Get Noticed
Time and Money
• Recruitment can take a long time
• Some companies only skim CVs
Time and Money are in short supply! This means
that a Recruiter may only get to look at your CV for
a few seconds.
Make sure that it stands out!

So What?
Always highlight your value – don’t lead the Recruiter
to think “So What?”
Instead of:
“Created marketing plan for annual fundraiser.”
Try:
“Created marketing plan for annual fundraiser
that generated an income of over £100,000.”
