HOW TO WRITE A CV in 2024! (SAMPLE CV & COVER LETTER TEMPLATES FOR JOB APPLICATIONS!)
A CV, or Curriculum Vitae, is a document that provides a detailed summary of a person's education, work experience, skills, and accomplishments. It is typically used in job applications, academic settings, and various professional contexts to showcase an individual's qualifications and suitability for a particular role or opportunity.
A COVER LETTER is a single-page professional letter you submit with your CV when applying for any job. The cover letter is a piece of persuasive writing that shows your passion for the job and why you have applied.
CV SECTION #1 is your CONTACT DETAILS.
At the top of your CV, include your name, email address, and direct contact number. Make sure the answerphone message assigned to your contact number sounds professional. If the hiring manager calls you to invite you along to an interview, and they get an unprofessional answerphone message, they may hang up.
CV SECTION #2 is your PERSONAL STATEMENT.
Your personal statement is a short introductory statement that outlines your key skills and qualities and why you will be a great fit for the job you have applied for. The personal statement should explain your passion for the role and include details as to why you stand out from the competition. Your personal statement should be between 200 and 300 words long.
CV SECTION #3 is your EDUCATION BACKGROUND.
In this part of your CV, include details of the schools, colleges, and universities you have attended, subjects studied, and grades attained. Write these in chronological order – this means putting your most recent education achievements first.
CV SECTION #4 is your WORK EXPERIENCE.
In this next important part of your CV, you should include details of, again in chronological order, your work history. Include the name of the employer, the position you held, and brief details of your main responsibilities. In this section, you can also include details of voluntary work and work experience placements.
CV SECTION #5 is your ACHIEVEMENTS.
In this next section of your CV, write down brief details in bullet points of any key achievements you have gained in life so far. Ideally, these will come from previous work positions, but you can also include details of professional certifications and training courses completed, honors and awards, languages, sporting achievements, and charity work.
CV SECTION #6 is your HOBBIES AND INTERESTS.
In this next section of your CV, write down brief details, again in bullet points, of your hobbies and interests. Good hobbies and interests include physical fitness activities, team sports, playing musical instruments, being a part of community groups and societies, and reading to name just a few.
CV SECTION #7 is your REFERENCES.
A reference is a professional individual willing to vouch for your credibility as an employee and your ability to do the job competently in the role you have applied for.
90% of candidates put ‘REFERENCES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST’ on this section of their CV, but this is a mistake. I strongly recommend including the names of two people who are willing to act as a reference for you. Make sure you ask their permission first before including them on your CV. If the hiring manager sees the names of two people who will vouch for your professionalism, it will definitely increase the chances of you getting invited to an interview.
