Importance of CV
C.V stands for “Curriculum vitae” it is a
Latin word that exactly means "the course of life". Your Curriculum Vitae
is a best way to reveal all-important information, skills, achievements,
rewards, and anything that differentiate you from others. It is your first
opportunity to build an excellent impression on the employer. Curriculum Vitae are
your job seeker's business card that requires making sure that the recruiter
would like to meet you. It does not matter what kind of a profession, or in
which industry he or she applying for, they will just require a CV in the procedure
of the application.
When writing a “Curriculum Vitae”, it is
necessary to keep one thing in mind that a recruiter does not read CVs, most of
the time they scan them for those characteristics that match the profile they
are looking for. According to a research, it has revealed that a recruiter
takes at least three to four minutes on average to evaluate a letter and CV. Therefore,
it is important for an individual to make sure that their letter and CV are good
enough to convince them in those few minutes.
It also allows us to talk a little bit
regarding our personal interests, and activities but this is merely a very
little part of a CV. It shows person's name, contacts details at the top, and
then list all their work experiences in date order starting with their current
job at the top. These days there are some organizations that are providing the
C.V writing service to help an individual for making good Curriculum Vitae.
