- A Curriculum Vitae (CV) can be seen as your business card. All your potential future employers will view this document. A CV contains all the information that an employer needs to know such as your name, address, education establishments, study subject area/s, work experience and your skills.
- Your CV must give a clear first impression of your qualities and attributes.
- An employer will scan your CV for about 30 seconds before deciding whether to read further. Therefore, when writing a CV make sure you use language that is clear, that you use a simple font that is easy to read and that you ensure that there are no spelling or grammatical errors. You may want to get a friend or family member to check it for you.
- CV’s should not be longer than two sides of A4.
- If submitting a photograph with your CV, so be sure to attach a recent, presentable photograph (not one of you drunk in a nightclub!)
