• Remember the layout of your cv is as important as the information provided. The layout and style can only be finished when you have a particular job in mind.
  • Make your cv easy to read – you can use microsoft word wizard or design your own layout, using fonts that are clear.
  • Try not leave too many gaps in your cv. Put down job titles and some bullet points to describe job descriptions. Make sure you have included Educational Details/Employment History/Interests & Hobbies/References.
  • Try and keep your cv to 2-3 pages, remember the companies don’t have time to read an essay!!
  • When listing previous jobs, start from most recent backwards, so they will see your most recent work first.
  • If you are posting a cv, send in an A4 envelope, don’t fold.
  • If you have a good working knowledge of variouse microsoft packages, and other computer packages, make reference to this on your cv.
  • Remember- how you present your cv will have a bearing on whether or not you get short-listed for a job.
