This will give an employer a brief ‘snapshot’ of you. Here are some things to consider:
Use examples from part-time work, Saturday jobs, holiday work, work experience, gap year and voluntary work to show you have gained skills relevant to the job you are applying for.
Your main skills, achievements & responsibilities in this job
Ignore the finish date if this is your current job
Use this to highlight other skills you have or things you have achieved. Again, keep them relevant to the job you are applying for. Some examples:
Include all your qualifications and special achievements. Start with the most recent.
List each course and the associated grade or classification you achieved (if relevant)
List any extra-curricular achievements during your time at this school/college
Are any of your interests or hobbies relevant to the job you are applying for? Or do they show another side of your character? Employers like interesting, motivated people who do things outside of work.
If you want their details to appear on your CV enter them here. Or tick ‘References available on request’.It’s useful to give the name of someone who knows you from an educational setting and one from a work or private setting – but don’t use a member of your family.
