CV (Curriculum Vitae) as your self marketing tool
Hello everyone!
It's time for our online class with some new issues to talk about J
Sooner or later you will find yourselves in a situation like this:
Before you officially step into adulthood and start out looking for a job, it is essential for you to write a professional CV that will represent you in the best light. It should be your self marketing tool that will give you a chance to show off all your attributes that can make you a perfect choice for the potential employers.
Your CV should be your creative and meaningful personal profile, with clearly identified qualifications and achievements, along with your personal skills and abilities that are relevant for your future career. It has to make you stand out among hundreds of other candidates applying for the same job. It has to be concise and easy to read, updated every now and then and tailored to suit the requirements of each particular job you are applying for. And of course, arm yourself with a lot of confidence, self esteem and the belief that you will really find the job you are looking for. Good luck!
