Useful Resources


How to prepare a good CV

"Curriculum vitae (CV)" and "resume" are two documents which differ in terms of content. CV provides details of your career while resume gives a brief and concise summary of your skills and experience. Though sometimes these two terms are used interchangeably, a detailed description of your previous work experience, i.e. CV, is preferred.

CV is an important document in job application and never underestimates its value. It gives prospective employers the first impression of you. Your CV needs to tell an employer why you are the best candidate for the job.
