TELEPHONE INTERVIEW TIP: DRESS TO IMPRESS

Even though the person on the other end of the line will not be able to see what you are wearing, dress for an interview. Business attire will get you in work mode and in the right mentality to approach the call.

A common recruitment myth is that a CV should only ever be two pages. Yes, you need to keep
it concise and to the point but if it rolls on to three pages, that’s ok. There may be specific
requirements when applying for a position but in most instances a straightforward and traditional
CV will suffice

WRITING A NEW CV?

Set time aside – Block out a few hours and treat it like a job. If you’re only sparing the odd 10 minutes here and there, it will never get done and may feel like an impossible task.

Brainstorm – Think about your skills, previous roles, companies and even projects you have worked on, it will help you to remember what you did in your working past. Major projects, values, size, and your involvement will your make CV powerful.
