Hi guys,
Welcome to our very first Post on writing CVs.

According to wikipedia

A curriculum vitae (English: /kəˈrɪkjʊləm ˈviːtaɪ, -ˈwiːtaɪ, -ˈvaɪtiː/)[1][2] (often shortened CV or vita) is a written overview of a person's experience and other qualifications for a job opportunity. It is akin to a résumé in North America. In some countries, a CV is typically the first item that a potential employer encounters regarding the job seeker and is typically used to screen applicants, often followed by an interview. CVs may also be requested for applicants to postsecondary programs, scholarships, grants and bursaries. In the 2010s, some applicants provide an electronic text of their CV to employers using email, an online employment website or using a job-oriented social networking service' website, such as LinkedIn.

 A curriculum vitae, commonly known as a CV, is an alternative to writing a resume to apply for a job. While a resume is typically a page or two in length, a CV is more detailed and longer. A CV often contains more information on one's academic background than a resume.

How to write a successful covering letter

How to write a successful covering letter Why do you need a covering letter? “My pet hates: incomplete and inaccurate application forms, no covering letter, poor grammar and spelling, careless handwriting and letters written on scrap paper” Partner in firm of solicitors. The covering letter is vital to your CV.  This is why it is the first page and not an addition. "Please find enclosed my CV" won't get you very far. Your covering letter  demonstrates your writing style  better than your CV (which is usually more brief and factual). The covering letter puts flesh on the bare bones of the CV.  It points out to the employer the information showing that you have the qualities the job calls for, and makes a statement about yourself and your suitability for the job. It should give the personal touch that your  CV  will intrinsically lack. A  survey in the US of employers  found that 42.9% wanted candidates to...

Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains. Steve Jobs Research by recruitment consultants  TheLadders research found that  selectors take about 6 seconds before they make an initial 'fit or no fit' decision" on candidates. The research tracked eye movements of 30 recruiters over ten weeks to record and analyse where and how long they focused. In the limited time spent studying the CVs recruiters looked at your name, current title and company, current position start and end dates, previous title and company, previous position and education. They found that it was important for CVs to have  a clear visual hierarchy and no distracting visual elemen...
