I'm 16 and searching for jobs. It's so hard to find a place that's willing to hire a young person or is not looking for previous experience. This is very helpful
Have you tried looking into apprenticeships? Sometimes there are good schemes that can help :)
As someone who was in this position (granted 8 years ago), the way I got out of it was to get on as many work experiences as possible and applied to loads of apprenticeships afterwards
Definitely lie or embellish regarding experience for low skill jobs…. Once you’re in the interview it’s all in your hands 🙌
@@AinChiara Volunteer in an area your interested in. Do not lie on a CV, you can be sacked for doing so and do you really want to be that person?
Dont putbyour age on a cv
I'm 52 and just been made redundant. I have to update a cv and I have an idea what I have to do but trying to put years of experience into a couple of sentences is a proper headache. Thank you for this video. It has been a great help!
This made my week, thank you for taking the time to write this, I will keep my fingers crossed for you! ❤
How is it goingv
Very helpful! Quick, to the point and elegantly presented thank you.
Thank you Frankie!
Thank you! I am in process of writing of my first CV and your advice helps GREATLY! This is all so confusing and new to me and so much stuff! Thank you
Happy to help 😊
I have some questions:
1. I’ve been rejected from about 50 interviews. (In the last one they found the excuse that I could have given more examples. There must have been 20 to 30 perfectly given interviews with no feedback at all. The feedback I got from a lot of them is that they went for another candidate).
2. Before the pandemic it only took around 4 interviews to secure a new role
3. I went to a top business school and have half a decade of experience working for blue chip companies
4. *I’ve been given the advice by some corporate operatives that I could still somehow secure a role at a top company even if I’ve been unemployed for half a dozen years*
*Is it discrimination? Is it bias because there is money involved? I would just like to know what is going on as I’m being forced to retire early abroad/take a career break in the summer*..
Good advice throughout - thanks for your time.
Happy to help!
This is amazing you have covered all of the points that I need to now.
Glad it was helpful 😊
Ain, thank you for this video. The info is really clear and easy to understand, I think my cv is currently following those tips. I'll be back to tell you if I got a job.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻😊

I loved the video, I ask you, do you give personalized virtual English classes?
Hope this video was useful and do let me know if you have any questions! ☺
Do you have any uk design plz give me
Hi! Great video :) would you definitely advise bullet points rather than long paragraphs? Thanks!
Thanks Livy!! I wouldn't say so, it depends on what type of experience you're sharing and what job you're applying for. For me it's much easier to summarise my key responsibilities in bullet points, but I've seen great CVs in other formats too! x
thank u so much supper helpful
Nice video.. I hope it will help me. ❤️Thanks alot.
Thanks so much!! And good luck 🍀
Im an international student(9th grade) who is aplying for a summer course going to be held this summer and i need to prepeare a cv. Should it contain my secondary school info which has nothing to do about summer course.
Hey Ain! Thanks so much for the video. It could not have come at a better time as I have applying for some publishing positions on my to-do list for this weekend :) Is there anyway you could give some tips for a personal statement next? I never know what the best tone to strike is. How much wiggle room do I have to show personality? Should the tone be formal and professional or am I allowed to add a little more voice? I struggle with trying to find what I feel like is an acceptable balance every time. You touched on this when you talked about having your friend read your personal statement, but if you have other tips, I'm all ears! Thanks again!
Hey Marissa, thanks so much for watching and glad this has been of a little help! I'd say ideally you'd want something formal to be professional but also true to your personality traits. Ask yourself if a friend would recognise you in your statement, I find that helps me to make sure it's not too intense :) x
@@AinChiara Thanks so much! I appreciate the reply :)
Very useful and insightful, thanks for sharing, l will be back
Great video! Would just add to make sure you use correct spelling, grammar and spacing and check multiple times. How you write on your CV says a lot about you. and how good or bad you would be as potential employee. You don’t want potential employers to think you are unprofessional.
Those are brilliant tips, thank you for sharing!
I'm 17 and struggling to find employment, hopefully your advice helps, thankyou ❤️
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻💕
Can I know what's the music :x It's really addicting
thank u rlly helpful
Glad to hear that! 🙏🏻
Some nice tips 👍
Thank you!
What free templates do you recommend?
My picture is on my cv - my cv is one page and I landed a job immediately - it is down to the type of job you are going for and making yourself stand out and be unique is key too. One page is relevant for more professional and specialist roles - just a suggestion.
Absolutely, always important to look into industry specific advice. However in the UK pictures are a no go.
this was a really helpful video. I am a musician and I've done so much freelance and volunteer work that I am not sure how to compact it down. Would it be best me putting something like; "I have done lots of freelance and volunteer work including..." It would mean I can compact my CV down and list just a few.
I'd focus on listing the most relevant experience to the job you're applying for 👍🏻
Thank you really
♥️
can i join your company?? i am a software developer
I would want to know is graphic designer has good career option in UK for overseas people
It's not my area of expertise, but I'm pretty sure there is a fair amount of request for graphic designers!
@@AinChiara ok thank you for your reply
@@ashishrana8126 Not a graphic designer but i know UE design is growing and is in demand however I studied UE/UX design years ago
Do I have to attach passport and experience certificate along with my CV? 🙏
Not unless clearly stated in the application!
@@AinChiara Thank you very much for your reply😊🙏
please make cover letter for me ☺️
British people seem to love a basic and simplistic designs
yes, absolutely!
But they will just look at when you finished high school to get your age :/
Pls give me cv formet
Mam search any job for me 🙏
It's most humble request 🙏🙏
bruh imma bout to be the best worker in tescos

Me: (Trying to get in McDonalds...)
I didn't even need a cv to get in >_>
You don’t need a cv for McDonald’s lol
Mam can you review my cv Please
Thank you for the information. It's always hard for me to get through a presentation when the presenter ends every sentence with vocal fry but easier with an English accent. I guess I'm a racist.
I am only looking for UK cv format but i found a beautiful woman and its more interesting to watch your video, i like your eye contact to the viewers while you speak thank you i learned a lot.
So cute you are
Pls review my cv
