Unemployment rates may be at a 13 year high but here at Sonru we are very optimistic that if job seekers follow a few small guidelines their chances of getting that job can be vastly improved.

So here goes: Tip #1 this is really simple and relates to your CV. The purpose of your CV is to get the interview, to get in the door so you can get that job. Thus your CV has got to be tailored to fit the Job description. HR’s selection process is simple. They take the job description in one hand and your CV in the other, if they see a match you get the call! So make sure your CV shows that you have an aptitude to complete the tasks outlined in the job description. The bottom line is a one CV fits all jobs approach is not likely to get you an interview. So tailor your CV ; it will be worth the tiny extra effort it takes.
