The Perfect CV
|
|
|
The importance of a good
CV. A dull, mediocre CV will leave no lasting impression
on a potential employer. What the serious jobseeker
should focus on is the creation of the ‘perfect CV’.
This is a clear, concise, attractively laid out document
that speaks volumes about your abilities and your
determination to secure the job in question. What
employer would not want to meet the author of such a
document? |

The Cover Letter
|
|
|
A cover letter enables you to
personalise your initial application for a job. It
provides you with the opportunity to highlight
exactly why you fit an advertised job perfectly and
to direct a potential employer's eye to key
information within your attached CV. A good covering
letter will make the employer interested in reading
your CV and hopefully result in an invitation to
meet for an interview. |

The Interview
|
|
|
Your perfect CV has caught the
eye of an employer and you have been invited for an
interview. This is your opportunity to back up in
person all the interesting things the interviewer
has read about you. It is also worth remembering
that interviews are a two way process. You have
undertaken research on the company prior to making
your application to them, but the interview is your
opportunity to find out more about the company, meet
some of the people who already work there and
decided whether it is the type of place where you
would like to work. |
