CVs & Résumés: Get Them Right to Get the Job

After a young person completes their education, whether that is immediately after high school or following extensive study at university, their primary ambition is to obtain full-time employment. Although opportunities for graduates have never been greater, competition for jobs has never been tougher, which makes it essential for any candidate to put their best foot forward when applying for work.

The first mission of any job applicant is to ensure that they have a CV that is up to date, accurate and word perfect. Shocking as it may seem, many applicants are closing the door to employment on themselves because of substandard CVs with needless mistakes such as incorrect spelling and poor grammar.

It contains phrases to avoid, mistakes to look out for and the vital information to include, all within the one visually appealing graphic. Check it out below!
