- Skills-based or functional CV – emphasising your skills and personal qualities
- Improving a CV – giving your CV a face lift, with examples to illustrate how to improve a CV
Applications
Depending on the organisation(s) you are applying to you will come across a number of application and assessment methods.
- Analysing job advertisements – showing you how applications are prepared to match the advertised requirements
- Application letters – putting together speculative and covering letters, with examples
- Application forms – making forms convincing, interesting and well presented
- Application form questions – how best to answer these questions
- Applying online – how to make sure your online application is up to scratch
- References – who to ask, and academic references
Interviews
An interview format can be one to one, or there may be second or third interviewers in the form of a panel.
- Interviews – interview formats
