Publisher's Synopsis
There is a statistic that says that the first time that the HR person scans your paperwork, they will spend only six or seven seconds deciding whether you deserve a closer look. If you are applying to a large organization you may not even have the benefit of a human being making that decision, it may well be a computer programme. What are you going to do to get noticed? A CV, or indeed any type of job application form is your very own form of marketing and needs to describe your talent in such a way that the person can start to picture who you are. This book contains much of the content I use in my workshops, and the feedback I receive proves that it can work. By examining a number of key factors you need to be thinking about when you are writing your CV or completing your application form, this book can help you ensure that your job application stands out from the others, and that it makes it to the 'for interview' pile'
