I have heard from a number of people who talk about Post-NYSC depression and how confused, frustrated and depressed they get immediately after NYSC. The truth is being jobless can be very depressing. The longer you stay at home, the more disrespect you'll get from neighbours and sometimes even family members. You'll wake and you'll hear things like, "Lekan, won't you go and look for a job?"

Some of you will be done with your National Service soon. P.O.P is on Thursday. Congratulations in advance. God will come through for you. You'll get a job and you'll not be depressed. However, here are a few advice I can give you;

Fix your CV
Draft out an outstanding Cover Letter
Create a LinkedIn profile
Attend Networking events
Pray to God

I have spoken to a number of people lately who aren’t getting interviews and who can’t figure out what the problem is. They tell me that they know their CV and cover letter are fine (and often people have looked those over for them and verified that), and they can’t figure out what they’re doing or have done wrong.

The simple truth is this; many CVs/resume are written really badly (content and structure). To you, your CV might look top-notch but to a Hiring Manager, he/she cannot spend more than 5 seconds with it because of the first impression gotten from it. The people who told you that your CV or cover letter were fine were very wrong as they didn’t have the experience or the insight to know what would make a really great CV or a cover letter. And as a result, you have been applying with mediocre materials which will not get interviews, and you are frustrated because you can’t figure out why.

I can help you out with this issue. Send an email to me at rewritemycv01@gmail.com and attach your current CV. I'll personally give you feedback on what and what you can do to get it better.

Wish you all the best.

Please endeavour to attach your CV/resume when sending me an email as I have received a couple of mails without any attachment.

Cheers.

A well-done CV is a must for those who take their career seriously. Word choice, format, structure, keywords, section and design – everything matters for making an impression on a hiring manager. Moreover, your career and your goals constantly change, and so should your CV. That’s why the successful applicants often hire CV rewrite company.

However, it’s difficult to be objective about your own CV. You might need a serious CV update without even realising it. Although a good CV isn’t everything you need to get a job, without it, your chances for a fast and effective employment significantly drop.

1. You haven’t updated your CV for over 5 years
2. Your CV looks worse than those you browse through Google
3. Your career level has changed
4. You need targeting for a specific job opening
5. You are making a career change
6. You don’t have a clear strategy of what to include in your CV
7. Your CV brings no interviews
8. You haven’t updated your list of skills for a while

A quality CV reflects how your career goals change and expertise grows, and is written under the right angle to sell your strength. A CV needs to be rewritten quite often these days to match the needs of the changing labour market as well. If you need a guide to change your CV according to your new career goals and make it attractive for employers, you can contact me here. You’ll get a brand new CV written according to your needs, and it won’t cost you a bomb.

Do you prefer rewriting your CV on your own or would you rather hire me? You can email me at rewritemycv01@gmail.com

Happy Easter Celebrations!

Your CV is your opportunity to sell yourself to a hiring manager, so it’s important you make it work for you. They can be very different depending on the job you’re chasing, but there are some basic advice that can be applied to most people.

1. Layout
If you’re looking at jobs in the creative industries, a one page CV with an interesting design is likely to have more impact than a bog standard Word document.
In general, try to avoid a cluttered page, with very long sentences and no discernible order.

2. Language
This is another area which should be tailored to the specific industry you’re applying to. For instance, you’re likely to use much more formal language when chasing a job as a lawyer than you would applying for a job as a photographer.
Don’t be afraid to throw in some specific lingo related to the job industry, but don’t make your entire CV a page of jargon. When making claims on your CV, such as “boosted sales figures” make sure you quantify such statements, how much did you boost sales by?
Put the most important elements required by the job at the top of the CV, such as work experience. This is usually followed by your education, but if you need a specific qualification for the job you’re after, you might consider placing it nearer the top. The same can be said if it’s your first job after graduating from university.

3. Work experience
If you’ve got a lot of work experience, think about which of it is most relevant to the job you’re applying for. For these roles, include more details and achievements and list them towards the top of your CV, you can place any extra work under “other work” nearer the bottom of your CV – it’s important not to leave any gaps.
Where possible, explain what you learned when doing each role.

4. Hobbies and interests
Most people put these right at the bottom of the CV, but they are a great way to show off your individuality and other skills that might not be obvious from your work experience and qualifications.
Try to avoid the clichéd, hobbies, such as “watching television” – who doesn’t enjoy watching television? Instead, include things which show that you’re a more rounded individual – such as a hobby you’re particularly passionate about, whether that’s fishing, rock climbing, photography, crafting or cooking.
Maybe you’re a member of a club or organisation, that shows dedication, loyalty and team work, so include things like that too.

Thanks

You're welcome.

stevenakp:
What kind of achievements will I list when I've not worked anywhere ?

even to write a good CV you need a Job.

