– Specify the dates you worked for each organisation.
– Specify your job title. E.g Head of Sales
– Specify the name of the organisation you worked for, along with its location.
– Give a compelling description of what your role entailed.
Top tip: Always, always include any un-paid, voluntary or temporary employment. It can be a valuable addition to your CV.
