Scope: 5. Comprehensive, Contributor: Mr Bryan Edwards
“It contains lots of useful information, tips and prompts. As a result, I am going to do some work on my cv and will definitely use it in preparation for interviews that I have” JOB SEEKER “There are many interview advice guides on the internet but I have never seen one this informative before. Some of our interview candidates would benefit from reading this” HUMAN RESOURCES SPECIALIST Introduction A well designed, eye catching Curriculum Vitae/Resume will lead the job seeker to the job interview. The recruitment interview, like delivering a presentation, remains one of the most daunting experiences in life. As with all our job search efforts, we can tackle many of these difficulties and the feelings that we have, through preparation and rehearsal. The C.V./Resume and Interview Preparation Guide has been written by an experienced recruitment interviewer with over 20 years experience in the commercial market. The Guide will help you through this preparation and rehearsal process, providing loads of tips and tactics to design an effective c.v. that gets you noticed and help you ‘shine through’ at interview. In addition, valuable ‘insider’ information is provided as to what the Interviewer is looking for, and what impresses them most. What does the C.V./Resume & Interview Preparation Guide cover? The 60-page guide allows the Job Seeker to: - Save time by using one of the 5 comprehensive templates to build their C.V. – just substitute their details into the MS Word document. - Design an eye-catching curriculum vitae that helps secure a job interview, including suggestions on content and visual aspects that appeals to Interviewers, how to make your achievements and skills ‘come alive’, a C.V. Checklist and information on covering letters and emails. - Prepare fully for the job interview, including research, typical interview questions, body language and active listening skills. An invaluable part of this Guide is an insider’s view from the other side of the interview desk - the strategy of the Interviewer and their motivations for asking certain type of questions. - Identify their skill sets. The Guide contains checklists around the typical skills required in jobs, including customer service and leadership skills (for managerial jobs). - Deliver an exceptional interview performance that helps ‘sell themselves’ as the ideal candidate and gives them the best possible chance of securing the ideal job. Who is the Guide for? This guide has been designed as a practical resource to help you secure employment no matter what your background, income expectations or type of job. People who use this Guide will come with all different motivations: - Employers looking to support their staff who are made redundant - Been made redundant from existing job. - Looking for first job after full time education. - Bored in existing job and looking for a fresh challenge. - Returning to work after a period out of employment. - Looking to seek a promotion role with their existing organisation. - Seeking an alternative career. Format The Guide is supplied electronically in Microsoft Word format so that templates for C.V./Resume included in the Guide can be utilised, without having to format - saving loads of time.
