How to write a CV
People generally underestimate how important a well written CV is. It's a candidates first contact with a prospective employer and it's important to remember that when it comes to your CV looks really do matter. Essentially your CV is a passport to getting a job interview.
A well written CV can make your VISIBLE, a bad one can make you invisible.
The fundamental points to writing a good CV are:
-
Identifying what an employer wants from a candidate.
-
Identifying what you can offer the employer.
-
Writing a good CV that matches the above two points as closely as possible.
