In this workshop, students develop their CV and application writing skills to stand out from other applicants. Students will understand how to showcase their experiences, achievements and skills professionally as well as how to tailor CVs for a job role. They also explore how to write a cover letter to support their applications. During the workshop, students hear top tips from business professionals as well as receive feedback on their CVs.
Join an in-person workshop hosted by The Switch and share your CV writing tips as well as support them as they explore how to write a cover letter.
