Why is it important?

Having a strong CV is essential, as it is one of the ways you will tell future employers what you can bring to their company or organisation, and will determine whether they invite you for that all-important interview!

You will mainly use your CV to apply for new jobs, but you may also use it for:

• An internship
• Volunteer work
• Work experience

It is likely that future employers and recruiters will be reading many CV’s at any one time, so it’s really important that you make yours stand out from the crowd!

CV’s are usually a maximum of two pages long, with a standardised format. Download our help-sheet from our ‘Materials’ tab to learn more about your CV structure, and what to include.
