I think you should chronologically arrange your qualifications according to their dates PROPERLY... Lastly, check your spellings scrupulously e.g ''... boasting record integrity by 95%", I think the word should be BOOSTING. You don't want to tell your interviewer that you can't spell or proof read properly. Cool achievements by the way... #DropsPen 2 Likes |

Your CV Is good bro the only error I'm seeing is 2nd of March.... Your 'nd' must be on same level with the '2' since you are referring to a 'Date' and not a 'position'.... Then there is no need for the 'of'... Your Date should look like this.. (2nd March, 1993) be mindful of the comma(,) after 'March' it is very important. 2 Likes |

Your cv should be adaptable, that is, Try to include relevant experiences depending on the job you are applying for. Or depending on the organisation you're applying to. Don't just cram everything on it. Instead of his stating the functions you performed under each job, State your achievements instead and quantify them if possible. 3 Likes |

Thank you for taking out time to reply, please I need few clarifications Sixkobo:I apply for virtually the same type of jobs (accounting jobs only), I guess I won't really need to be changing my mission statement? What do you think of my current mission statement? Sixkobo:I don't know why I don't like this part, probably because of the passed judgement without any evidence. Thank you anyway. 1 Like |

Chicjennie:Not really an explanation though, I made my CV public, so in as much as it is not a sensitive question, I can decide to give an answer. Even though it has no DIRECT relationship with my CV's focus, it's still a strong point(in it own way). It show a lot, like: long time market familiarity, etc 2 Likes |

Nice layout with good action words/verbs. You could as well move your linkedin profile just below your email address above. And aside your current work experience, using 'past tense' to describe your previous work would be ideal while maintaining your action verbs; thus Prepares > Prepared, Manages > managed etc. Like someone earlier suggested, highlighting your achievements/accomplishment rather than duties is ok. All the same, nobody is perfect. Take every correction(s) and constructive criticism as a motivation towards being better. Don't forget: God First in everything. Best regards 2 Likes |

1.Why not put the LinkedIn address and Website at the top along with your name & address. For international jobs scrap the Personal data. 2. For the Work experience, you can start with power words in past tense...e.g Managed, designed, audited... ATS sometimes pick up these words...2a...more like job description... You can put your achievements in the 2 page along with your work experience..and few bullet points..3 bullet point should be enough. 3. You can also write some of the words in Full:...Oct- October. /Admin.. 4.Lovely profile summary, but try to be more specific.. 5. Education qualifications and certification lovely. 6.Your can change the Transferrable skills title to something like Technical Skills/ Additional skills. 7.Coreldraw instead of Corel draw - no space... Web design...avoid too much -ing.. 8. Achievements should be at the top before work experience or integrate into your work experience.. 9. Character deposition.. You can leave it but not really necessary. 10. For the interest, You can make IT interest and activities..blogging, book review and contributor to spiceworks magazine..etc 11. Add the references or scrap available on request. Not really necessary nowadays. Overall, fantastic CV. 2 Likes |

Op there is no good or bad way of writing a CV/resume anywhere, trust me people will keep on suggesting this and suggesting that to u. But one thing u need to do is make sure you check your spellings well, use the right verb and u will be fine. 2 Likes |
