| SUGGESTIONS TO WRITE A C.V. |
|
The first thing you must remember is that a Curriculum Vitae is a serious document and not an experiment
in surealist art. Would-be employers expect to find a CV written in a specific manner. They expect it
to follow certain predetermined guideline, to be easy to read and organised logically. Following the
advice and suggestions contained below will enable you to produce a professional CV simply and effectively.
- Always produce a rought draft of your CV. Always use a typewriter or computer for the final draft.
- Your CV should not exceed 2 pages in length and ideally it should be only one page.
- Including a passport size photo is not obligitry but is advisable.
- It should be presented in a clear, organised manner.
- The character size (fount size) you choose is important. It should not be so big that it forces you to use more than 2 pages but it should not be so small that you need a magnifying glass to read it.
- It is good practise to highlight the section headers in bold type and to leave extra spaces between paragraphs.
- Keep the left and right margin equal.
- Always spellcheck your CV. A CV that contains spelling errors is destined for the wastepaper basket!
- Always use clear unambiguious words. Highly technical words may look impressive but are apt to confuse the reader.
- Avoid complicated phrases. Simple phrases are always the best.
- Never take things for granted. Explain everything in a clear and concise manner.
- Never use abbrieviation unless is it absolutely unavoidable. It you have to use them always explain what they stand for.
- Never sign your CV, it´s not required.
- Always include a letter of introduction with your CV, especially if you are not delivering by hand.
- There are certain phrases and expresions that, when used correctly, will increase the impact of your CV or letter of introduction.
