Let’s talk CVs – please follow these simple tips before applying to TSS:
- Include your name, location and contact details: telephone number and email address please
- Work experience in reverse chronological order: we need to know what you’ve done most recently
- Focus on your admin experience: we only recruit for admin roles so your experience in this area should be prominent and easy to find
- Two page limit: ensure your experience is summarised concisely so your CV is not too long
- Avoid long paragraphs of text: include clear headings that show your job title, employer and dates of employment with a bullet-point list of your main duties there
- Ensure there are no grammatical errors or spelling mistakes
- Do not include personal information such as date of birth, gender, marital status, nationality or photographs on your CV
- No PDFs please – our online system works best with MS Word documents so please ensure you send your CV in this format
