Review Your CV
Back to: Doctor Job Interview Skills Course.
We recommend that you read your CV regularly. There are a number of reasons why this makes sense:
Firstly, you will obviously spend a fair degree of time reading it and re-reading it prior to submitting your application in order to ensure that it is up to date, relevant to the job you are applying for and represents you in the best light.
But after you have submitted your CV and application you should not forget about your CV.
You should also review your CV in the period between applying and being notified about your interview for the purpose of practising examples from your work and other history.
I recommend doing the following:
A few days prior to your interview you should read your CV again. Make sure everything remains correct (somethings do change) and make a note of any new information. Unless there is a really significant change you do not need to submit a new CV.
Ensure you have read what you have said about yourself in your CV in particular to anything in relation to College training, your career goal statement or work achievements.
You want to avoid the embarrassment of an interviewer asking you a question about your CV and not being able to remember what you wrote in your CV.
For this reason, it’s always a good idea to take a copy of your CV with you to the interview so that you can refer to it easily.
