Why is this important? If you avoid these common CV mistakes you can potentially raise your chances of getting past the first hurdle to landing your dream job!
Takeaways:
- Please, please, check your spelling and grammar. Don’t put your complete trust in your PC’s ability to discover typos. Read backwards to spot issues with grammar. Treat this as a reflection of you. You wouldn’t turn up to your interview not looking your best, make sure your CV looks just as sharp!
- Keep your CV simple, and concise. Keep information shared relevant. No one wants to know what grades you got in primary school.
- Don’t underestimate the value of white space, as it can make your CV much easier to read. Give your qualifications room to breathe!
