Memorable moments-
Everything happens for first time in life & those first time or first few moments are the ones that you remember the most.
One such moment was when I prepared my Digital CV. Initially i thought it was a Exhaustive exercise & i wont enjoy it but at the end i can surely say it was a purposeful & satisfying experience.
I thought about what can be different in it from normal Word CV but yes it is totally different experience as alongwith your Qualifications & Work-Ex related skills your non verbal as well as Presentation skills play their part.
Whenever i do any thing i always think about the purpose & Its Advantages :
Purpose :
It is an innovative way to showcase our talents and demonstrate our suitability for a vacancy.
It is type of innovation
Advantages :
Beat the competition: aside from the speed benefits in terms of physically getting a resume in front of an employer versus snail mail, digital CVs can be eye-catching, engaging, humorous and elevate an applicant above the rest; for their effort if nothing else.
Appropriate channel: as more jobs are advertised online, it is fitting that CVs should be posted via this channel also. With so many applications to sift through, this saves a huge amount of time and also allows recruiters to search for suitable candidates faster.
Reflects changes in the recruitment process: a large proportion of today's recruiters are expected to research candidates online, while most managers admit to doing it, whether morally right or not. As such, a positive, professional online presence, in whatever form, is all-but essential and can vastly influence an individual's job prospects.
Demonstrates skills: a digital CV can indicate that an applicant has initiative, is creative, possesses technical abilities and has original ideas that transcend the 'everyday'. They can also infer precisely how passionately an individual wants to work for a specific brand or in a particular role in ways that a paper CV simply isn't able to convey.
Representative of modern working life: using a digital CV is a method which is far more appropriate for the application of modern roles. Changes in working practices and workers' own expectations/ attitudes mean we have seen roles essentially deconstruct and become non-linear.
Looking at various advantages it is befitting that i made my Digital CV & advice everyone out there in the world looking after job to make one of their own.
Happy Learning
