C/Vs and job finding skills

Of course networking and interviewing are essential for your job hunt and your CV is just the first step in the job search.

However, a great CV will open the door to your first contact with potential employers.You need to advertise yourself on the CV to show them why you would be great for the advertised position.

If you are then invited for an interview, you would be in a position to explain and expand on what is in your CV and how you will be an asset to their company.

Take a look at some resource options.

You should always include a cover letter when sending your CV out to employers.

A good cover letter will make an employer interested enough to read your application thoroughly, and call you for an interview.

The letter should give an employer an idea of who you are, and explain what skills you could bring to the job.

It is really important to tailor your cover letters so they relate specifically to each job application.
