Candidate: I need help with my CV
Recruiter: Sure, let’s have a look
Candidate: I’m not getting any interviews at all, so something must be wrong

There are so many people sitting in this same situation where they drew up a quick CV or used some arb CV template that doesn’t really work.

They didn’t take the time to really draw up a proper CV to represent them and clearly states their experience and what they are looking for.

If you are looking for a new job, your 1st responsibility is to get your CV looking great – no, not all sorts of graphics and colours – it has to read easy and clearly state your experience as well as a small paragraph about what you are looking for.

You need to clearly state your skills and if in IT please mention your technical skills and not just: Hard working, team player, etc.

Put the time in to get your CV near as perfect.

Speak to someone who can have a look at your CV and give you advice.

You can’t start applying for roles is this step was overlooked. What will happen? You won’t get any interviews.

Looking for a new role is not easy, it is frustrating, but you can assist yourself by not missing this 1st step!
