These are some of the trends that you have to use to write in your Curriculum Vitae. Here we are facing a new generation of recruiters, and you may not be surprised with anything. Also, the most important thing is to highlight and make the person who reads the CV that you are a competent proposal. And that you add value to the company, often leaving aside your level of studies and qualifying how specialized or useful you are in specific subjects.
Simple language
Recruiters spend only six or seven seconds reviewing each CV if you have flashy language or fill-in words you are likely to be discarded. Also, remember that a short CV is better and more efficient, (one or two sheets are sufficient). So, in such a short time you need to reflect the benefits that the company wins with your hiring. And remember, nobody is interested in which primary enrolled you, try to omit those details.
Links to web pages
Do you have a web version of your CV? Unless you’re not looking for work online. Take recruiters to your LinkedIn, your portfolio, or your blog. Only locate the most relevant links, it is possible that if they promote your recruitment, you will have names on social networks like Facebook. But why to speed up those uncomfortable moments, the links that you should put are those that support you as a suitable candidate, and that adds value to the company.
Audiovisual formats
There are times when creativity is rewarded; if you are looking for a creative position. For example, you can make videos, shorts, comics, infographics, etc., or just a visual support, these stand out much more than a simple job application.
Do not sacrifice functionality
If you are going to use visual formats try not to remove any of the features. Also, do not forget that the basic idea of CV is to demonstrate your knowledge. And explain why a company should hire yo. So, show that you are good at what you do and create a high CV Represent and tell what you are worth.
Quantification
How many CVs have we seen with “English 80%, kindness 30%, overwhelming character 100%”. Also, that does not serve in any way to reflect what you know, let alone to get you that position. Recruiters consider that this is vague and extremely vague, delete this from your CV and replace it with your degree of experience in the subject, for example, Proficient in WordPress development, Familiar with the Adobe Suite, especially Adobe Illustrator of which I own the certification issued by Adobe.
Let’s look at an example of a CV from a leaf of a technology celebrity, Elon Musk:
