What is CV update?

When was the last time you updated your CV? If you can’t remember, it’s time for a makeover! An updated resume will increase your chances of landing a good job and highlight your skills. Plus, it will beat HR’s applicant tracking systems, ensuring that your CV gets in the right hands.

Is it OK to send an updated resume?

You can send an updated resume by all means but don’t expect it to go to an existing job application unless the Recruiter deems it of benefit to your existing application which is quite rare.

Is it harder to get a job when unemployed?

As the maxim goes, it’s easier to get a job when you already have one. New research shows just how much harder unemployed people have to work to land open positions than their employed competitors—and offers clues on how they can leverage that disparity to their advantage.

Why is getting hired so hard?

Most employees move from job to job throughout their careers. Companies are no longer as loyal to their employees as they once were. Because of that changed relationship, employers need to get an immediate return from their hiring investment. That’s led them to become ever more selective about who they hire.
