CV 4 Jobs

An interesting recruitment campaign by the Dublin Airport Authority on the Irish Jobs Market web site. Also an interesting article on what happened when the jobs have been removed on Jobs Blog.

60 thousands people have seen the site in a week…. how many thousands have applied? Here are the visitor statistics on teh Jobs Marekt Blog.

If you had enough sending your CV to the recruiters via Job boards, and not really hearing much back from them (besides the auto responses) you might give a try the Social Media for Recruitment – Jobs Market site. How does it work? Just put your profile on, and it is visible online immediately. You can even write your own blog there, and present yourself, your career, your achievements, your interests.

When you publish your profile on the Social Network site as opposed to just another CV database in some job board, your Profile is free to all Employers and they can contact you directly without any burdens. You then choose who do you want to accept and embrace with. Recruitment Social Networks Jobs Market is the future of recruitment. You can publish your existing blog on it, the RSS, the Twitter,….

Worky.com is a new Irish Recruitment Social Networking site.

When you write a good CV for your next Job in Ireland, make sure you do not apply to it on the Jobs sites. Since according to Worky – Job sites don’t work.

Here you can find more about Worky.

What to do with a CV? Upload it to the databases. The employment statistics show us that far more candidates are getting hired by uploading the CV to the online databases than just applying for the jobs on the jobs sites and sending it to the employers. Uploading your CV to the online CV databases assures you will be found when the recruiters will need you (not when you need a job – and send the m the CV out of a blue!). Sending a speculative CV to an Employer creates work on their end. Storing it in the CV database makes your CV available when they will have a need for it. So be there – be found.

There are classic Irish Jobs Sites you can upload your CV to or if you are looking for a project Work – there is an Irish site Flexitimers.

Get your CV in the right CV databases to be found when the employers will need new staff member with your skills. Be found when the right time comes!

CV Format is very vital when you are writing a CV for the Irish job market or any job market. If you ignore this element you will miss out on possible interviews. As outlined in a previous post there is a variety of popular formats but I advise jobseekers to take a fluid approach to CV format and not restrict to set formats.

CV Format – The Functional CV

Functional CV’s are common in the job market but not as popular as the chronological CV. Rather that list your work experience you would dissect your experience into functional exposure – like sales experience or IT experience. This type of CV is beneficial if you have gaps in employment or if you have changed jobs frequently after short periods of time. Functional CV’s are also beneficial if your recent work experience is not relevant to the role that you are applying for. The problem with Functional CV’s is that they can generate suspicion from the recruiter. It can also frustrate recruiters in that it is difficult to identify what you actually worked at. Having said this, these CV’s are necessary if you have some of the above outlined issues.

CV Format is only one ingredient for CV success.

As outlined in previous posts there is much more to CV writing than selecting a CV format. There are many areas to pay attention to including the basics like spelling & grammar but also key areas like CV layout and content. CV4jobs has free many posts with free advice on CV writing so feel free to browse the other posts for information to help you design a good CV. Read this useful article.
