Hi All

I'm just about to start my application process for applying for a
highly skilled visa for Australia, but I want to get my cv right. Does
anyone have any suggestions or advice on what I would need to keep in
mind when drawing up my cv? I'm an Office Manager at a financial
institution.

Many thanks
Jo-Anne

Hi Jo-Anne

As I understand it. Having a perfect, beautifully presented CV isn't
that important in the early stages of your application. As long as the
assessing authority is able to recognise that you have a skill in
demand or that you have a profession that nets you 'x' number of points
this is the areas you'll need to cover off.

If you profession necessitates that you have specific qualifications
then ensure that you have pulled all of this documentation together.

Sorry of I'm way off the mark but we didn't need to provide a CV as
part of our application although we did go the skilled/sponsored route
(we also work for a big UK financial)

Having met a couple of recruiters in Perth this year, what I do
understand is all the stuff you know about writing a UK CV - Chuck most
of it out of the window.

Long and detailed are the way to go apparently but hopefully others who
have already applied for Aussie jobs since settling in Australia can
provide more info here :)

All the best with your application

regards

Mark
