A well-written CV can significantly increase your chances of securing an interview. Here are our top tips for creating a CV, specifically tailored to office-based positions that will get you noticed.


Engineering employers aren't looking for generic CVs, they're looking for evidence of your technical ability, qualifications and hands-on experience. Whether you're a Maintenance Engineer, CNC Machinist or Design Engineer, your CV should clearly demonstrate the skills and expertise that make you the right person for the job.


Industrial employers are often recruiting at pace, so your CV needs to quickly demonstrate that you have the skills, experience and reliability they're looking for. Whether you're applying for a warehouse, production or manufacturing role, a clear and well-structured CV can make all the difference.
