Cv Workout, The

Synopsis

Skills training in writing curricula vitae (CV) - which should be brief, relevant and have the single aim of winning an interview. The video invites the viewer to turn three rejected CVs into successful ones and looks at the need to identify skills and attributes and how work-oriented CVs should display a grasp of business and profit. Shows three case studies employing different CV formats, and shows ‘before’ and ‘after’ CVs and how to get from one to the other.
