Hello! We can check your CV but it would be easier if you could email it to us using our contact page. By posting it here, you'll have to remove all your contact / personal details (for security reasons), and the formatting might look different.

If you send us an email with your CV attached and we'll get back to you by phone or email.

Hi Salim,

I have ammended your post to remove all personal details.

As a quick guideline:
* Personal profile sounds like something we read everyday - especially from graduates
* You should write the entire CV in third person
* Rather than just list your qualifications, why not expand on the most recent, and relevant ones to showcase your skills
* Your jobs have just been listed - with no details relating to responsibilities / achievements. This is your chance to demonstrate your transferable skills

[britjojo]

And really, transferable skills are immensely important if you are applying for a job that is not related to the previous experience that you have. You can have all the experience in the world that is relevant to the new job, but if you don't make that clear on your CV, the potential employer will dismiss you as a candidate.

[randle]

You need to clairfy your experience in the job fields. Kind of explain what it is that you use to do for the company you worked for.

[shinningstar]

I think it's a plus factor if there's a job description in your CV. Sometimes employers are interested to know your specific employment history.

[etali]

I agree you need to elaborate more, stating in your profile you have a wide range of skills is OK, but it would be better if you could show those skills through the job descriptions for jobs you have held in the past.

I would remove the earlier parts of the education history - Primary and Middle school might be of interest when you're going for your first job, but not when you have much more current history.

If you can talk about some things you did when you were getting your HNC / HND that might be of interest to employers - did you do any placements? What portfolio pieces do you have?

[shinningstar]

You can add more spices to your CV such as your achievements and certifications. I remembered last year when I was chosen as the Most Outstanding Staff of the year. It really impressed the employer. That's why I got the job without any hassle.
