CHALLENGE #1:
Why am I not Getting an Interview?
-
Le CV est trop dense : quel DRH va samuser aller pcher les infos, face une pile de 100 CV ? Le CV est peu attrayant : ds le premier regard, le recruteur a dcid de jeter votre candidature. Le CV est plat : il donne limpression que vous avez simplement recopi vos fiches de poste.

6 SECONDS
A study found that recruiters spend only 6 seconds reviewing
an individual resume.
Based on our own experience:
1 minute or less per resume
-
The first time is the worst time
The hardest CV you'll ever have to write is the one that kick starts your career.
There is absolutely no point in taking naff advice from recruitment websites and careers offices because they will just talk to you about CV styles that are completely inappropriate to your situation - stale, recycled advice that is barely relevant to people in their forties, let alone the mighty challenge of differentiating yourself from tens of thousands of other young people who also have "great communication and customer care skills that they got at the supermarket checkout...."
-
CV needs to be unique
Unique concept.
Unique information.
Unique structure.
Unique selling points.
Uniquely you, with your character
Unique concept. Unique information. Unique structure; Unique selling points. Uniquely you, with your character showing through and justifying your career choice while it points out your value and potential and shows them that you are more mature, enthusiastic and informed than all those turkeys who pump out the same CV full of clichs.
-
CV is about concepts.
It should not be a copy-cat template so by following it you
will not generate the same CV as everyone else.
You will create a creative, characterful, professional, convincing
and effective CV because you will be aware of the impact of what
you are saying and be clear about the right way to get your value
across.
