About this title

Synopsis

Recruiters may spend as little as 15 seconds when first appraising a CV; in the case of teenagers a survey in 'The Times' states this is 8.8 seconds. So gaining a quick and immediate impact is essential. This guide will show you how. Included are CV templates and advice on how to apply our CV writing techniques at all levels and across all disciplines. For those looking for entry level positions we cover: apprenticeship CV's; school leaver / recent student CV's; and graduate CV's.

Also we show you how to write a CV if you are looking for a change of career and transferable skill based functional CV's. Highly practical in nature, this is a guide you will keep in a safe place ‘just in case’. Andrew, the author, has literally written hundreds of CV's for people and currently works with organisations making redundancies as an outplacement consultant, often writing / rewriting up to eight CV's in a day. In addition he is highly regarded by organisations working on government contracts supporting the unemployed and has trained the trainers working with unemployed individuals for major training providers on DWP (Department of Work and Pensions) contracts, passing on his skills on both CV writing and job hunting, the CV style which he promotes also adopted by two major contract holders and used with over thousands of individuals in the UK. Quotes from individuals Andrew has worked with testify to his CV writing skill “Just wanted to say thank you for your help, my new CV format got me an interview... which led to a new job”; “I am contacting you because I want to thank you for the great job did you on my C.V. I am very happy to inform you that I am currently working at xxx I am so happy to back to work and it is all because of you"; “I just wanted to say Thank you for your help with the CV, with it I managed to get the job I wanted out in Dubai”; "I completely altered my CV and received 3 interviews and 3 job offers”. As stated earlier - this is a guide you will want to keep in a safe place 'just in case' and for those really struggling with writing a CV, the guide also shows you how to access more direct CV writing support from Andrew himself. Andrew has also covered details on completing application forms within the guide - something he knows a lot about through working with individuals applying to government, University, Third Sector roles - Andrew also working with recent graduates on applications for graduate entry schemes and training contracts .
