Introducing our temp of the month, Gabriella Partn

Introducing our temp of the month, Gabriella Partner ✨
Gabriella has been working on assignment through us in real estate for the last few months now and continues to get fantastic feedback from our clients. Gabriella tell us that despite having absolutely no rhythm and being one of the worst dancers to grace the earth, she was a regional gymnast for over 10 years and played the saxophone throughout secondary school 🤸🏼‍♀️ She loves anything chocolate and her homemade caramel coconut slice is the biggest crowd pleaser. The best advice Gabriella has ever been given is “Always listen before you speak”. You’re an absolute pleasure to work with Gabriella, and your sunny disposition is a breath of fresh air! We’re so lucky to have you representing Addstaff 🤩

Is your CV collecting digital dust on your desktop

Is your CV collecting digital dust on your desktop and in need of an update?
Here are a few tips that we’ve put together to think about when refreshing that same old CV that you’ve had for years:

👩🏻‍💻 For a start, your resume should ideally be under a page if possible

👩🏻‍💻 If you need a helping hand, there are many online templates like Google Templates that you can use for the layout

👩🏻‍💻 Pay attention to the order of your CV. Put your most recent work experience at the top – this is the most important part of your resume and is what prospective employers are looking at

👩🏻‍💻 Make sure your contact details are correct and clear and don’t use an inappropriate email address. We’ve all had an account named something like “rocketman9786@yahoo.com” or “alicekitten98@gmail.com” but this probably isn’t the best look professionally. If you need to, create a new account for job hunting and work-related emails

👩🏻‍💻 Get creative and tailor your resume to the job you are applying for – you can even use key words to match those listed in the job description

👩🏻‍💻 Save your CV as a PDF and make sure you name it appropriately when you save it. A good idea is to name it as your first and last name. Don’t just save it as “CV” as this is what will show up when you send it out

👩🏻‍💻 Sometimes a picture can be a great addition, but be careful if selecting a picture and make sure it is appropriate for the industry you are applying in

👩🏻‍💻 Don’t be afraid to include your hobbies and interests. This is a great way to show off your personality. Just make sure not to add too many

👩🏻‍💻 If you have referees listed on your resume, give them a heads up that they might be contacted if you’re actively applying for roles

👩🏻‍💻 Proofread your CV. We cannot stress this enough! If you take away just one of these pearls of wisdom, let it be this. Grammatical and spelling mistakes on a resume can be the difference between getting that interview and not being selected (especially if you have noted attention to detail as one of your strengths 😉). Proofread, and then proofread again ✨
