Top tips for a good CV


1.“Make sure you include your full contact details,” says Jose Cofone. “I’ve seen many CVs over the years with no address, phone number or email.”


2.“If you have limited work experience, expand on what you covered during your travel course and any specific achievements, along with any extracurricular activities that demonstrate work ethic and personality,” says Claire Muge of Travel Trade Recruitment.


3.“Don’t be afraid to adjust your CV for every job that you apply for,” says Jose. “Make your CV relevant to each


job application.”

A successful CV will clearly outline relevant work experience, qualifications, skills and extracurricular activities, as well as anything else relevant to the job you’re applying for. “Consider what makes you stand out


from the competition, including grades, relevant work experience, travel, etc,” says Jose Cofone at travel recruitment company Domex Recruitment. Read the job description carefully, and


if the travel company asks for specific skills or experience, make sure these


are clearly conveyed in your CV. “CVs should be about two A4 pages


long and clearly laid out with their qualifications and current/previous work experience,” says Claire Muge. “If they do have work experience then


they should include dates, companies, job titles and the key duties and any achievements in these roles.” Your cover letter or other application


forms will give you the freedom to explain some of the points in your CV in more detail and expand on your skills.
