Preparing for interview Hints & tips Questions
  Preparing a C.V....      

It is vital that you prepare a clear, concise and thorough CV/Resume.

This is normally the first request from a future employer and they will decide whether to proceed with an interview based on the contents of your CV/Resume.

Points to consider:

  • Make something about your CV different
  • Always provide a covering letter, maximum one page
  • Check grammar, punctuation and spelling
  • Use your name and page number as the header on the second and any subsequent pages
  • There are no 'rules' on the length of a resume, but we recommend 2 pages maximum (a 3rd for your references if you wish)
  • Make sure that columns, periods, dates etc. line up.
  • Use a good quality white or off-white paper and a good quality printer
