In your search for employment, it is vital for you to know the information that is useful to your employers and present same on your CV.

Without further ado, outlined below is the list of 3 things employers hate to see on your CV.

1. INAPPROPRIATE EMAIL ADRESSESS: Email addresses such as tega2fine@yahoo.com and tinasexy4lagos@hotmail.com, should not be found on your CV. These email addresses does not portray you as a professional and as such, employers hate to see it on your CV. An example of email address that should be found on your CV is adebayojarvis@something.com.

2. DON’T ATTACH YOUR PHOTO TO YOUR CV: Please do not attach your photograph to your CV. Employers are always looking for reasons to screen out applicants; a photograph on your CV might create room for you to be screened out.

However, the exception to this rule is if the employer makes it mandatory that all applicants must affix their photos on their CVs.


3. POOR FORMATING:
All the information on your CV should be typed using the same font. A combination of fonts like century gothic, arial black, times new roman, etc, on one CV, should be avoided because, it won’t look attractive to your employers.

Contact address is no longer advised on CV's these days. Where is the secondary and primary school portfolio? The owner of the sample cv must be widely travelled.

There are three things I spotted wrong with the sample CV;
*Coloured mail address.
*poor formating(writing in italic)
*duration in your education not needed.(Ie 2001-2005)simply state when u graduated.

Even If, isn't it better than roaming the streets in search of a job? Isn't it better than learning how to beautify ones' CV? I wish I know a trade so well and could be self employed

I agree!
Re: 4 Things Employers Hate To See On Your Cv by nenergy(m): 6:28pm On Mar 23, 2016
Sincerely speaking, this CV is boring! Put your skills and experience first, we already know you're a graduate.

Please remove the curriculum Vitae. It's outdated!

Personal data takes too much space!

This is only valid in Nigeria. I have written a lot of CV for people in the UK, USA, and Australia. Adding email is a must for them.

"Curriculum Vitae " as the heading is a blunder! Your name should suffice.

Many employer of labour especially in the fashion world likes to see your passport attached on the CV. Also, if you want to go for a job of personal assistant or personal secretary, please do well to attach your beautiful passport cos it goes along way to qualify.you for the interview.
