REPRESENTING THE PERFECT CANDIDATE

CVs and résumés

At Eden, we spend a lot of time fact checking CVs and résumés. Our clients know we can cherry pick from the highest calibre of private staff on their behalf in order to deliver impeccable standards of service and integrity.

If you are a candidate looking to register with us at Eden, it will help us enormously if your CV/résumé is complete and current.

Your CV/résumé is the first thing we at Eden – and your future employers see and reading it immediately gives us a profile of the type of person you are. Therefore it is of utmost importance that you stand out from the crowd but also, that you create a true and accurate reflection of yourself and what you can offer.

Prospective employers will want to know your capabilities as well as any experience gained, but it is important to be truthful. Do not leave gaps, account for them. And do not list past employers as references without informing them.

Think carefully about this one page that represents you. Write it in such a way that any achievements are noted. You want to sound indispensable, but at the same time, do not embellish the truth. Prospective employers want an appealing and interesting CV to read, but more than that, they are looking for honesty in an employee. If it does not sound credible, it will paint you in a negative light. And remember that everything can be checked. Access to information online these days means that checks are very easy.
