Helpful Hints

Preparing a CV one of the first things to understand is that potential employers use CV’s to screen out unsuitable candidates as well as to shortlist those with potential.

Your CV must therefore demonstrate the value you have added to your current and previous employers , irrespective of your job function , and you must be seen to be a benefit rather than a cost to a future employer.

Here are some suggested do’s and dont’s to consider in preparing your CV :