Good morning... How you package your CV is very important. The fact that you have not worked anywhere doesn't mean you have never done anything. Back in school, you must have volunteered on a project or done some community work or must have done something else entirely that is worth putting down on your CV. You might think it doesn't count but some companies would definitely think otherwise. You honestly do not need a job to write a good CV, you need the right information to make your CV look good to the reader. There are entry level positions in different companies and some obviously know that applicants wouldn't have previous experience. The key to getting such jobs is by sending them a well detailed and structured CV to push the reader in having a discussion with you.

Cheers.

aalebiosu:
Very enlightening.

Thank you.

Yes sir. I get your point. I also did not mention that there was a difference between Standing Out and Achievements. What I said was that Experiences aren't classified as Achievements. To stand out, you need to outline your specific achievement(s) in those experiences.

For example; Here are two instances

Applicant A: I worked as a Sales representative in 5 different companies in the last 5 years.
Applicant B: I worked as a Sales representative in my last job and I managed to increase productivity by 15%, saving an additional $20,000 in a one year period.

Applicant A has much more work experience but Applicant B has outline his achievement in his last job making him stand out.

Imagine you’re a prospective employer. You have one vacancy, 50 CVs to read and only a few minutes till your next meeting. Where do you start and how do you figure out who to call for interview?
Here are five critical questions a recruiter will ask him or herself – and how to make sure your CV can answer them.

Who is applying?
The correct answer isn’t your name. A recruiter needs to have an idea about who you are, as quickly as possible so make sure that you include a profile of yourself. It can be called Career Summary, Personal Profile or Career Objectives.

How good are they really?
Listing universal transferable skills isn’t the same thing as proving you have them. Especially if you’re using the same laboured descriptions as everyone else. Avoid CV clichés (self-starter, team player, highly motivated). Show where you have made a difference in your most recent jobs.

Is this CV unique?
This doesn’t mean ‘is the CV printed on glossy paper and does it have a photo of the candidate?’ In recruitment, ‘unique’ means submitting a well structured and detailed CV that is specific to the job you’re applying for. Think about your strengths; what are you best known for? What is your point of differentiation? What can possibly make you an asset for the company?

Where are the achievements?
Experience isn’t the same as achievement. Don’t just list where you’ve been and what you’ve done, show the recruiter how you stood out. If you can include an ‘achievements’ section then it can make an instant and dramatic difference to the power of your CV, enabling you to distinguish yourself from other candidates.

Why am I still reading this?
This is not a question you ever want someone to ask while holding your CV. Thankfully, there’s a way around it. Give more attention to the first half page than any other part of the document. Say the things that matter early on, while you’ve got the reader’s attention. Your profile is the most important part of the CV and your current job is vastly more important than what you were doing five or ten years ago.

Ohk.. Actually, I need help on how to write a good CV.

If you want to fix your CV or you need to learn how to write one. The best place to start is Google. The second best is contacting a friend or colleague who can help you out. If you've tried both and still need assistance, you can just let me know right here and we'll get to work. All the best �

Nwaohafia1:
Forget all these.

In life, WHO you know may be more powerful than WHAT you know.

Very true. I agree with you that connection is much more powerful in getting a job. But then, what if you don't know someone to connect you with someone who works at where you'd like to apply for job. In that case, what you know can be of added advantage in your job application. If you know what they're probably looking for, then you can submit an application that outlines what they need.

Chukazu:
At the bolded ,what is the difference between your achievement and you standing out?

The fact that you've had 5 years of working experiences doesn't count as an achievement. What exactly is it that you did to ensure that productivity of the company grew by 5% for example. That is what you can regard as an achievement. That is what can make you stand out.

The truth is that some people have connections in getting jobs. Some people do not even need a CV/resume before landing a job where they'll be paid 200k per month. But then, majority of companies worldwide would at least request a document from you where they can at least see who has shown interest in their company. My brother, if you do not have strong connections, then build yourself well enough to get ahead with respect to your career. You don't necessarily need a CV to land a great job. However, in most cases, you do.

Xtine22:
but sir, my friend working and earning 150k has not written Cv be far.... maka y?

Among the many black and white CVs that are presented to the hiring manager, one that looks out of the box, naturally draws more attention

Nothing is more pleasing than an accurately formatted document. A neatly formatted document is easier to read and skip to areas that more important to the reader.

Hiring managers spend less than a minute reading your CV. They like to see information that would make a difference to them if they hired you. Ensure your Key achievements; your professional initiatives and critical skill sets are given due importance with maximum visibility. Making it easier for the hiring manager to assess your potential and call you for a face to face discussion.

You want a killer CV or a CV that kills with boredom? You decide!
