Evaluating Cvs - Content

In this lecture, we study the content of a good CV and we highlight the most important elements that should be present in a CV. The students are given tools they can use to evaluate the content of their own CVs in relation to the job advertisement or the requirements specified in an MA degree application. In particular, we study a translation job ad and discuss its content. Subsequently, we highlight the most important skills and qualifications that need to be present in a good CV to be submitted for this particular job opportunity.

How Not To Write A Cv

In this lecture, we shed light on some of the most frequent mistakes people tend to make as they write their own CVs. By showing real examples for frequent CV mistakes, students are encouraged to avoid those mistakes in their own CV writing. In particular, students are presented with different CV samples and are asked to identify any mistakes they can find in those samples. Some examples for CV mistakes that are discussed in this lecture include having typos in a CV, writing the title of a job experience without highlighting key achievements and leaving large unexplained time gaps within the CV.
