CV & Job Application Writing
How CVs are really read, the formula for writing results, and the four-paragraph cover letter.
What you'll get: In the first screening round recruiters don't read your CV to understand you — they scan for reasons to cut. This ~90-minute course covers surviving that round: the four facts that belong in the top half of page one, formatting that screening software can read, a three-part formula for every bullet, five sources of numbers when you think your job can't be measured, a three-sentence summary, how to read a job ad for its 2–3 real requirements, tailoring in 15 minutes, and the four-paragraph cover letter.
Who is this course for?
- Professionals preparing for a job search

After this course, you will
- Format a CV to survive the scan and the screening software
- Write experience as measurable results rather than a list of duties
- Read a job ad and tailor your CV in 15 minutes
