      Why is this online CV Writing Skills training course important?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      CVs are valuable and relevant because they are your first and maybe only direct communication with a potential employer. Presentation is key. For this reason alone, it should be carefully thought out, designed and written so that it makes an immediate positive impact on key decision-makers. When a reader looks at your resume, they should be able to gain a clear indication of your experiences and potential quickly. Bear in mind that the person reading it will never have met you, so keep it grammatically error-free and focused, as it will be seen as a reflection of you as a person.<\/p>\n

      To summarise your CV is essentially a marketing tool that allows you to sell yourself and your abilities to employers. It should have:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • A positive outlook,<\/li>\n
      • Clearly, show those strengths and experiences that are most relevant to the job you are applying for, and<\/li>\n
      • Demonstrate your potential as a future potential employee.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
