This means you have just over a minute to sell yourself and your strengths to the reader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is easier said than done. Three-quarters of CVs are rejected due to bad grammar, spelling, or poor visual layout. So what makes a successful job application?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are our top tips for structuring your Associate Lawyer CV, to help you stand out from the crowd, and get noticed by legal recruiters and law firms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-overview\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The objective of your CV is to help you stand out from the crowd and to secure an interview. It should create a positive impression about you in the mind of the interviewer before you meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some advertisements have significant response levels so keeping your CV brief and punchy is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also needs to be professional, business-like and easy to read; focusing on your key achievements and most importantly &#8211; aligned to the role you\u2019re applying for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-structure\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Structure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We recommend splitting your CV into four sections:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. Personal information<br>2. Qualifications<br>3. Employment history<br>4. Interests<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-personal-information\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Personal Information<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Include your contact details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Full name<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full address<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telephone numbers (day\/evening\/ mobile \u2013 as appropriate)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Email address<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If relevant, state whether you are eligible to work or need a work permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Always include any language capability and state your honest proficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-qualifications\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Qualifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">List your law degree, either a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) or Juris Doctor (JD). You can include the type of bachelor&#8217;s degree or higher education you earned, graduation dates and the name of the institution where you earned the degree. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t forget to mention any professional certifications. Employers also value work-related training that results in certifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-employment-history\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Employment History<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>List your most recent role first, clearly including the dates, job title, size, responsibilities, and achievements in that role.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Focus on your most recent job and allocate more space to it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the company is not well-known, include a brief description of its business.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Include the month and year of starting and ending each job, with your current position listed as &#8220;to date.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Account for any gaps in employment and be prepared to explain them in an interview.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid listing reasons for leaving previous jobs, save that information for the interview.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not exaggerate your experience or accomplishments, honesty is always the best policy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Leave salary information off the CV, but be prepared to discuss it with recruiters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use technical or professional jargon only when necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s a good example of how to structure a role <em>(content has been manufactured):<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-not-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"647\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/03\/cv-example-blog.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/03\/cv-example-blog.png 647w, https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/03\/cv-example-blog-300x235.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 647px) 100vw, 647px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-interests\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Interests<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We like showing interests because it might help create an instant connection with a hiring manager (if they have a similar interest), and they provide some colour to your \u2018on-paper\u2019 personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/12\/cv.pdf\">Click here to view our CV template<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-proofread-your-resume\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Proofread your resume<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, read through your CV before you press send.
