CV Objective
The CV Objective, sometimes also referred to as CV Personal Profile states "What is the next step in
my career?" This should be a short, concise statement that informs the employer what kind of position you are
looking for. The type of position, the role (managerial, supervisor, contractor) should be included as
well.
If you are job hunting it is a good idea to have several CV's with different profiles or
objectives. For example, you can have a CV for a sales supervisor and the other for a shop floor manager. Your
'sales supervisor' CV can highlight achievements in this area, and the CV would be tuned to that particular in
terms of job descriptions and achievements.
Education on your CV
List all of your qualifications in this section. Include all of your education including
certifications from non-academic institutions, especially those that are related to the job vacancy. If you
have more work experience than qualifications, put your work experience before your
qualifications.
