How to Get the Job You Really Want
New Revised and Updated Edition
When the original edition of 'The Perfect CV' was first published it became an instant bestseller. However, career trends have changed dramatically in the last ten years and the current shift is away from "good, steady jobs for life" to an era of short-term, freelance and consultancy positions.
Tom and Ellen Jackson have now completely updated 'The Perfect CV' to make it relevant for today. They show you how to:
- Discover and define your career goals
- Pinpoint the jobs that are right for you
- Prepare a capabilities portfolio, which focuses on your talents rather than the number of jobs you have held
- Create a perfect, job-winning CV
- Use e-mail, the talent banks of the Internet and electronic job searches to further your career.
'The Perfect CV' includes 100 samples of winning CVs, easy-to-use drafting forms and special CVs for recent graduates. There is also excellent advice on how to negotiate your salary and how to write a perfect cover letter.
