How to make an effective CV?
549713
Personal details\n\nName, home address, college address, phone number, email address, date of birth. \nDo you have your own web homepage? Include it (if it's good!).\nIf your name does not obviously show if you are male or female, include this! \n\n\nEducation\n\nGive places of education where you have studied - most recent education first. Include subject options taken in each year of your course. Include any special project, thesis, or dissertation work. \n\nPre-college courses (high school, etc.) should then be included, including grades. Subjects taken and passed just before college will be of most interest. Earlier courses, taken at say age 15-16, may not need much detail. \nWork experience\nList your most recent experience first. Give the name of your employer, job title, and very important, what you actually did and achieved in that job. Part-time work should be included. \n\n\nInterests\n\nThey will be particularly interested in activities where you have leadership or responsibility, or which involve you in relating to others in a team. A one-person interest, such as stamp-collecting, may be of less interest to them, unless it connects with the work you wish to do. Give only enough detail to explain. (If you were captain of a sports team, they do not want to know the exact date you started, how many games you played, and how many wins you had! They will ask at the interview, if they are interested.) If you have published any articles, jointly or by yourself, give details. \n\nIf you have been involved in any type of volunteer work, do give details. \n\n\nSkills\n\nAbility in other languages, computing experience, or possession of a driving licence should be included. \nReferences\nUsually give two names - one from your place of study, and one from any work situation you have had. Or if this does not apply, then an older family friend who has known you for some time. Make sure that referees are willing to give you a reference. Give their day and evening phone numbers if possible. \n\n\nLength\n\nMaybe all you need to say will fit onto one sheet of A4. But do not crowd it - you will probably need two sheets. Do not normally go longer than this. Put page numbers at the bottom of the pages - a little detail that may impress.

Highlight your best skills at the top in a summary fashion.  Example: Proficient in MS Office applications including Word, Excel, PowerPoint.  Outstanding customer service skills, excellent typing ability (etc).\n\nNext, put any education you've had under that (college, high school, military experience, anything that will stand out to a potential employer as selling points). \n\nThen, put your professional experience below here.  Add dates of employment and be brief.  Don't be too wordy or they won't read your resume.  At the same time, give just enough detail that makes them want to call you and ask questions about your resume. Try to use bullet points and highlight the key points of each job.

As a reviewer of 100's of resume's in the architecture field, I can say it really depends on what company/university you are applying to. Different ones will want different things. Some easy tips.\n\n1) Don't mention obvious stuff like you're ontime and you're a nice guy.\n2) Dont' mention skills in things you don't want to perform.\n3) Be sure to have an objection section and make that specific to each university you apply to.\n4) Make it visually appealing. Clean and use indenting. It's easier to read.\n5) Important stuff on top and less important on the bottom of the page. Honestly we don't get to the bottom of most resumes.

Here are some good resume examples.  You can decide which format works best for you AND see how other people use the various formats to highlight certain aspects of their background (education, work experience, accomplishments).\n\nThe format you use really depends on what you want to focus your resume on.

Start with a summary (in point form) of what you have accomplished. Then followed by your detailed work experience. Each one should have a strong emphasis of what exactly you have done in that job which stood out. Lastly write about your education/studies (degree) which should mention about your major and thesis. Also include other personal developments (workshop, seminars, etc.) as well. Eventually, you can always add more later to 'spice' it up. Remember, a good resume is never perfect and finalized; you will always need to update it occasionally. G'luck.

Below are some sample resumes for your reference:\n\nhttp://www.resume-resource.com/samples.html\n\nHere are some guidelines:\n1. If you have less than 10 years of experience, you want your resume to be one page.\n2. Generally, clearly show your name, mailing address, email address if available, and best phone number(s) to contact you.\n3. Then show your education, work experience, any interests, achievements, and skill sets. Under your work experience, it is not a list of your job descriptions (this is a common mistake). You should instead indicate what you have accomplished and the results.  Use action verbs.\n4. If you are looking for your first job or intend to change job function / industry, you may want to state your objectives.\n4. There is no one “correct” format.  It depends on your profession and personal style.\n5. Also, try not to use technical words and jargons. Do not abbreviate.\n\nYou can post your resume at:\nhttp://www.monster.com\nhttp://www.careerbuilder.com\nhttp://hotjobs.yahoo.com\n\nI would also go to your bookstore and find a resume book in the business/career section. You can also find more examples and templates online if you do a search.\n\nGood luck and have a nice day.

It would be better not to use a template.  You want the  candidates to stand out as individuals.  I would make sure to include how long you've known them and in what capacity.\n\nThat being said, here are some helpful websites.

SCRAP the "utilize my skills"part and any variation of that sentence,  EVERYONE wants to use their personal skills. That's so redundant. Show the employer how you can benefit them. You are there to make their life easier. And find cause and effect. For example if you want to work for a new software developer in launching new products,  tell them your goal is to be part of the development process through your analytical skills and experience (give a few words on what experience in particular would pertain to this position) You may have experience but how does it relate?\n\nPersonally, unless you want to WOW the employer with an objective that pertians to their particular position,  I would leave the OBJECTIVE out all together. It's wasted space to tell an employer that you want work in their industry and that you want to bring your own experience and you want to GROW withing the company in doing so. "Ahhhhh, duuuh... no kidding, who doesn't?!" So many people use objectives in their CVs and don't realise just how they waste space. The rule of thumb is, use resume templates that use sections that will benefit your person set of skills. The OBJECTIVE is a tricky thing because even if it is about what you want the employer still reads it as "how will it benefit me?"  \n\ngood luck

Catch 22, most employers won't give you chance to learn on the job. If you can find a school or college or church or charity that needs some help, it's usually a good learning experience and something employers will like to see on your CV - just keep it real.
