In our previous blog article we touched
on some general ‘GOOD LOOKING’ CV tips. Here are a few more points to keep in
mind.
Personal details: Make sure that your name is clearly stated.
It does however not have to be in a huge font size and take up an entire A4
page. JC Smith is not your full name unless you want to be addressed
as JC. If however your legal names are June Cindy Smith then type it out as
just that. The name you want to be called first (if it is not your legal name
then put it in brackets) and then any other names and then your surname- in
this order.
E.g. (Sunshine) June Cindy Smith: if
you want to be addressed as Sunshine
E.g. June Cindy Smith: if you want to
be addressed as June
Contact details: Make sure that your contact telephone number,
email address and your physical address (including province!) is at the start
of your cv, clearly visible. Your recruiter does not want to have to
search for these details.
*remember the 30 seconds rule*
