Recruiters will only look at your CV or resume for just 6 seconds before making a decision about you, meaning that it’s so important to make a good impression fast.
In this video, I’m going to go over 3 ways that you can make sure your CV stands out, giving you the best chance in your training contract, vacation scheme, paralegal or other applications you do.
I hope this video helps you get past the (very rigid) CV-screening stage of the application and into the later stages where you’ll really be able to show off your personality!
