This example really makes sense. Reply Edwin Mwaniki on October 13th, 2017 - 1254pm Wowits actually interesting how 25yrs experience fit in such a small volume with each one of them represented.Im learning ?? Reply David Morris on October 14th, 2017 - 310am WOW. This is inspirational.As a hiring manager, I have certainly valued seeing people pay attention to the format as well as the content of their CV. In my most recent recruitment drive, of the three candidates that made it through to the last round, tow of them had used . It shows. The long wordy CVs, with little thought to format, language, grammar, or white space make me cringe and risk being quickly consigned to the reject pile. Our internal recruiters hold us to account for providing reasonable feedback on why someone do nt make the grade (an awful CV alone is not reason enough). Perhaps I should start making a link to part of that feedback.Now, ironically, as I think about my own CV it used to run many pages, as I used to detail individual projects on which I had worked. Then some years ago I trimmed it down to four pages. Page 1 has my profile, key achievements, and summary of core competencies. Pages 2 and 3 cover roles and achievements in the last 12 years, showing just a list of roles from the 20 years before that. Finally, page 4 shows my professional development, education, professional memberships, online presence, publications, and general interests. Seeing this one-pager has certainly given me some ideas. While I can see ways of chopping mine down to a two-pager, I am struggling with how it might become a single page. I note that the font you have used is small, however it is a really crisp font with plenty of white space still, so that the reader can focus. Ill ponder some more and see w hat I could safely discard. Reply Pamela on October 15th, 2017 - 301pm Can I hire someone at your company to create something like this for me from my blah old school resume? Im not at all tech savvy Reply Tatiana Rehmova on October 16th, 2017 - 742am Hi Pamela, unfortunately, we dont offer such services.

If you decide to give it a go, wed be excited to hear what you thought. Thank you Reply Raj on October 31st, 2017 - 342pm Putting a photo on the resume. How do you (as hiring managers) feel about this? One, it is too edgy styling, but thats my personal opinion. Second, I am concerned about discriminatory hiring lawsuits, etc. I dont want applicants to send me resume with photos. What do you think? Reply Tatiana Rehmova on November 3rd, 2017 - 1107am Hi Raj, thanks for your comment.As an employer, we accept resumes with a photo on them. Its not that we require them, but we definitely dont throw them in the bin. As an employer, you need to decide whats important to you. For us, the main information we want to see on resumes is candidates personality, values, attitude to work and life, as well as quantifiable results from each job theyve had. A photo is the last thing we look at. Its definitely a sensitive topic, though. On one hand, yes, you can get a discriminatory hiring lawsuit, but on the other hand, the majority of recruiters use Linkedin as a way to cross-check resumes. On Linkedin, were encouraged to use a profile photo anyway. So wouldnt that be against the law too? Reply Michael Sexton on December 7th, 2017 - 525pm If an employer has a bias 1. Do you really want to work for them anyway? 2. Theyre going to find out what you look like, your gender and your ethnicity at s ome point, most likely on LinkedIn. When I have needed to supply a CV (and I use ) I link the photo to my YouPlus.biz personal branding video. This is like a 30 second pre-interview, which allows me to communicate my message directly to the recruiter or employer. Its the perfect complement to a . Its also on my LinkedIn Profile which is key Reply renuka on April 26th, 2018 - 658am Length of a resume matters big time. This, I came to know after going through your blog which is based on the length of a resume. It helped me a lot during resume preparation. Thank you. Reply anusha wadhwa on May 26th, 2018 - 731pm Perfect A very long resume become confusing and does not send a good message. Reply Jon Mark on November 16th, 2018 - 1224pm I looked at my tired old 2-page CV with fresh eyes, reduced it to a 1-page version, and its so much betterThe only thing I dont like in the above examples is the Life Philosophy/Motto, which so often seems to be pretentious filler and a turn-off. Is it really helpful? Reply Tatiana Rehmova on November 16th, 2018 - 225pm Hi Jon and thanks for a great feedback ?? I see your point about Life Philosophy, but some people feel strongly about their own one and love this section. Of course, it depends on you, your style, and your feeling. The aim is to feel proud when you look at your resume, not pretentious. I hope this helps ?? ReplyLeave a Reply Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
