GUIDE TO WRITING A CV OR RESUME FOR GRADUATE JOBS & INTERNSHIPS | no work experience? fear not!

[@lauragem796]

This is the best presentation of the how and why of a CV/resume I've seen.

Paige I had to smile when I saw "Experience of Windows and iOS computer systems" because iOS is just the system for the phone the one for the actual computer is macOS :)

[@PaigeY]

Lol as I said it’s far from perfect 😆 they’ll know what I’m getting at (hopefully)

[@90sHONEY]

I didn't know that either 😀

[@hitchinaride94]

Such good advice!! :) I once got a job as a waitress in a very expensive hotel in New Zealand just because I included that I liked nature and going on hikes in my CV. They hired me instead of other applicants because the hotel was very remote and surrounded by nature without any civilization for miles and you really needed to love nature to be able to have fun and go on hikes or just enjoy nature when not working. :)

I just drafted my first update and I think it's so much better than it used to be! I need to do some work on the formatting because it's a tiny bit over one page, and then I think I'll send it to the careers team at my uni to look it over because I don't know if I've gone into too much detail. I realised you don't have a short introduction about yourself, and I thought I needed that until now, and I'm so glad to have cut that out lmao

[@galaxy_mooncat779]

I love your videos you’re so calm and relaxed

[@elodiee01]

I love how committed you are!

[@silvialogan9226]

Paige, your CV looks nice and well-organized.

[@WooHooCelery]

Years ago, I was trying to get my first job (a difficult thing to do without experience) so I visited a careers advisor for help with my CV. They decided to make me a whole new CV which involved misspelling my name, creating a word bank at the top of the CV with key words to describe me (my favourite was “good Manor”, I didn’t even know I owned a manor let alone a good one), and made up work experience that anyone who hired me on the back of would realise was a load of crap very quickly. I really hope the people working in that careers advisor office watch this video, they could really learn a few things about creating effective CVs.

[@Frankielubbock]

Got so excited when you mentioned Jesus collage I have an interview there for natural sciences next week! Such a useful video xx

[@lururu]

your cv looks so much better than mine! goes into so much more detail and is very clear. i might revamp mine tomorrow :-) thank u. i didnt think to put in latex ngl

[@marvelfan3436]

This is SO helpful especially as I am trying to get out of one industry into another!!

[@Honeeybee2505]

Hey i'm a graduate in graphic design and this tipp might be not too important but one typographic rule is to never end a text block with just one word in a line because that disturbs the read flow. Always try to end with three or more words in a line to make it easier to read. just some lame formating fact but whatever :D love your videos you do a great job!

[@ellak3276]

Thank you for sharing! This is the best 'how to write a cv' I've ever come across. Do you mind sharing how to write a cover letter as well please?

This video was so helpful. Could you do a guide to writing a cover letter video as well?

[@tacs9960]

I keep coming back to this CV video while job hunting because I trust your word so much Paige 😂. Btw you remind me so much of the lovely Mia Goth!

[@jamesramsey7159]

Well done, do not short change yourself, this is a valuable asset for all who will earnestly listen and follow suggestions. 😉😉

[@JessicaHicks]

Please recent grads, do not add your GPA to your resume unless it’s a requirement and/or you have 3.4 GPA or above. No 2.8 at all. It’s not something to advertise to employers. ✌🏾💖

I am applying for practicum sites as a counseling graduate student. This video was very helpful.

[@guganesan.ilavarasan]

PaigeY, I'll be so greateful if you could make a 'Reasons for applying' guide towards Cambridge, and how different it is from a traditional Statement of Purpose/Interest. I'm applying for next year's M.Phil in Archaeological Science at Cambridge. Thank you for the support & inspiration.

[@suranjitachakraborty2994]

Thank you so much ! I’m currently studying the Open University Maths and Stats degree and I’m looking for my first internship in actuarial so this video is perfect for me. I do think competition against brick uni grads is going to be tough :(

Uk curricula's structure is similar to the Italian one. I just have one question, where can I fit my language skills? Considering that I can speak Italian and English fluently, but also French and German at a good level (B1-B2 I'd say)

[@Lyra94forever]

As a Project Manager (translation/media and localisation field) I would say put them in the first section of your CV if you are looking for a position in my field. Otherwise, you can put it at the end of your CV (for other job types/different fields of work for which knowing a language can help but it is not the most important skill). Also, the CV structure is not that similar to the Italian one, but most CVs will always be similar as they are CVs. Finally, Paige just gave you some ideas, but you can customise your CV in a way that fits your needs/the position you are applying for. I am Italian, by the way :)

[@rainbows945]

The banner/header line is a good idea!

[@himashwethas7078]

It was a much needed video! Thanks Paige. Can u plz upload a video on how did u set up ur LinkedIn account. Thank u in advance:)

[@kristinaba.8848]

Do you only send the CV, when you apply for an intership in the UK? Or do you also send a text, where you make clear, why you want to do that internship and why you think that you might be the right person? (I´m not from the UK but applying right know and it´s different in Germany :) )

[@hcrliyeva5263]

hiiii Paige. I am watching your videos. Everything is great🤩🤩😎

@PaigeY can i know what was your tuition fees at Cambridge and if you had any scholarship, if yes how much was the deduction ?

[@ammarif618]

Paige, we love you

[@lulusbubble1017]

Hey, would it be a good idea to include a picture of yourself?

[@nicolemorales8493]

So useful! Did this CV was presented at your application for Unis? I'm at that stage and I wonder what is the difference between a CV for work and for a University application

[@sanjanar3245]

Hi Paige, could you please clarify what kind of a CV needs to be made when applying for a graduate research assistant role? Is it an academic CV or a skills-based CV ?

[@jianliang6124]

I am confused, how long is the UK education system? 3 years of university, 2 years of college? ?? years of high school? ?? year of junior high? ?? years of elementary?

[@nathanroche2009]

Can you do more about finding internships? Even a point in the right direction

[@PaigeY]

It really depends on the type of internship you’re going for! e.g. large companies often have big internship schemes with application portals on their websites, while research institutions usually just take speculative emails and won’t advertise the internships. A quick google is your best starting point, find out the norm for the sector you’re looking at and go from there. Platforms like Bright Network are also often helpful.

Isn't natsci a BA at cambridge? (as with all their undergraduate degrees)

Correct, that was a mis-edit (it did say MSc as was thinking of staying on for the masters!)

[@aashigarg8923]

Hi PAIGE...huge fan...plz reply

[@asonsabag9759]

Very nice CV, even if I find it a bit dispersive (so white, does not encourage reading). I usually try to write all the information on one page but if u have 2 is still good! Usually I don’t just enter name, address etc but also Skype contact, driving license (if I have one), Linkedin address and personal website if it's present and date of birth. Work experiences should go before school, it would be good to include also the languages spoken. I recommend the site "Canva" to see some really wonderful CV! Good job, your CV is well done tho!
