I create CVs that get results!
You must have a CV. Whenever you apply for a job you see advertised, or register with an agency, the first thing they will ask for is your CV. It’s a marketing document and its whole purpose is to sell you and get you to interview.
An effective CV will get you shortlisted. How effective is yours? With over 20 years experience in recruitment Denise can give you candid feedback and help you create a CV that generates results.
I have seen literally thousands of CVs as part of my recruitment work, and far too many end up in the reject pile because they are not doing what they should be doing – getting you into interview.
The advice I provide is practical and relevant. I have been short-listing candidates since 1989 and helping people create CVs since 1997.
Too many people fail to tailor their CV to the job they want, they haven’t updated them and there is a lot of irrelevant data.
There is a lot of free advice on the internet, and companies who offer to produce your CV with widely varying prices. Some companies are secretarial companies who will utilise a template. These are often not much better than you can do at home. Others will charge up to £600 and will provide a fantastic CV but what happens when you need to change it? You won’t have learnt the skills of CV writing and will be back in touch.
Before you do anything else, go and get your CV. Look at it objectively – be honest and critical. Would you shortlist you?
