Help With CV Writing in Kent & London
There are no two ways about it. How you promote yourself via your CV in today’s job market is of upmost importance to increase your chances of job success. It is YOUR sales tool. More often than not the same generic phrases can be found, meaning each CV blends into the next without being individual or memorable. Where employers are now receiving unprecedented numbers of CV’ you need to ensure that your own CV is catchy and appropriate thus keeping the reader engaged and interested.
Whilst working in recruitment over the years, a running theme we have noticed is that candidates can struggle to sell themselves appropriately via their CV. A strong personal profile is paramount as this tells the reader about you as an individual and also what you can bring to the table. We appreciate that it can be tricky listing your strengths and key skills. Many previous clients have stated that they find this hard as it is not something anyone likes to do for fear of sounding arrogant. Potentially this could mean you may sell yourself short.
Hear what Kate has to say about My Job Guru
She made use of our FREE CV evaluation service
"I was so impressed with my new CV I couldn't wait to send it out to local employers. Within no time at all I was suddenly being called in for job interviews, instead of being at the bottom of the pile. One company who recruit throughout the UK even told me they felt my CV was one of the best they had ever seen! Thanks so much My Job Guru!"
Here at My Job Guru our CVs have had proven success. Take Kate from Margate. She made use of our FREE CV evaluation service after sending her existing CV to many companies, but had not received one single call for interview. Although her existing CV contained good, basic information, it was not tailored to her desired industry and again, she had sold herself short by having a somewhat generic personal profile and failing to list many of her all–important key skills. After a telephone consultation with Kate we gave her the feedback on her existing CV along with a quote to re-write it. Kate gave us the go-ahead. We then adapted and updated her CV accordingly and emailed it back to her. Kate told us she was amazed at how quickly her fortunes changed.
