Remember when sending your CV:
(1) We do NOT need a long winded intro letter where you tell us how perfect you are for the job.
(2) Make it MS office friendly.
(3) Choose a font that is clear and a decent size.
(4) Use spacing correctly to make for easy reading.

Neat, precise and well set out is the only way to go when creating the perfect CV

When sending out your CV to apply for jobs ensuring that it gets read is key ! Each job ad gets 100’s of applications which can lead to a very tired, very grumpy recruiter who loves his/her delete button !!!

Therefore please remember:

- We do NOT need a long winded intro letter where you tell us how perfect you are for the job. If your CV is right you will be called in

- We must be able to OPEN your CV – Make it MS office friendly, do not have all sorts of security codes on it, and don’t minimise it.

- Choose a font that is clear and a decent size
– Calibri or Arial set at 10 or 11 is perfect

- Stick to black. Using colours may make the hard copy difficult to read so we may not read it.

- Use spacing correctly. Squashing all your information onto a page does not make for easy reading!!

- In some instances standing out because the document is different and creative is a good thing, however, this is not the case with your CV !!

Neat, precise and well set out is the only way to go when creating the perfect CV

Your CV is vitally important as the first step to getting your dream job. However after looking at 1000’s of CV’s, over 19 years, I am often shocked at the quality of those sent to me.

Over the next couple of weeks I will give you some “insider scoop“ which will ensure your CV gets read and you get booked for an interview.

The first impression is a lasting one so remember :
-Choose your photo carefully if you intend using one. We have seen brides, hipsters, divas and football stars. These images do not endure you to us!

-Your Facebook profile picture does not impress us but it will probably make us laugh, not the response you are going to benefit from in the long run.

-A clear good quality passport photo that looks like you at the time of submitting your CV is all we need.
