Nowadays, one of the most important documents while looking for a job is the CV (curriculum vitae). A properly prepared CV not only presents your experience and skills in a better way, but it also strengthens your professional image. However, instead of making a CV, many people copy-paste from others, which is wrong and tarnishes your personal identity. Let's learn how to make an effective and attractive CV.
1. Personal Information
A CV should always start with your personal information. This should include your name, address, phone number and email ID. Make sure all the information is correct and updated. Your name should be written in capital letters at the top in this section. After this, you can also add a short description, such as your professional position or field. After this, mention contact details such as address, email and phone number.
2. Work Experience
Work experience is given a lot of importance in a CV. Here you have to give details of your previous jobs. First write the name of the company, then your designation, and the time you worked there (start and end date). This gives the employer a good idea of your professional life. If you have worked on any major project, then mention it as well.
3. Education
Also mention your educational qualification in the CV. This can include your 12th, graduate, post-graduate or any diploma course. If you have done special training or course in a particular subject, include that as well. Keep in mind that add the marks or percentage obtained by you only if they are good. Along with education, also write the name of the related institute.
4. Skills
This section is very important as it is directly related to the job demand. Include in your CV the skills required for the job you are applying for. These skills can be technical (eg computer programming), linguistic (eg English, Hindi, other languages), and other expertise (eg team leadership, problem solving, etc.).
5. Objective
Also write a short objective in your CV, in which you explain why you want to work in that company and what contribution you will make to the company. This reflects your professional approach and helps the employer understand how you can be useful in their organization.
6. Proofreading
After creating your CV, read it carefully. Correct any typing or grammatical mistakes. You can also get a friend or family member to read it for your opinion. Most importantly, never copy-paste. It is better to customize your CV for each job. This will make your CV look appropriate and effective for that particular role.
