Learn moreRandom House presents the audiobook edition of The 7 Second CV by James Reed, read by the author and Willow Nash.
Write a killer CV and land your dream job.
It takes an employer just seven seconds to save or reject a job applicant’s CV. In this book, James Reed – chairman of REED, Britain’s largest recruitment company – offers invaluable and specific advice on what employers want to see in the CVs they receive and how you can stand out from the crowd.
Unlike other career development books, the honest advice presented here has been compiled from one-to-one interviews, surveys and countrywide workshops across REED’s network of recruitment consultants. This book is an accessible and enjoyable read, intensely practical and packed with pull-out quotes, layout examples and tips.
Find out what future employers are looking for and take the first step to start loving Mondays again.
*Contains a downloadable PDF of CV templates*
