Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by gigitte(f): 2:39am On Aug 28, 2006 |
@ lauryn in nigeria all those things are part of a CV, we don't really have resumes and its usually more than a page quite different from the USA or canada for that matter. north america is not the end all and be all of everything u know |

u wanna hear the truth, cos truth hurts!!! ur cv aint so good, y didnt u use resume wizard?.its the best 4 producing neat cvs.also ur cv is too unwieldly, trim it down to 2pages, an entry level cv shudnt b more than 2 pages!!!, n in ur education history.just use the particular date, ie 2004 bsc geography, if u dont know how to use resume wizard, find a buis center that does!!! n u shudnt have posted ur cv here, its in careers that u shud post it!!! |

well it isn't bad but resumes especially for young graduates are not supposed to be more than a page as we were told during our service year.it is advisable that you resume be as precise and concise as possible for easy accessibility. |
Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by lovestinks(f): 2:48pm On Aug 28, 2006 |
hey your resume is not that bad, kudos to u cos believe me some graduates cant write a presentable.however i think the following corrections will help you. 1.Your personal details should be on top of ur CV with ur contact details.cos its an introducation to who you are.can u imagine giving a speech.talking on the topic then introducing your self. 2.Its not necessary for you to give the full address details of your past work locations.just the company name,state or country if its outside nigeria will do.then its brief and straight. 3.From i CV serminal i attended.it is better not to add your references to your CV.WHY? becos imagine if you are a previous employer or referee and had 5 calls asking for reference on just one of ur previous staff.u may get upset/frasturated and not be as receptive as you should be.there by sending negative notions.when the right employer comes.plus its not wise sending out personal details of other people.you dont know where it may end up. belive me there is always a form for your referee no one is going to get em off your CV.furthermore it makes your CV unnecessary long if you just lookin to lenghten you CV.try addin skill(ie team players,microsoft trained,good communication skill,customer riented etc or you could add your past associations/club memberships eg your department associations,awards etc.or social leadership roles eg treasurer,social directior etc.it really helps alot in selling your self in place of your referee details just put.AVAILABLE ON REQUEST. Lastly i think your CV could use a more professional format.like i always say,packaging matters.the way is package is wat you get.so package big ie pro most importantly your CV is a way of selling urself.u ve 2 go the extra mile cos employers see loads of CV.and may not ve time 2 read the whole lot. hope these points help you, sorry 4 any wrong spellings am not one to crosscheck.lol.Good Luck |

Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by enpopa(m): 9:44am On Sep 01, 2006 |
for a fresher like you, a 3 page cv is useless and i advise you trim it down to at most 2 pages. |

Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by nilla(f): 1:49am On Sep 05, 2006 |
LoverBwoy: I think so too. Apart from that I think Ehiwere's format looked presentable |
Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by tayorich12(f): 12:14pm On Sep 05, 2006 |
Hey all, Love the way all the comments are going back forth. A real good way of helping each other out!! I think anyone who wants to write a good CV should check this link out http://www.alec.co.uk/resume-examples/index.htm. The format is really for Europe and the USA, but at least it gives good advice on the types of CV that there are and how the right CV can really highlight your particular circumstance. By the looks of it sopesupi, your CV is going to need some tidying up. I believe that looking at the samples on this site will help you out a lot. |
Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by LoverBwoy(m): 7:04pm On Sep 05, 2006 |
@ nilla i don't really think its presentable, it looks a bit , the fonts, the bullet point (that arrow thingy), it looks congested too Ehiwere, you can do without the footer try clicking on what Tayorich posted, and copy some of the format, it will make your Cv stand out |
Re: Hotest Resume! Check It by Ehiwere(m): 2:37pm On Sep 11, 2006 |
Thanks ,i will try check that out.when i finally leave the camp. |
