Listing career achievements in your CV cannot be overemphasized. Till date many of us don't understand its relevance.

The career achievements you list on your CV totally varies in accordance to your profession. It is very important you get it right!

- If you are a sales executive searching for a sales/marketing job, the kind of career achievements recruiters want to see on your CV are sales targets you have met, volumes of sales you have championed, sales processes/software/channels you have mastered, regions you have covered, etc.

- If you are a project manager, recruiters want to see how many projects you have participated in, how many projects you have supervised to completion and if you beat the completion deadline, amount of funds you have managed for an entire project. e.g. can you supervise a project with a budget of N100 million or more?

- If you are an HR executive, recruiters want to read how many staff you have worked with, how many workers you helped interview, how much have you worked with in Payroll, what kind of policies you have helped prepared or enforced, etc.

Your CV is the only document standing between you and that job interview. If you prepare it right, you WILL get called.
