In this age of technology a CV put together on an old
typewriter and sent ‘snail mail’ is not enough.
A Web CV is simply a copy of your CV produced on a web
page that can be accessed via the Internet rather than
held on your PC at home. It is an ideal addition to your
job hunting toolkit if you intend to spend any time away
from your PC or home e.g. gap year etc.
Imagine being away for the weekend, whether on a wild trip
to Amsterdam or a cosy hotel in Paris. You pop into an
Internet café to find the nearest Italian restaurant and
browse the web to use up the rest of your pre-paid time.
You come across the perfect job! With a Web CV you can
send an email with your CV Web address and password to the
employer or recruitment agency and they can view your CV
immediately.
Indeed, whether you are moving house, taking a gap year
abroad or travelling extensively in your current job you
can give employers and agencies instant access to your CV
and you can apply for any vacancy at any time and continue
with your job hunting.
With a CV Web page you can ring employers or agencies
about a job advertised in the local paper and instead of
just sending your CV by post a few days later, why not
give them your web address and password over the phone?
They can look at your CV while you are still talking. You
will be remembered for being innovative, professional and
efficient.
Even if you apply for a vacancy via email you can include
a link to your CV Web Page or add it to your covering
letter. Employers in every line of business use computer
technology to a small or larger degree. A Web CV will show
employers and recruiters that you are aware of and
embracing the latest technology.
Add a Web CV to your toolkit today and get ahead of the
rest.
