Writing a compelling CV

When it comes to getting a job, one requires skills in 4 aspects:

• Finding job adverts and making sense of them
• Writing a compelling Curriculum vitae (CV) or Resume
• Writing a convincing Cover Letter (or motivation letter)
• Succeeding at a job interview.

Many job applications will also involve the completion of an online application form.

This is usually straightforward and clear instructions are very often provided.
