CVs and Interviews

CV Service – Many jobseekers are new to the idea of professional CV services. The popularity of these CV services is increasing like most other services. Ten years ago it was rare to have cleaners or a professional laundry service. With so many jobseekers new to the concept there are a number of considerations when choosing a provider and selecting services.

CV Service – choosing a provider

As with choosing and interview coach there are a number of considerations. I have posted previously about choosing a CV expert

Other services on offer from a CV professional

Cover Letter writing & design – Most CV services will also provide cover letter design. If you have done your research you may as well get your cover letter from the same provider. Personally I don’t value cover letters BUT it is a document many employers expect. Worth it!!

CV Education & Knowledge – Catch a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish and he will eat forever. What I mean is as follows. If I design your CV you will be able to apply for a job BUT if I teach you the principles behind CV design you won’t need me ever again. As part of my CV design I educate clients on the principles of CV design. This is because the likelihood is that each job you apply for will involve some tweaking or changing your CV. Very worth it!!

Job hunting strategies – Check this out as it is no good having a great CV if you don’t know how to get it to the audience. This will cover – how to use recruitment agencies, online job boards, newspapers, speculative applications, networking and much more. Worth it!!

CV Distribution service – waste of money!! I think one company charged EUR25.00 to distribute your CV to 10 agencies. Rip off!!

Interview Coaching – Many career professionals can help you with CV design and Interview Coaching. Let’s face it if they are good enough to get you the interview it is worth a punt on their interview coaching skills. Very worth it!!
