·This is your chance to show that you are a well-rounded person with interests outside of your work or study. Don’t just list things you have done, but think about what you have contributed: the skills you have used, and what you have achieved. Don’t worry at this stage if you don’t think anything you have done is relevant; again, you may find the Making Yourself Employable leaflet useful.

A list of six skills required to be employable and why are they important?

·This should be a brief section at the top of the page, incorporating your name and current address, telephone number and email address (make sure that this is suitable: for example “myname123@...” is probably better than “littlediva@...”!).

·This section is your chance to make a pitch for the role. It should not exceed a couple of sentences or three or four lines of text. Highlight what you are doing now, for example, I am a current second year student studying English’ and the technical and transferable skills and experience you have that relate to the role or industry you are applying for. Finally, explain what you are now seeking, for example ‘Now seeking an editorial placement to support my career ambition to work in publishing.  

Skills

·If you include a skills profile, ensure you illustrate each skill with a relevant example. You can use skills gained from your employment, education or through extra-curricular experience - remember that skills are transferable!

·It is conventional to list your most recent qualifications first. You may not need to include every qualification you have; for example, you do not have to list all of your GCSEs; it will suffice to say “8 GCSEs including Mathematics and English”.  If you are applying for a job relating to your degree, you could list relevant modules studied at University and information about dissertations and projects.

·Your experience section can include details of voluntary and unpaid work experience as well as paid jobs; think about what is relevant to the job to which you are applying to.

·Rather than “Work Experience”, think about an “Employment” section, which can also include any unpaid or voluntary work that you have done. List your jobs starting with the most recent first. If you have been working for a long time, you may not have to list all of your experience; remember to keep it relevant to the job which you are applying for. When describing your responsibilities, focus on the skills that you developed, and any achievements accomplished in that role.
