Creating the Best CV

With university courses being more widespread than ever, the amount of candidates going for jobs with excellent qualifications is greater than ever before. The downside to this is that qualifications aren’t quite the career boosting things they once were. That’s not to say of course that it is pointless working for a good degree, in fact quite the opposite. The right qualifications and experience are more necessary than ever in getting your foot in the door, as there will be so many others with the right grades if you haven’t.

So what does it mean then? Well, ultimately, your education alone is no longer enough to get you the coveted jobs you are after and instead your CV has to stand out from the crowd in many other ways too. More and more employers are lending importance to personality as part of the candidate selection process. Therefore what once made a good CV – a succinct summation of your grades, experience and interests probably isn’t going to cut the mustard anymore.

One of the easiest ways to turn a good CV into the perfect resume is by, like most thing in life, going digital. An Online CV has much greater scope for allowing your personality to shine through, giving you the ability to not only give information about your grades, but also upload a wide range of other information from documentation, references and certificates right through to more interactive solutions such as videos.

With an online CV, you can show who you really are and give yourself the best chance of getting an interview and getting yourself noticed before you have even walked in the room. Not only that, but it makes the tracking process a doddle, and turns a stressful time into an easy one, and certainly one that is a lot more fun.
