Preston recruitment agency, Spencer Clarke Group, have released a brand new digital magazine, The Ultimate CV Guide to help jobseekers create a CV which will catch the attention of hiring managers and secure them an interview.
The free magazine includes what to include on your CV, how it should be structured, how to address periods of unemployment and the most common mistakes to avoid.
Research has found that recruiters spend roughly 6-7 seconds looking at a CV before deciding whether it reaches the ‘yes’ or ‘no’ pile which means there is little time to make an impact and encourage the recruiter to continue reading the CV.
“We’ve compiled this guide because writing a CV can be a daunting prospect and writing a CV which gets you to the interview stage is a challenge,” said Mike Shorrock, managing director of Spencer Clarke Group.
Shorrock continued: “We see countless CVs on a daily basis so we know what hiring managers are looking for and we wanted to share this information with jobseekers who might not be as familiar with the process.”
