Planning a successful CV

Planning a successful CV

Pauline Gatimu

  1. Be absolutely honest with yourself about what you want to do in life and what types of role you enjoy. Think about which roles you are suited to through your skills, qualifications ,experience and personality.

You may not necessarily secure your ideal role immediately but knowing what you are aiming for and being able to articulate your career goals will make you a more plausible candidate, not from your cv but in the event that you are successful in getting to the interview stage.


2. Spend time getting to know individuals already employed in that sector or role, find out how they got into their role. I don't mean you go round asking people what they do or what their role is but you can still do ?? what i mean is thoroughly research the company or sector you are interested in.

An awareness of current issues within the sector of interest to you will place you in a good light with a potential interviewer as well as helping you understand what types of achievement will be of particular interest in a CV.


3.Invest time in understanding what a potential employer is looking for when they publicize a job vacancy .

Although it is tempting to manipulate the description of your skills and experience to those requested ,any gaps are likely to be identified by a competent interviewer, or when you actually start in the role.

That's why our first point was, be honest with what your searching \looking for simple .??


4. Keep your skills and experience current while you research your nest career step. Even if you are already in a role and looking to move internally to a different role. It is vitally important that you are seen as proactive in the progression and ownership of your own career.


5. Last but not least, seek feedback from friends and family as to what they see as being your strengths as well as areas that you may need to work on. And tell them to have an honest opinion yeah.

Having and admitting to, aspects of performance you need to improve is absolutely acceptable.
