10 CV mistakes that employers hate seeing

When hiring managers look at your CV, they will form the first impression about you and your suitability for the position. More often than not, your CV will only have a few seconds to grab the employer’s attention and should ideally leave them wanting to read more and invite you in for an interview.



As your first and primary ticket, it is critical that you get this communication tool right and use it as a springboard to the next stage of the job application. The career experts at Bayt.com identify some of the most common CV mistakes to avoid at all costs.

 

1. Missing contact details

Make sure your CV clearly provides your full name, address and contact details for the prospective employer to reach you. Include the phone number and email address that you regularly check. This may sound obvious but, surprisingly, many candidates will send their CV with missing or outdated contact information. On top of that, if your email address reads unprofessionally (e.g. Crazyguy121) or is strictly for work, it may be worthwhile to change it and opt for a more professional one.

2. No career objective

Every CV should begin with a clear and concise objective citing the position you are seeking and a supporting statement summarising the reasons you are highly qualified for the position. Here is an example: ‘Seeking a senior marketing analyst role where I can apply my five years of experience in marketing analysis gained with a leading Fortune 500 FMCG company as well as my skills in copywriting, strategic analysis, business development, client servicing and media planning.’ Remember, the goal of the CV is to outline what you can do for your prospective employer, not what your employer can do for you.

3. Using passive language

Remember to use active verbs that show leadership and accomplishments rather than weak passive words. Words like achieved, spearheaded, managed, exceeded, pioneered, led, created, developed and motivated convey an active, dynamic successful professional. Substitute all weak listings and descriptions for sentences that detail your accomplishments without uncertainty. Instead of ‘Managed the firm’s emerging markets equity portfolio’ try ‘Managed and achieved a 34% annual return on the firm’s $200 million emerging markets equity portfolio.’

 

4. Using first person

Do not start sentences with the word ‘I’ or use the personal pronoun in your job descriptions. Keep your sentences short and dynamic and begin them wherever possible with strong action words. Instead of ‘I managed…,’ you can start with ‘managed…’ and follow with more details.

5. Generic CVs

Every CV should be focused on the particular job and industry you are targeting. If you are applying for jobs in two different industries, then make sure you have different CVs that cater specifically to the different skills required in each industry. The best CVs are customised for the individual job at hand and emphasise objectives, skillsets, past accomplishments, aptitudes and qualifications that are uniquely relevant to that particular role. Generic, unfocused CVs rarely make the mark.

6. Poor formatting

Your CV will get no more than a cursory glance if the formatting is poor and it shows bad planning, poor organisation or clutter. Adhere to an acceptable format that is professional, simple and attractive to the eye. Use bullet points wherever possible rather than long prose and be consistent with font, headings, spaces and layout. Avoid coloured paper, illustrations, and glitzy touches. If you are applying for a creative position, show your creativity in your portfolio, not by jazzing up your CV. Make sure your CV is no longer than one page if you are an entry-level candidate and a maximum of two pages if you are a seasoned professional.

 

7. Typos and errors

Spelling mistakes, poor grammar and glaring errors are a surefire way to get your CV dismissed and stop the job search process in its tracks. Read and reread your CV before sending it to the employer, run a spellcheck and have someone else read the CV for an extra round before sending it out. Remember, just like any detail on your CV can help you, it can also ruin your shot at getting the job.

8. Omitting key facts

Educational qualifications and professional experience must be included in your CV with proper dates, titles, institution names and descriptions. Use plenty of keywords in describing your role and accomplishments in each job as well as in the skills section. If you are unsure what keywords to use, read the job description thoroughly and ask peers in the industry regarding the skills and qualifications that are particularly relevant for this role.

 

9. Lies

If you have not finished a university degree, make that clear on your CV without neglecting to include the coursework you completed and the educational accomplishments you gained. Similarly, do not list promotions, jobs, titles, dates or job descriptions that do not accurately reflect your work history. Most companies run very detailed background checks. Lies and exaggerations that are not glaringly obvious on the CV or during the interview will often be discovered at the reference or background check.

10. Poor targeting

Make sure you send your CV to the right person at the company with a short, concise cover letter that personalizes it and summarizes your skills, objectives and the value you will bring to the job. Spend some time researching who heads the division you are targeting and what the most relevant competencies are to focus on in your correspondence. Your CV is more likely than not to be disregarded completely if you send it to the wrong person or to a nameless ‘To whom it may concern.’

