Imagine you are an interviewer for one minute. ..

You are sitting at your desk with a high mountain of paperwork in front of you.  You have to arrange next weeks interviews.  You know it has to be done but honestly its last thing you want todo.  OK – so how can you get this job done really quickly.  Well you are certainly not gong to read through every resume in detail…no .. you’ll scan through look at whats interesting and then arrange some quick interviews… lets see… what looks interesting.

Can you see my point?

Just make it stand out.  Coloured borders (not pink) – large clear font – missions statement at the top.  Keep the writing simple and straightforward.  As soon as you start to included waffle – it’ll be passed my (trust me – I’ve been there).

Just make a difference and you’ll be called in.
