Neroze:Your full names should be boldly written. That's the first thing the employer want to see. We already know that you are submitting your CV, writing "CV" boldly on top doesn't make any sense. Its one of the criteria that disqualify your application |

Nice compilation, though I would recommend putting a salary range, the minimum you can collect and a maximum, a 25% increase on your minimum. The reason for this is that, it would be mega annoying to pass an interview process, be offered the job (particularly one involving many phases) then offered a sum either less than what you currently earn, or if unemployed not sufficient to meet even daily needs. From experience shortlisting applicants: 1) never send a scanned copy of your cv I.e jpeg, jpg etc. ( it still amazes me that graduates do this) 2) check the format of your font, ensure you use one font, when you copy from the internet ensure you change the color, font and size. 3) your employment history should have at least the Company name, duration, job title and if possible brief jd. 4) I doubt the employer needs to know your height, state of origin(except it's a govt job), Lga, age (except otherwise stated). |

Your CV might be okay but it may not fit the job specifications at hand, your CV should always be tailored to the job role you are applying for this is in-order to portray yourself as their prospective employee. You should also not take the forces from your village lightly, above all GRACE is all that matters. Eddyken: |
