- When writing a CV always write in the third person
- Write an initial summary of your mission statement (summary of your experience/your drivers/what you are looking for)
- Evidence your experience with achievements
- Be laconic and not too wordy
- Keep your CV to two pages maximum
- Do not pay an Agent, if using one, to write your CV (there are rules surrounding this – https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2003/3319/contents/made)
- If applying directly, read the advert – there are always clues in the advert
- Research the Company before applying
- Agents will do this for you – ensure the agent knows the Company well
- Be open to an interview from the Agent, as this is their job
- Look out for next week where we will give some interview preparation and advice
