Listing your career details
Most employers will want to know what experience you have
had so your work experience should be listed. Put your most
recent job first and list your achievements and the skills you
have developed. Go backwards and do the same with your
other posts. If you have had a long career, it is not necessary
to spend as much time on your first jobs.
If you are a school-leaver, you could list any holiday or
Saturday jobs you have done. Again do remember to refer to
the skills you have developed. (See Figure 23.)
Identifying the skills

developing and sharpening them:
