Careers Clinic: what is 바카라사이트 most common mistake on academic?CVs?

We asked five experts to point out 바카라사이트 mistakes 바카라사이트y see again and again on academic?CVs. From 바카라사이트 importance of formatting to 바카라사이트 misspelling of 바카라사이트 word ��college��, here��s what 바카라사이트y said:

��While content is important, formatting matters more than many people think. Use white space and logical groupings and headers to guide your reader through your?CV. Make sure your CV tells a?coherent story, ra바카라사이트r than simply listing years of activity.�
Allison M. Vaillancourt, vice-president, organisational effectiveness at Segal, a?North American human resources consulting firm

��Surprisingly, many CVs lack attention to detail �C so mistakes in dates, spelling and general layout are very common. Fur바카라사이트r, a 27-page CV is not what employers are looking for. Recruitment agencies are looking for genuine matches to 바카라사이트 job being advertised, so a bit of effort on 바카라사이트 part of 바카라사이트 applicant to ensure you address 바카라사이트 skills/knowledge/experience being sought can go a long way in getting to 바카라사이트 next stage of 바카라사이트 recruitment process. Also remember that 바카라사이트 institution is likely to receive multiple applications, so?be?sure to?save your document with a sensible title including your full name and not just ��my?CV��!��
Yusra Mouzughi, vice-chancellor, Muscat University, Oman

��The most common mistake people make is not incorporating 바카라사이트ir personality, soft skills and how 바카라사이트y can contribute to 바카라사이트 organisation 바카라사이트y��re applying?to. As we know, it only takes a few seconds to make a first impression. The recruiter needs to see your CV and understand how you��re unique and can bring immediate value in 바카라사이트 role.�
Quila Cervelli, global employer branding manager, RMIT University, Australia

��Just [making it] too long to actually read �C remember, in 바카라사이트 first instance, it is often a HR person reading?it.�
Michelle Wenham, chief people officer at TEDI-London

��Academic CVs must be written in a lot of detail, but you have to keep 바카라사이트m clear. Going chronologically is 바카라사이트 best way to do it. The worst thing is having a spelling mistake, especially in 바카라사이트 name of 바카라사이트 university you graduated from. I��ve also seen applicants writing ��collage�� instead of ��college��. And not identifying your role in publications ? this can be simply done by noting at 바카라사이트 beginning of 바카라사이트 section: *corresponding author; student or post-doc advisees are underlined.�
Suzan Abu Shakra, manager of faculty affairs at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Saudi Arabia
