Its very important to make your CV attractive... Don't just list the schools you attended and all that without telling the prospective employer a little more about you that potentially benefits his business. Focus on certain parts, like your introduction, skills and achievements etc, even if you dont have experience. This can be overwhelming but spend some time on research to get you started. For instance, lets say you're looking for a sales job, your introduction could be "A graduate of Marketing with proven leadership qualities and exceptional ability to drive sales through Multimedia and target advertising campaigns". This tells me you may not have industry work experience but you have skills which i'll look out for in the skill areas of your CV. In your skill and achievement areas, tell the employer what you've achieved so far and what specific skill you've acquired. For instance, have you been part of a committee that organized a successful event? Do you know how to use social media to drive sales? You didnt just go to school to learn how to read and write, did you? Example achievement would be: Performed customer/market research and demographic profiling for a startup business to identify and capitalize on unmet market needs ahead of the competition 6 Likes |

Great piece. Especially for those who are still submiting CVs here and there. Please always take out your referee details otherwise requested. There are lots of scammers out there. If GNLD can mail you, guess what they can do with your referee details.

I don't agree with cutting down your CV to two pages especially when your experience speaks to the position being applied for. Of course,I'm referring to people with more than five years of progressive work experience. 1 Like 1 Share |

Herapal: If it is a second class honors and above, then indicate it to boost your CV, if not, leave it out and focus on your skills and achievements. Except for companies who want the best degrees from graduates, many other organizations mostly care about what you can achieve for their organization first before that. 1 Like |
