Curriculum Vitae Tips

Some Mistakes graduates make especially experienced Workers are as follows:

1)Putting Education history above work experience and listing both in chronological not reverse chronological order.
Recruiters want to see where you are currently working or your last position on the first page of your CV.

2) Unexplained gaps on your CV. It raises doubts in the recruiter’s mind which normally result in your CV not being shortlisted,unless you are an exceptional candidate whose CV stands out from all the other applicants.

3) Poorly formatted CVs with spelling and grammatical errors. These immediately turn off a recruiter and can lead to your CV being discarded even if you fit all the criteria for the role.

4)Not including a Professional or executive summary on the first page of your CV. Recruiters are not just looking for candidates with the right qualifications and experience,they also want to know about your personal qualities and key skills.

5)When you Email your CV to a recruiter , don’t just sent an attachment with no message or simply refer to where you heard about the job . Treat the message text like a short cover letter where you explain who you are and why you are applying for the job.

Another piece of advice, do not call the document just ‘CV’ or ‘Curriculum Vitae’ or ‘Resume’, make sure you include your name so that recruiters can find it easily when searching through their documents .

Most people make the mistake of sending their documents via their phones and the recruiter will see a prompt like ‘sent from an IPhone etc’. This is not a Professional way if you are serious in Landing a job.

Do you want to be a valuable intern & increase your chances of a permanent offer? Here are some tips from my @CapricornFM Interview with @Hlekanis .

For a company, internships are a “try before you buy” method. Think of your internship as a very long audition & interview.

1. To stand a good chance of getting a permanent offer, lay the right foundation. This is by having a goals discussion with your manager to understand what success looks like so you can target your efforts.

2. Be explicit about your desire for a full-time role at key intervals.

3. Be visible. Don't assume your manager knows what you're doing. Schedule regular check-ins to maintain momentum. During the check-in's provide; progress update on tasks, key accomplishments & support that you require.

4. Make a habit of asking for feedback from people you work with at the end of major tasks/projects, this will help towards your continuous improvement. Ask these 2 questions; What did I do well? What could I have done differently?

5. Keep track of your accomplishments, an intern portfolio of evidence is a great way to build a case of your value.

6. Deliver ALL your work with the same enthusiasm and eagerness, even the menial tasks.

7. Show initiative, if you come across a problem, make attempts to look for solutions first. When you escalate the matter to your boss, you can illustrate your problem-solving attempts.

8. In the same vein, do not be afraid to ask questions & for help when you need it. This shows curiosity & desire to learn. Harmonize between asking enough questions and pestering.

9. Put your hand up! Especially for tasks no one else wants to do. Sometimes those menial tasks can be a way to build a relationship with a manager.

10. If you're underutilised & feel bored because you're not being allocated work, have casual conversations to find out what colleagues are up to in your department. Make a list of tasks that can help with and ask your manager to get involved.

11. Develop an internal network. It is is not enough for you to be known by your manager only. Make it a point to have a coffee with employees from other departments in order to learn more about their role.
