CV TIP – DON’T SLIP UP

In the last few months, we have seen a recurring theme of the MOST Important information missing from job seeker CVs.

CVs are usually received via an automated applicant tracking system. It sucks in all your details and gives us a heads up that you have applied for work.

BUT – if you haven’t updated your CV for a while it’s often where we all get tripped up.

Wrong email address …. Incomplete or wrong mobile and possibly the wrong location where you are now living (example: previously Christchurch and you moved to Auckland)

Often when you apply online you may be using a new email. You will be asked to provide your contact details – and they may also be new.

DON’T  push send until you have checked that everything matches on your CV and Application details.

PLEASE  also remember that your CV is a bit like your shop front ... if your email address is quirky or funny to you (when you first created it) you might want to rethink it if its not professional.

Don't be afraid to talk to our team if you want to apply for a job and are unsure about anything. We want to support you in the best way possible into the right job.

You can email jobs@ergnz.co.nz to ask any questions.
