Tips for an effective CV

Your CV is your principal marketing tool. There are a number of elements essential to presenting your CV in the best possible way.

The CV should contain information that is complete, yet concise and to the point, and ideally be no more than two pages long. The dates of employment should be correct – preferably showing both the month and year of employment.

Please do a spell and grammar check, and avoid using special fonts, abbreviations and acronyms.

Make sure your CV is accompanied by a head & shoulder photograph in JPEG format – preferably showing a smile.
