Having a second check on your CV is important, which is by editing and correcting words or sentences that might indirectly or without you knowing, have a negative view of you to an employer. To achieve this, try removing contents with;

Long passive phases: Don’t put the reader (employer) to sleep. Make sure you write your CV in the present tense. Include lots of action words and be to the point.

Unrealistic accomplishments: Be realistic in your skill set, no one is an expert in everything. Plus, if you exaggerate your skills and experiences you’ll have to defend it in an interview.

Excessively technical information: Include what you know but don’t be fussy in your language.

Unrelated personal activities: You've no idea how the employer reviewing your application will react to your personal activities and hobbies so it’s best to leave them off (unless they’re relevant to the role).

Please share this on your wall to improve a jobseekers CV Branding.
