To get to an interview you need a CV / resume that
really catches the reader's eye. The layout must be clear and simple,
enabling the reader to find the information they need quickly. You
probably only have 20 to 30 seconds to attract the reader's attention.
So anything too elaborate, such as flowery borders will just detract
from your content.
It's vital that the words used in your CV / resume
really make the reader want to meet you and to invite you to that
all-important interview. Your CV / resume is your sales document
to a recruiter / employer and if it fails to sell you then it will
probably end up in the bin and hence no interview.
When you print out your CV / resume you must use a
good quality printer and paper. Always use a paper colour that is
easy to photocopy such as brilliant white, cream or vellum. The
CV / resume example below uses a white background to minimise the
amount of toner/ink that you will use if you print it out.
