - using dynamic words. It should be designed to give just enough information to get you on the interview list. It should have good layout, good grammar and be printed on quality paper.

Keep it relevant; forget about your memberships and golf handicap. Never mention salary expectations. Give it some flair, keep it up-beat and demonstrate your value to the company.
