DEMONSTRATION SPEECHES - HOW TO WRITE A WINNING CV |
Good Morning,
A curriculum vitae - you will definitely need one! Today, I will be demonstrating one of the acceptable and correct formats for writing an effective cv for someone who has finished school and university and who already has some work experience.
Very briefly, your curriculum vitae should be a detailed biographical summary of you! Your cv should give the reader insight into your personal details, notable achievements, academic accomplishments and work experience.
Remember that your aim is to sell your self - honestly and with credibility.
Your first step when compiling a curriculum vitae is to brainstorm and then mind map....you and your life! Take an A4 sheet of blank paper and mind map relevant and significant points related to the following main categories: personal details, formal education, work experience, hobbies, interests and achievements.
After you have completed a brief outline - you need to get down to the details and define the outline further. Your language should be factual and concise. Avoid flowery and emotive language.
When you structure the personal details section of your cv remember to include your surname, first name, date of birth, social security number, your home language, home address, postal address, email address and updated contact numbers.
The next step in the cv process is to add more information about your formal education. Generally this may include the following:
high school - subjects passed and achievements
tertiary education - details with respect to degree/ diploma obtained and core course skills covered together with notable achievements
work experience - details should answer who, what, when, where and why [ reason for leaving or wanting to move] as they relate to previous and current employment
interests, hobbies and noteworthy points - this section gives the employer insight into you as a person as opposed to a potential professional employee.
Once all of these aspects have been covered, remember to include two or three references whom your future employer can contact to confirm that you are indeed the best candidate for the job.
You final step is to sell yourself. People generally undermine their achievements. Try to see yourself objectively and highlight your strengths. The aim of a good cv is to get an interview so make it count!