What clothes to hang, what clothes to fold

To hang or to fold? It’s a question we’ve all asked at one time or another, especially when it comes to items like jeans, knits, and tees. In the interest of keeping your fall wardrobe crisp, here’s a quick fold- or-hang guide.

HANG

Silk, 100% cotton, rayon, satin, and velvet blouses – This one’s a no-brainer: Always place blouses on hangers with a solid grip. (Velvet slimline hangers are life-changing: They’re strong, and they create an abundance of valuable real estate in your closet.) If you’re hanging button-downs, make sure the top button is secured—this keeps the collar from developing pesky creases.

Trousers and dress pants – Use clips to hang these guys at the waist or the hem (so they hang vertically in your closet), or fold them along the crease and drape over the bar of a hanger.

Dresses and jumpsuits – Always hang your dresses and jumpsuits vertically on hangers, unless they’re heavily embellished.

Jackets (leather, suede, down), overcoats, and blazers – Blazers and casual jackets can be hung on a regular-grip hanger, but heavy coats will fare best on a curved suit hanger, which can handle their weight and will keep their shape.

Dress skirts – Pleated skirts, silk skirts, suede skirts, and leather skirts should be hung at the waist with clipped hangers.

 

FOLD

Sweaters – Even with slimline hangers, wool, cashmere, and angora will stretch when hung, so it’s always best to fold your sweaters to keep their shape. That said, if you’re tight on shelf space, fold your sweater in half once and lay it over the bar of a hanger.



Casual skirts – Denim skirts or thick-knit skirts can be folded on a shelf or slung over a hanger’s bar.

Heavy pants – Jeans, cords, leather leggings, cargos: These are thick enough that folding won’t cause them to wrinkle.

Embellished evening gowns – Loosely folding an evening gown keeps its shape better than hanging if it’s got heavy embellishments. Don’t just shove it on a shelf though: Loosely wrap it in tissue paper, and keep it in a box.

T-shirts – Fold all short-sleeve and long-sleeve tees.

EATING BREAKFAST BOOSTS YOUR HEALTH.

CLICK HERE FOR MORE PHOTOS

Want to make 2017 the year you focus on your health? Wellness goals are admirable throughout the year, but too often well-meaning people make a common mistake that sabotages their efforts: they skip breakfast.

It’s a daily choice that millions of people shrug off as no big deal, but research proves breakfast is an important component in how you feel throughout the day. Fueling up solely on java may perk you up momentarily, but it doesn’t do the trick long-term.

Consider these 5 reasons why breakfast boosts your health and should not be ignored.

Awakens your metabolism

When you eat breakfast, you “break the fast” from your sleep periods and give your metabolism a wake-up call. When you sleep, your metabolism slows and you burn fewer calories while you rest. By eating a nutritious breakfast, you are sparking your internal engine so it burns calories and gives you more energy throughout the day.

Helps you focus

Hunger can make people irritable and it’s hard to focus on work when your stomach is grumbling. By eating a balanced breakfast of fat, protein and fibre, the food is processed into energy, allowing you to feel fuller longer.

Steadies the burn

When you skip breakfast, the body panics for nutrition, so come lunch you tend to overeat. This in turn overwhelms the metabolism and you end up with peaks and pits of energy throughout the day. For steady energy and efficient calorie-burning, eat a nutritious breakfast and other meals on schedule.

Nepali comedy Khas khus 53 (29 June 2017 ) 

Encourages healthy choices

People who eat breakfast tend to make healthier choices throughout the day. According to MayoClinic.org, “People who eat breakfast tend to eat a healthier overall diet, one that is more nutritious and lower in fat. In contrast, people who skip breakfast are more likely to skip fruits and vegetables the rest of the day, too”.

Sets a good example

When you eat breakfast, it sets a good example for your family. Plus, sitting down to a nutritious meal is a positive way to start the day together.

BEAT THE SUMMER HIT AND STAY FIT

Just because the summer weather is here doesn’t mean that it’s time to join a gym to avoid the heat outside. All you need to do is to follow these steps to ensure that you keep yourself safe while doing your regular exercise routine this summer season.

