Open for business and 100% remote working. Could this be the perfect time to dust off your CV and get it reviewed? All initial reviews are free of charge with no obligation :-) #jobsearch #jobseekers #CVsuccess #applywithconfidence

Is your personal social media damaging your job prospects? Could your politics or opinions be putting employers off? Always check your FB privacy settings because employers certainly will! #toprecruitmenttips

"I need to include information about my previous responsibilities on my CV".
No you don't! Employers are only interested in achievements and skills, so declutter your text and keep it simple! #recruitmentmyths

@BorisJohnson I want a future that you're not in.

[Ali @ Let Me Write (CVs) @letmewriteCVs]

@Trotty_Bear @TheHornyHaggis @BorisJohnson I note you say 'your' prime minister. Not yours then?

[Ali @ Let Me Write (CVs) @letmewriteCVs]

@BorisJohnson Day 2 of your disingenuous campaign of lies that relies heavily on the uneducated? Don't choke on your coffee.

@BorisJohnson I'm sure Labour will accomplish that and more when they win the next GE :-)

[Ali @ Let Me Write (CVs) @letmewriteCVs]

@BorisJohnson Don't be wilfully ignorant. The referendum was an advisory vote and we want a second one on the basis of new information. Not delivering the 2016 outcome has no impact on democracy... unlike proroguing parliament.

'Age is a protected characteristic under equality law and employers can't take it into consideration when shortlisting candidates' No, they can't... but how would you ever know? DOB has no place on a modern CV in the UK... make sure you're not over sharing! #recruitmentmyths

A lovely 5 star review from Constantinos in Athens 🥰
"This is the second project that I worked with Ali. Once again the result was superb. She is there in every step of the project to answer your questions and assist in every way she can. I highly recommend her!" #CVGuru

"There's no point me applying because the employer is asking for degree level education and I don't have one." Rubbish! Don't be put off by not having EVERY requirement on the job description. Optimise your CV so that the skills you DO have make you SHINE 🌟

@BorisJohnson If you trust us to make the decision then put it to the public! #secondreferendum
Here's a hint though... you might lose!

[Ali @ Let Me Write (CVs) @letmewriteCVs]

Infographics on a CV - yes or no?

It's a no from me... tables, charts, pictures and graphics are more often than not missed by Applicant Tracking Software and can do more harm than good!

I hate the phrase 'doer rather than achiever' which is so liberally sprinkled around by CV writing companies. If you've had a review that told you this PLEASE don't panic, it's total twaddle and it's designed to prey on insecurities. I promise never to use it! #recruitmentmyths

[Ali @ Let Me Write (CVs) @letmewriteCVs]

What personal interests do you have that would add value to your CV? How do they link in with your personality, skills and personal development? Does walking your dog and socialising with your friends even count? Should you include YOUR hobbies or not? #keywordvscliche
