Study Task 9 - CV

Study Task 9 - CV

So far the only sort of CV I have really had is applications for 6th form and university so pretty much everything in the CV workshop was new and important for me.

-I didn't know that there were different types of CVs; standard, skills, artist and creative
-I also have learnt that it is important to create a LinkedIn profile, not yet but after university, which I believe we have a talk on next year
-Need to keep the CV plain but make it attractive and have 'your voice' in it

I appreciate that when you make a CV you tailor it for the specific thing you are applying for but I have just created one which contains all the possible information on which I can filter through for different applications.... this is a CV which contains all of my skills in the broader sense of art...




Interview techniques


  • First impressions are important!
  • Smile - enthusiastic and happy
  • Strong hand shake
  • Confident body language
  • Check your knowledge of the job and place your are applying for!
  • They might ask you challenging questions to see how you respond
  • Have a little introduction about yourself prepared
  • Be honest!
  • STAR (situation, task, action, result) for a competency based interview
