Your
CV is essentially a sales leaflet, a marketing pamphlet
– and the product for sale is you! Your CV should
tell the employer: what you want, what you have to offer,
your skills and qualifications and a little about who
you are – enough to intrigue them but never enough
to bore them! Follow our CV ‘rules’ for the
perfect sales pitch.

of a résumé are: Education, Work (or Professional)

include most or all of these, probably in the order named.
