EMPLOYEE - CV / Resume
Your CV / Resume is the first piece of hard evidence on which a potential employer can judge you. Consider it to be the brochure that is marketing you. Our advise is to keep it as simple as possible. We would recommend you to use some time to fill in your data to the sample CV attached on this page. This sample is well-known in Norway and it is short and informative. The customer needs to see straight away if you have the qualifications are looking for and they will do that best by receiving the CV in this format.
If you choose to make your own, we have the following recommendations so you can create that all important positive impression.
Responding - When responding to us with your CV, you should include a covering letter which draws attention to the elements of your career / experience which are most suited to the position you apply for.
The content of your cover letter should be brief and structured, avoiding lengthy repetition of information covered in your CV.

EMPLOYEE - CV / Example
THE CV SHOULD CONTAIN:
Preparation
A badly prepared CV challenges the credibility of its contents. If you cannot produce a professional document about yourself, an employer may conclude that you are unlikely to have the competence to fill an important job.
Bullet Points
Bullet points break up a CV well; however, they should not just consist of one or two words.
Each bullet point should give the reader a feel for:
- Software used on each project
- When you are/were responsible for a particular task (primary influence)
- When you assisted on a particular task (secondary influence)
- Break down projects into specific tasks. Any ad hoc projects must be backed up with examples of issues that were tackled on this basis.
- Highlight achievements to demonstrate your successes
Honesty
Do not make false or exaggerated claims. If the interviewer identifies inconsistencies in your CV, you will not be successful.
Review
It may take several drafts to develop the right style. When you think you have got it, ask a couple of friends/colleagues.
