What Work Leicestershire
Writing your CV
Keep it brief and to the point – no more than two pages of A4.
3 3 Use a computer, use the same font throughout and use clear headings.
3 3 Start with your name, address, telephone number and email address.
3 3 Write your current position or qualification first and work backwards. Tailor your CV to
the job that you are applying for!
3 3 Include any achievements or courses you’ve been on outside of school (for example,
passing music exams, getting a driving licence, getting a first aid certificate
or doing voluntary work).
3 3 Include a covering letter
with your
CV.

Jon
3 3 Read through
the CV before
you send it
off, checking
for any
mistakes.
3 3 Make a copy –
you may need to
use it again and
it will be easier to
update.
