Creating Your CV

Problem 5: You Don’t Commit The Time To It

When you are applying for a job you are asking a potential employer to make a major commitment in you.

In return for that commitment, surely it is not unreasonable to commit a good amount of time to writing a CV.

Creating Your CV

Problem 4: You Don’t Highlight Achievements

What recruiters and employers are looking for ultimately is evidence that you have achieved.

The best CV’s will be full of achievements.

Creating Your CV

Problem 3: You Write Too Much About What You Do

Responsibilities are important to give a sense of what you have done.

If all your CV focuses on is responsibilities you miss the point.

Creating Your CV

Problem 2: You Have The Wrong Mindset

You don't like marketing yourself.

You don’t want to come across as pushy or blowing their own trumpet.

This can sometimes lead to understating your value.

Creating Your CV

Problem 1: You Don’t Have A Structure

Structure might not be the most exciting thing about the CV.

At the same time it matters because when you think about structure, you focus on making the CV as easy as possible to read and digest.
