Freshen the look of your CV or résumé
Whether you’ve just graduated or are a leader in your field, your CV is your calling card. Often read before any other documentation, it is a brief but vital overview of your background and achievements. And it’s not just the content that matters; there are visual factors to consider, too. Your CV creates that irrevocable first impression – so how does it look? Is it easy to scan? Does it contain all – and only – information relevant to your application? Is it free of typos, excessive jargon, and mistakes? If you’re unsure what your current CV says about you, we can help.
We have conducted a thorough review of current international academic CV standards, and read many a commentary on the “dos and don’ts”. Our finding: there are no hard and fast rules to CVs! It’s commonly accepted that academic CVs are a bit more structured and longer than commercial CVs. Clear, concise, and accurate is the recurring credo from the experts.
Tailored templates for all occasions
Following our review, we’ve developed templates that are appropriate for your field and purpose – be it a new job, a commercial engagement, a promotion, or a prize, award, grant, or fellowship. What essential and optional sections to include will depend on the seniority and calibre of the applicant; we can advise on the right balance.
