Advice on writing your CV

We will not change your CV, other than to remove contact details and add our logo, before sending it out to prospective employers. Your CV will tell them a lot about how good a writer you are. This means that your CV should be as good as you can make it.

Your CV should include at least: Personal Details, Nationality, Education and Training, Employment History, Skills and Leisure Interests.

Start the filename of your CV with your name.

Your CV is your first chance to demonstrate your writing skills. You must be clear and concise. Don’t forget to check your CV thoroughly. Look out for any typographical, spelling and grammatical errors.

Limit your CV to two or three sides of A4 paper, if you can.

Writing your covering note

The covering email should contain information for Cherryleaf about your preferences, e.g. location and salary. We also need to know that, for contract work, you can prove your freelance status. We will not send your covering letter to a prospective employer unless with your express permission.
