If an employer is looking for your CV in a pile, they need to be able to find your name easily, so use a larger font size for your name. A font size of between 18 26 pt. should be sufficient. Address This should be immediately under your name. It doesn't need to be large; it is only important if the employer likes the rest of your CV and needs to contact you. You should also include your contact telephone number ( landline, mobile or both ) and your email address. It's worth mentioning that your email address should not sound frivolous or unprofessional, preferably your name or similar,avoid nicknames. It may be worth setting up an email account just for job searching. It is fine to put your name and address as a block, but if space is a problem it is just as acceptable to spread it out as a letterhead. Have a look at the two variations below. John Lee Flat 5 Learning Centre Chamberlain Square 鶹Ƶ B3 3HQ johnlee@hitmail.com 07950 000 000 or John Lee Flat 5 Learning Centre, Chamberlain Square, 鶹Ƶ B3 3HQ Johnlee@hitmail.com 07950 000 000 Personal Profile DO NOT leave out this section on your CV. This should be a short paragraph providing a snapshot of who you are and your relevant experience. This means you need to change your profile when you are applying for different jobs. Tailor your Profile to match the Job/Person Specification of the job you are applying for. This takes time, but it is worth the effort. Your profile should be written in the third person, as if someone else was writing about you. This meansyou should not start sentences with "I am." Try to avoid overused phrases like "a good worker or using constant streams of adjectives to describe yourself. Anotheroverused phrase is "able to work on own initiative or as part of a team. Nearly everybody uses this phrase in their profile and employers are wise to this fact. Six to eight lines should be sufficient. Remember that what you write in your personal profile must make the employer want to read more. You should tell the employer what you have to offer. Have a look at the following examples: A proficient and versatile System Controller with office based experience of being a system user, and a clear understanding of both a perceived and actual role of computerisation in office life. Skilful at evaluating problems and communicating possible solutions, and capable of making a significant contribution to the efficiency of any organisation. A highly trained salesperson experienced in business-to-business sales and sales management, with a clear understanding of company structures and the decision-making process. A successful, profit-driven individual with a proven record of achievement, capable of making a significant contribution to the profitability of any employer. Key Skills This section is a bulleted list of your key skills. They must be relevant to the job you are applying for. This will mean changing the list if you are applying for different types of job. It may also be appropriate to include qualifications that relate to the job, but leave out items that are unnecessary. Your key skills list should ideally be between 6and 8 items long. Think about what the employer is going to want to read. Have a look at the job description or the person specification. If you are still uncertain what they are after, phone theemployerand ask. It's in the interest of the company to give you the information. Look at the two examples below: Administrative job Proficient in use of Excel, Access and Word 2007 Experienced in Sage Line 50 NVQ 3 in Business Administration Typing speed 40wpm Professional commercial correspondence Excellent interpersonal skills  Gardener / Groundsman Institute of Groundsmanship qualified Landscape gardening Garden design capabilities Turf laying PA1 & PA6 in pesticide use Bricklaying and light construction work Key Achievements This section is optional. If you have any major work related achievements, list between two and four in this section. They are best presented in a bulleted list. Major achievements can be awards e.g. Employee of the Month or an instance where you have added value to the organisation. These achievements should be quantifiable. For example; a salesperson who has increased the sales figures for that quarter, or if you have constructed a new work process that has improved the organisations performance. Yet further examples may be vocational qualifications obtained while in work, such as NVQs. Just as key skills must be relevant skills, key achievements must also be relevant to the job applied for. There is no point listing that you increased the sales margin by 15% over a six month period if you are applying for a job in caring! If you cannot identify any major achievements, omit this section. Employment History Your employment history should be presented in chronological order starting with the most recent employment. Always acknowledge any gaps of longer than six months in your work history. The layout of your employment history will depend on what type of CV you are producing. See the section on Types of CV. For both chronological and functional CVs, you must state the dates worked (month and year), the employer, location and the Job Title. See the example below. Sep 2007 - Jul 2009 Belvedere Industrial Fitters Glasgow HGV Driver Note: The Job Title is in bold, so that it stands out. This type of entry would be all that is required in a functional CV, because your main duties and experience would be covered in a separate section. A chronological CV entry would also include your current duties and these would be listed underneath the entry as the following example shows. Sep 2007 - Jul 2009 Belvedere Industrial Fitters Glasgow HGV Driver Heavy goods driver deliveringlarge machine parts and equipment on demand to all parts of the UK, ensuring compliance to all health and safety regulations when loading and unloading vehicle, completion of delivery documentation, responsibility for road worthiness of vehicle. Voluntary Work Any voluntary work undertaken can also be included at the bottom of this section. The layout should be the same as above. Education and Training Within this section, you should list your secondary education, your college and university studies, and any further training and qualification you have received since then. As with your work history, the most recent items should be listed first. Golden rules: Always put when and where you got your qualifications Never exaggerate your qualifications - if you don't have it, don't put it down. Don't write down every GCSE. Just say how many you got. The exception to this is English and Maths; it is beneficial to say that you have these. Only include vocational qualifications if they are relevant. Be aware that some awards, such as, Food Hygiene and First Aid only remain current for a specified period of time and then need to be renewed. Ensure the qualifications you list are all current. Have a look at the example below: Education & Training Sept 98 July 99 鶹Ƶ City College 鶹Ƶ Sales and Marketing NVQ Diploma Level 3 IT & Communication Technology Level 2 Sept 97 July 98 Adult Education Service 鶹Ƶ Advanced ECDL Sept 95 July 97 Sir Wilfred Martineau School 鶹Ƶ 7 GCSEs, including Grades A C in English and Maths Notice that the qualifications stand out, not the school or college. Interests and Activities Do not neglect this section. Your interests and activities will allow the employer to see a different side, and to get a better all round impression of you. The key to getting this section right is to be honest, enthusiastic and provide detail about your interests. Avoid bland statements, such as I like reading and music. Say what you like to read about or authors you like. What type of music do you listen to? Do you play an instrument? Do you have a large record collection? etc. Do not include activities that you no longer partake in just because you think they sound impressive. You may get caught at the interview! Avoid providing information that might prejudice the employer e.g. extreme religious or political interests. Do not include I like socialising with friends as this phrase could be misconstrued by the employer. There are other ways to demonstrate that you are a sociable person, for example, membership of clubs, societies etc. Think about other things you may be involved in, e.g. voluntary, charity or community work is always good to include here. References Simply state, References available on request. This is standard practice for CVs from the UK. The employer will only contact you for references if they are going to invite you for an interview or offer you the position, subject to suitable references being provided. The employer will usually ask you to provide two referees. It is common courtesy to inform your chosen referees that they may be approached to provide a reference for you. Give them a call and thank them in advance. Take the opportunity to remind them of all the duties you carried out, especially if you havent worked for them for a while. It could lead to you getting a better reference!
