In the sales and similar industries it is very simple to put together an effective CV for decision makers to read. The secret is to consider what that decision maker is looking for. Therefore the following considerations are vital:
- Make it concise and not too lengthy. Between 2-4 page is fine as nobody wants to read a biography.
- Make sure your key personal information is easy to find.
- Write a brief personal statement highlighting your strengths and also what you are looking for. If you are in the sales industry your results are the most important thing.
- Therefore ensure that your CV clearly highlights your targets and exactly what you achieved over the last 3-5 years. If you leave this off it makes people wonder why.
- If you have not achieved target for whatever reason you can add a brief summary as to why but clear concise information on your results is important.
