How To Save Your First CV From The Recycle Bin | Independent Institute of Education

Relebogile had a chat with Wonga Ntshinga, Senior Head of Programme: Faculty of ICT at The Independent Institute of Education about the importance of putting together a CV that will grab the recuriters attention in 8 seconds. Wonga says you spent hours crafting your first CV, showcasing your school years, qualifications and experience, but employers don’t even give it 9 seconds of attention before moving on to the next one. Although the job market is tough even for people who have years of experience, it is particularly challenging for young graduates applying for entry-level positions, and first-time CV writers must put in extra effort to develop a stand-out CV.
