Do you reckon that when describing what you did on a CV the frame should be on how my skills can help the new employer or describe your experiences and leave the rest to a cover letter or a face to face?
I would prefer the former but from I am reading in your post you are suggesting the latter?
- Peroni 15y agoIf the focus is on highlighting how your relevant skills can help the employer then you may have to adjust the CV every time you apply for a role. I suppose my advice is geared more towards getting your foot in the door. There is absolutely nothing wrong with following your CV with an email listing your relevant skills and how they may help. The issue with cover letters is that most people write exactly that, a letter. Employers don't want to read a story, they want concise, easy to read facts that you can substantiate.
