It outlines your skills, qualifications and work experience in connection to the job that you&#8217;re applying for. An expression of why they hire you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CV stands for Curriculum Vitae. Curriculum Vitae is a Latin word that means &#8220;course of life.&#8221; and \u201cresume\u201d is a French word that means &#8220;summary.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to write a resume?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideal Length<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ideal length should not be more than two pages, even if you have more experience. Recruiters have not so much time to read stories that want to know if the candidate meets their job requirements and has qualifications. Try to include your relevant experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Personal Information<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this section, start with your name, contact information i.e., phone number, residential address, email ID and if your LinkedIn profile is updated and looks professional, if not up to date, do not mention it because a human resource person may visit it. Make sure not to write any irrelevant and unnecessary information like date of birth or marital status.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work experience<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Briefly summarise your professional work experience. The companies that you want to use as references. Just in a few lines. Work experience should be in reverse chronological order starting from most recent to previous.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qualification and Skills<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This section includes your academic education, professional and skilled education and certifications. Start from the present to past orders.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work references<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this section, include at least two work referees, your position in the organisation, address and your manager, supervisor\/team leader contact number. If you are unable to provide work reference then you can write to your local friend, college teachers etc. someone who knows your abilities and can explain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A resume or CV is a document that summarizes a person&#8217;s education, work experience, skills, and achievements for potential employers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2653,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[44,46],"tags":[43,45],"class_list":["post-261","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-resources","category-study","tag-cv","tag-resume"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2657,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261\/revisions\/2657"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2653"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentconsultants.com.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
