This is the most important document you will ever write about yourself. Take some time and trouble over it.

• It must be concise, factual, clearly laid out and easy to read.
• It should contain your higher education and degree detail (including degree result and from which university)
• You should describe your career in reverse order (most recent company first)
• Add a section about your interests, hobbies and passions outside of work.
• Always add proficiency in foreign languages if you have them.

For Technologists it helps to add a table with your relevant technical skills and your proficiency levels.

For Commercial posts, you should add your contribution towards your employers’ targets and your key achievements

Do not exaggerate on your resume! It’s a small industry!

Always add references, as your peers provide a valuable reflection on your ability.

Do not doctor your resume for specific vacancies. Executive Recruitment Planning can help with any areas that may need to be enhanced or deleted.

Remember honesty is always the best policy!
