CV is your passport for your various interviews. It is therefore your business card, it is a reflection of your career and your personality.
Put the chances on your side by treating the latter with a clear and airy presentation.
What is an original CV?
To prepare an original CV, you have to be creative and have done a lot of research:
* The original CV is not suitable for everyone, however it may have the advantage to attract the attention of recruiters who receive hundreds of CV that are all alike.
* Recruiters therefore build quickly an idea of the application by reading the CV very quickly.
* However, the more candidates there are, the more the recruiter will be in a logic to eliminate CVs to save time.
* He will look at the content of CV, but also the way it was written.
What is said about the original CV?
Opinions differ on the original CV:
Negative opinion
* Some would say that a CV too original would likely disqualify a candidate, because the recruiter might think that the applicant does not present useful and concrete skills, but rather original, which can be disruptive for the recruiter.
* In conclusion, an original form can blur the codes to which recruiters are accustomed.
Positive opinion
* Other people will say that the original CV has a less conventional style than traditional CVs and is a good way to put an application in value. It will distinguish itself from other candidates.
* One can think that the original CV will however be better adapted in the advertising, computer science and/or computer graphics sector where the creation is appropriate and rigorous.
What style of original CV?
To try to stand out from conventional CVs, some candidates will use the original CV which can take many forms:
* CV on color pages, with more elaborate graphics and design,
* the very creative CV created with a flash animation system through the Internet,
* the CV online with a showcase on the web,
* the CV in mini CD format,
* specialized websites also offer original CV templates on color, design and form.
In any case, it is your skills and qualities that will make all the difference whether it is an original CV or a traditional CV.
