Making sure it’s updated with your latest experience and relevant contact details

Keeping it relevant and never lying – you’ll only get caught out in the long run

Ensuring it’s short, simple, no longer than two pages of A4 and includes bullet points

Once you’ve brushed up your CV, start getting it out there. Be proactive and register for free with online job boards and local recruitment agencies.

When applying for roles, make sure your cover letter is unique to the job. Reference the role, company and address it to the relevant person.

Once you secure an interview, it’s important to prepare. Familiarise yourself with the job spec and research key information about the company. Make sure you also ask if there’s anything you need to bring or prepare.

Find out who’s interviewing you and what their role is. Also, prepare some questions to ask at the end – this shows you’re really serious.

Finally, dress smart, take a copy of your CV, don’t be late and always turn off your phone. By following these simple top tips, you’ll put yourself in a great position to find, apply and get that next job – good luck!
