What We Say
A good looking CV is just the start. You still need to sell yourself …and more effectively than your competitors. This is far easier said than done!
Your Sales Package
When people think about selling themselves to employers many mistakenly believe that it is a simple matter of including as many achievements as possible. Some people even try to force the issue by highlighting certain things in bold, capitals or extra large fonts.
However, employers tend to be very discerning and if you try to be too clever it can frequently backfire on you.
If you really want to sell your case properly to employers, you need to consider the sales package as a whole. This involves not just what you say, but how you say and present it.
