Looking for Employment
What do a job applicant needs when looking for employment? This is one of the pertinent information every applicant should place in his right mind in order to prepare him for a job hunting activity he would involve as soon as he is ready. Remember, you cannot just take for granted your job hunting activity because it would later described what kind of life you have. Do you want to join those millions of jobless individuals or make it to joining the working force this time? Yes, your right decision is needed because if you are just taking this for granted your application from various companies you would only fail. You may be wasting your time and effort.
The following are the most important thing you should prepare when you are aiming for a position from a very reputable company.
• Cover Letter – The Cover Letter is one of the things you should prepare when applying for a job. There are tips writing a cover letter you can find in the internet. If you have enough time you can try doing a research about cover letters. The are many in the net which may guide you clearly what to do and where to begin.
• CV Resume – The next thing you should also give priority is CV Resume. It is where your qualifications can be located by your supposed employer.

Generally two well-known words are résumé and curriculum vitae; both are not containing same meaning. A résumé, commonly written "resume," is a document that contains a summary or listing of relevant job experience and education. It is closely related to a similar document, a curriculum vitae, which focuses more on education, publications, and other accomplishments. Both are typically used to screen applicants, often followed by an interview, when seeking employment. The résumé or CV is typically the first item that a potential employer encounters regarding the job seeker.

curriculum vita is Latin meaning "course of life" and résumé is French meaning "summary". In the business world, the word résumé (also spelled resumé and resume) is used especially in the United States and in English Canada. Curriculum vitae and "CV" are used in the United Kingdom in all contexts, with résumé having very little currency.
North America, Australia, and India the terms "résumé" and "CV" may be used interchangeably. However, a résumé more often has a free-form organizational style and is used for seeking employment in the private sector, whereas a curriculum vitae (also called a vita, but not curriculum vita,) usually has a more standardized look and format for the purpose of seeking positions in academic or educational institutions. Another difference is that a résumé tends to be more descriptive and tailored for a specific purpose or target audience, whereas a curriculum vitae tends to be organized in a way that presents data about one's self in a compact fashion, with a clear chronology. For example, a résumé may begin with a statement about a personal goal, followed by a list of most significant accomplishments or characteristics in order of significance, while a curriculum vitae often includes complete and unembellished lists of data such as educational institutions attended, degrees received, positions held, professional affiliations, publications authored, etc. A résumé may or may not be represented by the person as a complete history of themselves without omission, whereas a curriculum vitae usually implies that there are no omissions, and in particular, no temporal gaps.
A résumé is a summary typically limited to one or two pages of size A4 or Letter-size highlighting only those experiences and credentials that the author considers most relevant to the desired position. Simple résumés may be organized in different ways.

1 - What MUST appear in your CV
• well structured information about your experience, skills, knowledge and potential that is appropriate to the level and type of role you will be applying for – a CV must position you properly and immediately resonate with recruitment professionals
• that is all; there are no other rules; - you can write a CV well, you can write a CV badly or you can stand head and shoulders above all the other candidates by preparing a brilliant CV
The Traditional CV
This is still used by a lot of people to make themselves appear boring by having the kind of layout and headings that people used to use 30 years ago when all documents were prepared by typists with limited possibilities in terms of design. The style was like a list and began with the unnecessary title Curriculum Vitae, usually more prominent than the candidate’s name! Other inclusions might be:
Name: rather an obvious sort of title
Address: trivia that agencies take off the CV in any case
Telephone: why did this ever need a heading?
Date of Birth good place to shoot yourself in the foot
Marital Status ditto
Education some people actually go back to primary school
Career so many ghastly possibilities here I could never list them all
Memberships I’m not kidding you
Publications yipes
Interests usually profoundly boring

What is wrong with the traditional CV ?

1. rambling, boring, makes you seem like a poor communicator
2. no good at all if experience and not education is your strong point
3. fails to position your skills and achievements effectively
4. becomes boring and repetitive and sounds like a set of job definitions
5. has the feel of a of list that lacks energy and excitement
6. does not fit modern patterns of employment and career change
7. places attention on trivia
8. no opportunity to match your talents to the jobs you will apply for
When recruiters received such documents they had to work hard to discover who the candidate was, what they could offer and what exactly they had so far achieved in life. Everything was shrouded in mystery, conformity, formality and the fear of being different.
When people first started asking candidates to be more relevant they called the traditional style of CV the chronological CV because it slavishly concentrated on dates. Actually, the chronology of your career will ALWAYS be there in your CV, no matter what type of document you think you are writing.
What people tended to call the newer and more expressive CV that recruiters said they wanted was the functional or skills-based CV. Some people take that so literally that they follow the American habit implied in the templates in their WP programs and scatter virtually all the first page of their CV with embarrassing superlatives.
On the other hand:
One elegantly integrated, usually 2 pages, carefully planned and architected CV can easily include all of these things:
1. A brief skills/achievement/functional summary that positions you and catches attention
2. A more detailed summary of your knowledge, training, skills, education (which can either come in second place or be demoted to after your career if the career is more impressive)
3. A convincing account of your career that also includes enough context to show how you work
4. Whatever personal information is relevant to your application or might reasonably and legally be required in the sector/country you are applying within
