The curriculum vitae is an important document. It serves as your ticket to get into an interview. It is important that your CV looks neat and presentable. Here are some tips on how you should design your CV:
- Just like a regular electronic mail, include your curriculum vitae in the body of the text.
- Keep it simple and short.
- Use readable fonts like Times New Roman, Verdana or Tahoma. Don’t use Comic Sans MS, please.
- State your email address first, then your home address and contact details.
- Do not forget to put the seminars/trainings you’ve attended, qualifications and work experiences.
- Be clear in stating your e-mail subject (e.g. Vacancy for Staff Nurse).
Applying for a medical job is just the same as applying for another job. Just make the most out of it.
