Be especially clear about the specific business verticals you\u2019ve been involved in, as this helps employers quickly understand where your expertise lies. It\u2019s also a good idea to mention any documentation relevant to work eligibility, such as passports and any other relevant licenses you hold.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember2076\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">If you\u2019ve experienced a redundancy, make that explicitly clear, especially if it resulted in a shorter tenure. This avoids any assumptions about performance or job-hopping and gives helpful context to hiring managers reviewing your timeline.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember2077\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">I\u2019d also say it\u2019s always worth taking another look at your CV to ensure it includes the right keywords for the role you\u2019re applying for. While it\u2019s helpful to keep a general \u201cvanilla\u201d version of your CV, spending just 10\u201315 minutes tailoring a copy to each position can make a big difference.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember2078\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Where job titles may vary across companies and locations, consider adding a simplified or more universally recognised title alongside your official one to help hiring managers quickly understand your experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"reader-divider-block__horizontal-rule\" \/>\n<p id=\"ember2079\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\"><strong>\u201cSometimes less really is more,\u201d<\/strong> mentions <a id=\"ember2080\" class=\"ember-view\" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/iain-watson-666748137\/\">Iain Watson<\/a>, Associate Director.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember2081\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">\u201cA clean, streamlined layout that clearly highlights your responsibilities is far more effective than a cluttered CV. Hiring managers review dozens of applications daily and don\u2019t have time to read every word, so yours should be easy to skim over and packed with relevant industry buzzwords, whilst focussing on the key details that matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"reader-divider-block__horizontal-rule\" \/>\n<p id=\"ember2082\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\"><strong>\u201cBullet points are key,\u201d<\/strong> highlights <a class=\"ArnTpmDpqOjShEweVaJcYZwkyLmDqkqjbDdY \" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/jonathan-revie?miniProfileUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afs_miniProfile%3AACoAAC4FpM8BbSIiZ_PQd8CVGd1RHeqrQhmeVYo\" target=\"_self\" data-test-app-aware-link=\"\">Jonathan Revie-Singh<\/a> , Senior Recruitment Consultant.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember2083\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">\u201cUse succinct bullet points to highlight your most relevant achievements.