Mind the time

It’s no secret that you should avoid the hottest time during the day, which is essentially between 10 am to 3pm. Early mornings are the best time to work out during summer; you can enjoy the early morning fresh cool air and who knows maybe even the sunrise.

Keep your cool

Black absorbs more heat, why? It’s time for a little science 101. Since light is an energy, the more light an object absorbs, the more it can generate heat. In colors, black absorbs more heat as it does not reflect light at all. So take note that the lighter the color, the more it will help reflect heat. Wear loose cotton-made materials or ‘hi-tech’ sportswear that is made from materials to keep your cool.

Apply and protect

Did you know that even on a cloudy day you can get sunburned? So never ever forget to apply sunscreen before heading outside. Use a sunscreen that has SPF45 and above to be sure.

Stay hydrated

Before you go out, drink a glass or two of water. Carry a bottle of water when you’re out for your exercise routine. Take a sip – not big gulps – every 15 minutes, even when you’re not thirsty. When you’re done with your workout, have a few more glasses of water.

Listen to your body

This is the most important one of all. Stop immediately if you’re feeling dizzy, faint or nauseous. Never ignore these signs that your body is giving you.

Pick up the right sport

Some sports become more popular in the summer and can help to keep you cool. If you’re near a body of water, water sports like surfing, swimming, and diving allow you to stay cool under water’s refreshing and cooling properties while still keeping you outdoors. And yes, believe it or not, water sports do make you much stronger and more fit when practiced regularly.

Exercise in short, regular bursts outside

There’s no doubt that the heat can be oppressive, but what you can do is stay outside to exercise in short bursts throughout the day rather than one long, concentrated stretch. Instead of exercising outside for an hour, try exercising in four 15-minute segments throughout the day. As long as you’re exercising at your target heart rate, the quality of your exercise regimen should not suffer. This way, you can get the workout your body needs without exposing yourself to the sun for long periods of time.

GET ON THE ROAD TO SUCCESS WITH THESE 6 EASY FOLLOW UP TIPS.

We always say we want to succeed, but the question is what are we doing to achieve it? In order to be successful, you need to set goals for yourself. Why? Because without it, you lack focus and direction. You can't just say 'I want this or that' and expect things to just fall out of the sky. You need to take action, and you need to determine what you want to accomplish. So, really, the road to your success begins once you set your goals.

First things first decide:

Think about what you want to do and work towards it. It doesn't really matter what it is, as long as it's something you want to do or achieve. Does it excite or motivate you? It should be something that you want to do for yourself and not for something or someone else.

Watch Video

Write it down:

Once you've decided on your goals, put it in writing. When you write your goals down, a part of your goal is already accomplished. It makes the intangible thoughts in your head real once you can see them on paper. Also, try to be specific. Mention how you will be able to determine once you've reached your goals and when you'd want to achieve it. Describe your goal. For example, say ' I want to plant basil, mint and thyme and make a herb garden in my kitchen by the end of may, rather than 'I want to do some gardening.'

Tell Someone:

Telling someone you know and trust about your goals increases the chance that you'll stick to them. When someone else aside from you knows about your goals, they can check in on your progress from time to time. Find a friend or a mentor who can motivate you and occasionally kick your behind when you're not following through your goals.

Break it down:

If you think your goals are too big to accomplish, break them down into manageable actions. Breaking a goal down helps you be more specific. Also, you're more likely to stay on track towards your bigger goal bu having several smaller goals.

Get excited:

Your goals should motivate and excite you. They should be a source of joy in your life and one of the main reason you get out of bed in the morning. I f your goals don't excite you, you need to start reevaluating them.

Celebrate:

Once you reach a certain goal, take the time to enjoy it and thank those who've helped you accomplish it. Think about what you enjoyed and learned along the way and then begin to set new goals again.

How: They can be sprinkled over your cereals, added to breads or mixed in smoothies. When soaked in water, the seeds achieve a gel-like consistency and can be used for weight loss.

Flax seed

Why: Flax seed is known for its dietary fibre content that is soluble and acts as an excellent laxative. It also has fatty acids that are anti-inflammatory and good for blood pressure. In addition to all this, this super food also retards tumour growth and lowers the risk of cancer.
