Tips for creating a CV

Here are some basic tips that may assist you in producing your CV for agencies and prospective employers.

Plan it:

Assemble the facts and list all the information you need to include in your CV:

  • Personal details that will tell us a little about who you are.
  • Up to date contact details on how to reach you.
  • A chronological list of your qualifications.
  • The responsibilities of each of your previous roles.
  • Notable achievements you enjoyed at each of your employers.
  • This information will form the basis of your CV.

Write it:

Now you must write up this information in a way that sells you and your background to potential employers.  Try to tailor your Curriculum Vitae to your ideal next step, whether a particular job/specialism or organisation/sector.

  • Write in a professional and commercially aware style.
  • Demonstrate how you could benefit a prospective employer.
  • Focus on your strengths.
  • Don’t leave any unexplained gaps – if you have travelled or been out of work, say so.
  • Work in reverse chronological order, i.e. list your most recent role first.
  • Ensure sentences are no longer than about 15 words.
  • Create an impact with appropriate action words e.g. successfully achieved…, energetically led…

Stylise it:

Now that you have the content of your CV, you now need to focus on the layout, to ensure it creates a favourable visual impression.

Here are some rules of CV style:

  • Word-process your CV, e.g. using Microsoft Word.
  • Ideally keep to two pages maximum.
  • Employ an A4 portrait style.
  • Stick to a white background, and don’t include any decorative borders.
  • Choose a black font and a simple typeface – use this style consistently.
  • Highlight headings using italics or bold; avoid capitals and underlining.
  • Keep paragraphs under five lines long. Use bullet points sparingly instead.
  • Stay reader friendly by using lots of ‘white space’.
  • Use good quality white/cream paper when printing your CV. Avoid special effects such as binding.

Proof read it:

You should now have created your own CV. It will read well, look great and be the ultimate tool to represent you.
