Always avoid these three common mistakes when compiling your CV:
- Outdated or incorrect references
If potential employers are unable to reach your listed references because they are either outdated or incorrect, it instantly raises a red flag. This can easily create the impression that you have something to hide pertaining to your previous job/s.
- Incorrect contact details
Most employers/agencies do not call you more than once. If there are mistakes with your listed contact details and they are unable to reach you, they will move on to the next available candidate.
- Fabricating information
Always be truthful and avoid making up information on your CV. If it is found that you lied on your resume, you could get into big trouble and jeopardise any future job opportunities.
