The CV Store | Your first step to a better career

More than 1 million students in the UK have enrolled on a University course – a new record.

In addition to this, the majority of students are female – as discovered from research carried out by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (Hefce). After drop-out rates were taken into account, women were 27% more likely to get a degree than men!

The UK’s employment rate has risen to 74.8% of the working population and the number of people claiming unemployment benefits fell by 6,200.

Strangely, the number of jobseekers unable to find work has increased by 13,000, despite the rise in employment figues.

For the past few years we have been using an online questionnaire for clients who do not currently hold a CV. We have found a few problems with this, such as people losing internet connections or accidently clearing the form before submitting.

To combat this, we have compiled a Microsoft Word version of the questionnaire. This will enable clients to save the file on their computer and complete it in their own time.

If you feel the online questionnaire was a better idea we would like to hear from you!

Recently, a project was launched (costing well in excess of £1m) in an attempt to erradicate bullying from the workplace. Further information on bullying at work can be found on our website.
