Before and After Examples

Mid-career procurement and logistics

Alessandro: "I'm looking for a CV that grabs attention, shows what I'm capable of achieving, and increases my chances of getting interviews for procurement management positions."

Transformations: Profile statement and title that punches leadership. Keywords integrated and highlighted so they jump out. Areas of expertise emphasised for immediate understanding. Achievements  for each position backed by statistics. Fewer words so easier to read. Result: shortlisted for 1 in 3 job applications; 2 job offers within 6 weeks.

Mid-career finance and return to employment

Cornelis: "I have been out of work for two years and need a CV that helps me get back into the NGO/humanitarian job market. I'm not sure yet if I want to focus on finance or business support, so having both would be helpful."

Transformations: Powerful introduction that clearly shows main skills and value. Functional layout that reveals depth of finance and business support leadership, management, technical know-how and ethics. Employment history listed to show consistency in career. More ATS-friendly layout.

Early career humanitarian project management

Elena: "Finding a job in the humanitarian aid and development cooperation sector can be very hard if you don’t have a at least consolidated experience of 3-5 years. Therefore, I need a CV that can bring value to my still modest professional experience, in order to grow and continue working in this sector."

Transformations: Started with career objective to show enthusiasm followed by a key knowledge and skills section to grab attention and show key insights. Placed education before professional experience to emphasise recent knowledge in humanitarian issues. Shorter and punchier descriptions for easier understanding. More ATS-friendly layout for online job applications. Reduced length from 3 to 2 pages.

Graphic CV Examples

Mid-career learning and development

Nathalie is a seasoned expert in learning and development and needed a frame to help her make an urgent job application stand out from internal competition. This frame allowed her to highlight her core value and strengths as well as reveal her achievements in her community.

Consultant risk and financial management

Richard needed a CV frame that he could easily adapt for risk and financial markets consultancies he wanted to pitch for. This format helped him showcase his chosen skill-sets and attributes, feature his achievements in a reader-friendly way, and demonstrate the calibre of his previous clients and assignments.
