Keep length to 2 pages

If you have a lot of experience, you don’t need to have everything on your CV. Only include relevant and recent information to grab the employer’s attention. Depending on the position, keep the length to 2 pages. If you do have valuable project experience or director-level expertise, you can consider expanding the content to 3 pages.

Make it relevant

A CV should explain your experience, but if you are targeting a particular position where you have little experience, you can make the CV relevant by including this first under your work experience. That way, the information won’t get lost and it will be the first thing an employer will read.

A successful CV is one that grabs the employers’ attention, invites you to an interview and lands you the dream job. While there are many different templates that you can use, people routinely recycle the same template for every job that they apply for – and THAT can be a problem.

Usually, a CV Template is generic, but it is how you optimise these layouts to accurately capture your work experience and highlight your skills that makes all the difference.
