Neil Johnson is joined by HR expert Caroline Bixby and CV writer Neville Rose, in the 1st of two episodes looking at the best way to promote yourself through your CV and LinkedIn. This week they cover CV do’s and don’ts.
Neil and guests discuss why it's important to emphasise achievements and tailoring CVs to job descriptions, and why using third-person language is a mistake. They stress the importance of avoiding spelling mistakes and using clear, non-acronym-laden language, and highlight the significance of transferable skills and being honest about one's abilities. The conversation also touches on the role of applicant tracking systems and why a short but clear CV is best.
