Cv: Format Or Content. Which Gets The Job? by Nobody: 9:30am On Aug 15, 2015
I've been wondering why we graduates pay more attention to CV Formats. In my opinion, I think we should be having sleepless nights over Content. undecided (I assume we understand what I mean)

So Fellow Joblanders, what do you think?

Both.. Your CV should be readable and lucid and at same time have essential details about you. .

Content without a good format doesn't make sense because the HR may not read and understand your message. .
Then a nice format without details about what you can offer doesn't make sense either. ....

Both in my opinion.

Good content that is not well organized will make your CV end up in the trashcan undecided

So pay more attention to the content not forgetting the format as well.

For an advertised job, both sounds good but will still give content a more preferential treatment than format.
