Competition for jobs is fiercer than ever! Even if you are the perfect candidate for the job, if your CV has omissions, errors or an unprofessional layout, it lands in the rubbish bin. Your CV is the first chance you get to make a good impression on a potential employer, and a top-quality CV will considerably boost your chances of getting a face-to-face interview.
