About this title

Synopsis

It is no longer enough to send employers mass-produced letters and CVs with vague details of hobbies and interests. Employers want to know what skills you have, how much personal commitment you have and if it will be worth training you in the long-term. This book aims to show step-by-step how to tackle job applications, how to decide what you are really offering, and how to sell this effectively to your future employer.This revised edition includes these changes to law and standard changes for employers arising from the 1995 Disability Discrimination Actimpact on recruitment of the Age Discrimination Code of Conduct and new requirements regarding the disclosure of criminal convictions for specific types of employment. Internet recruiting is also discussed along with trends in information requested on application forms.
