Editor's Notes

  1. A bit about Grad recruitment
  2. What is interesting to you is not to others Consider the audience – what do they want to read about? Example – interviewed a physician who’d worked within the nuclear industry for a customer service job based on the fact she related her experience to the job I was recruiting for.
  3. Brainstorm Break the group up – Group A consider 1 & 2, Group B consider 3 & 4 Report back to
  4. CVs – review each others CVs
  5. Highlight which ones you think should/shouldn’t be
  6. Highlight which ones you think should/shouldn’t be
  7. A paragraph which sums up your personal qualities and sells yourself in a nutshell Take some time now to write your own profile statement.
  8. See Handouts Reverse Chronological – most recent job and work backwards. Emphasises jobs and organisations you’ve been with Functional – linked to skills and capabilities – emphasises key areas of achievements and strengths Targeted – if going for a specific job – focuses on that job and it’s stated at the top. Structured or application form – decided on by the recruiter and asked to complete.
  9. Example CVs to look at.
