How to put a good resume together to get a job in Liverpool..
Producing a decent CV is an absolute essential when it comes to finding a new job, the first thing that your employer will see is your CV so its important that it makes an impression when it lands in the in box. Imagine that your CV is a sales letter selling a product and the product is you, your skills qualifications and experience, it’s the first step towards your new career. If you CV dose not impress then you will fall at the first fence and will not make it to the interview stage.
There are countless resources available to help you write a good CV, some paid and some are for free. The local job centre will gladly help you put a CV together for free if you pay them a visit; you can also use a ready made CV template. You can find dozens of CV templates on various web sites most are free but some are a paid option. Software programs like micro soft word has a number of templates that are customizable so you can tailor the CV to your own needs.
The content of your CV is also massively important and is the key to making it to the interview stage. The interviewer is looking for the ideal applicant for the job on offer, so you CV will have to be tailored to suit the position that you are going after. By no means fill your CV with a load untruths and inaccurate information it just means tailor the CV for each of the positions that you apply for, remember you have to meet there criteria.
produce a CV that is crystal clear and straight to the point, it has to detail your work experience, your qualifications and a section about yourself again there is a ton of information circulating on various web sites on line on how to produce a good CV and what type of content to include so a little research could pay dividends. Here’s another tip that I picked up from a company director who was advertising for a job, he had received a number of applications for the role on offer but the applications that had arrived in the in box in a brown envelope went straight in the bin un-opened. I don’t know if this was just an occurrence with this particular company or a standard practice, but to be on the safe side use a white envelope. With very few jobs in Liverpool and across the country right now every angle of your job search should be covered, remember it’s a buyer’s market that is not in favour of the applicant. Even if you are applying for part time jobs in Liverpool and the job isn’t really skilled still make the effort as there probably will be a whole bunch of applicants for the role.
