CVs and cover letters workshops

employeur relisant un CV au Forum 2016
Resumes that are hard to read and don't properly highlight your profile, cover letters that are too long, too much like your CV and only talk about you... people are often mistaken when they think they know how to write a CV and cover letter. These are essential tools in your search for internships and jobs, and are often the key to convincing recruiters to invite you to a personal interview.

Objective: Learn to write a personalised CV related to your employment goal.
How can you conceptualize and successfully produce a creative resume? What composed, effective and attractive presentation of yourself should your CV give recruiters, and how will they perceive it? How do you connect to LinkedIn? These are the questions addressed in this workshop, to give every participant the keys to understanding and the tools for building their own personal resumes. Based on active exercises related to recruiting interviews, students learn to be aware of their strengths and qualities, highlight their experiences, and transform the dreaded "other interests" section into a showcase for their unique profiles. Both the content and layout will authentically reflect your pathway and personality, while strategically targeting the advertised position.
