"While there’s no single right way to write a CV, certain principles consistently stand out. Drawing on our experience with clients, we’ve outlined key guidelines to help you present your skills effectively and meet employer expectations."
Create a winning CV
Your CV is the gateway to an interview. It showcases your capabilities, achievements, and experience, so it’s vital that it reflects both you and the role you’re applying for.
Employers often prefer to see a CV in its original style, as it highlights your communication skills and personality. For this reason, when submitting your CV, we keep the layout and content intact, simply transferring it to a branded document before converting it into PDF.
If you need a starting point, we can provide a professional CV template; just contact us for a copy.
