Lesson Three
The information you put into your CV is all that the company has to work with, so make sure it holds the best reflection of you as an individual and what you bring to the table.
Focus on your strengths and your views on your abilities. We all have weaknesses but need time to work on them. So, don’t focus on what you can’t do but rather on what you do well.
All companies want to see how you are growing and developing yourself to be better at what you do. This does not have to always be formal education, but can be in the form of any course, life experience and even mentorship you have been through. Anything you feel has shaped your career and provided you with the tool’s you command should be stated under your development.
Out of habit, we always put down at least one or two references at the bottom of our CV. The idea is for someone that knows you to motivate why you would be a good fit.
Most of us wouldn’t even think twice about it and would feel strange leaving it out intentionally. This is something you need to seriously consider – This form of character reference can make or break your chance for the job. If you have any hesitations of your reference not wanting you to leave your current job or lacking in a solid relationship, then rather leave them out.
Don’t be afraid to put co-workers or even long-lasting clients.
