CV Writing Advice

Why do some people almost always get the job they want?

Because their CV wins them an interview and 99% don't!

"What about me?!"

Agency Central are pleased to be in partnership with The CV Centre, the UK's leading CV consultancy. A CV is often all a prospective employer has to judge you on, so it is absolutely vital to create the right first impression. Whether you've set your sights on winning promotion, moving to a different employer or simply regaining employment, your CV is the tool which will start you off on the road to success. It's one thing to find the job you're looking for but quite another to ensure that you are ultimately successful in winning it. Maximise your chances of getting the job you deserve! Please click here for further details.

We all know that CV writing is a controversial subject - part art, part science - and if you ask any two people their idea of the perfect CV, you will no doubt get two different and rather subjective responses. However, in consultation with The CV Centre, we have put together a number of do's, don'ts and common pitfalls, which most personnel professionals will agree on. If you bear these in mind when preparing your own CV, you stand a much better chance of surviving the 'CV cull'!

Length

Far too long - Probably the single biggest mistake people make when preparing their own CVs. The CV Centre recommends keeping your CV brief and cutting out the waffle. Two pages is generally the maximum, and for those with little experience one page generally makes much more sense. They also use other techniques such as bullet pointing, etc. to help make your CV easier to read.

Detail

Eliminate all unnecessary detail. Take a look at each piece of information you are thinking of including and think, 'Does this help your case?' If it doesn't then you should simply leave it out.

History

Try to concentrate on your recent history and summarise older information. Employers are definitely most interested in your latest achievements and positions.

Interests & Activities

A common mistake is to write far too much under this heading. With the CV trend moving increasingly towards the American résumé style, which precludes such a section, you should try to keep it to a minimum.

Professional Preparation

Even having taken the above points into account, writing your own CV can often be a daunting and time-consuming task. And it could be said that there really is no substitute for taking advantage of in-depth professional experience. The CV Centre is the UK's leading CV consultancy; their CVs are carefully crafted to have the strongest possible appeal to potential employers, rather than being just an uninspiring typed summary of your basic information. Their team of consultants also has a broad range of previous experience within recruitment, personnel and HR, which enables them to produce CVs of the highest standards.
