Learning Objectives
  • Write a CV which includes your new skills
Why are we doing this?

Finding a job in tech is your goal. And to achieve that, you must have many tools and skills. One of the most important tools is your CV (Curriculum Vitae).

A strong CV effectively communicates your qualifications, skills, and experiences leaving a positive impression on potential employers.

  • Ensure your CV is up-to-date with the best practices
  • Use your transferable skills and past experiences to describe skills that a developer needs and you already have
  • When writing, think about a friend. How would you describe them? We tend to be more positive about others than ourselves.
  • Use an Applicant Management/Tracking system. See some examples in this guide.

Check out the CYF CV Guide for further advice.
