Hello everyone!
It's time for our online class with some new issues to talk
about J
Sooner or later you will find yourselves in a situation like
this:
Before you officially step into adulthood and start out
looking for a job, it is essential for you to write a professional CV that will
represent you in the best light. It should be your self marketing tool that will
give you a chance to show off all your attributes that can make you a perfect
choice for the potential employers.
Your CV should be your creative and
meaningful personal profile, with clearly identified qualifications and
achievements, along with your personal skills and abilities that are relevant
for your future career. It has to make you stand out among hundreds of other
candidates applying for the same job. It has to be concise and easy to read,
updated every now and then and tailored to suit the requirements of each
particular job you are applying for. And of course, arm yourself with a lot of
confidence, self esteem and the belief that you will really find the job you
are looking for. Good luck!
Here are some useful links for writing a CV:

And some tasks for your English practice:
Have you already written your CV? What would be an ideal job
for you? Do you think there will be less/more (un)employed people in the
future? Discuss with your colleagues.
I look forward to seeing your comments soon!
Best regards,
Izela
Yes, I wrote my CV but it is too small now. An ideal job for me is a educator in kindergarden. I hope my dream will come true and for a few years I will be working that job. I think that in the future will be the same situation because the young people are passive. We must do something to change this situation.

Dear Erna,
DeleteI'm glad that you have already written your CV. Although it seems to be too short right now, don't worry, there will be more and more good things to include as the time goes by and you continue to upgrade your knowledge and skills. I hope you will become a kindergarten teacher very soon.
I am happy you recognize that young people must take an active role in creating their own future.

Izela
Yes, I wrote my CV but I think that, currently, I don't have a lot to offer. First I need to finish faculty, and after that I can apply for some job.An ideal job for me is a educator in kindergarten. I really hope so that in the future will be more employed people.

Dear Muamera,
DeleteIt's nice that you already have your CV, as your colleague Erna, and I hope you will have more and more to offer in the near future. I wish you good luck with your studies and starting to work in a kindergarten. It would be nice if all young people could find a job as soon as they complete their studies.
Best,
Izela
Dear Muamera,
DeleteI believe that it is important for us to get some expirience during our time in college. We can get some extra expirience and knowledge through informal education, seminars, workshops and volunteering. These are all things that can fill up our CV and help us to get the job easier and to gain some advantage over other candidats.
Best regards,

ReplyDeleteYes, I wrote my CV in English, and I'm satisfied how it looks in English. Unfortunately, there is a lot unemployed people in our country. Currently, I work in pharmacy, and for me that is perfect job. But also, I would like to work with kids, and I hope that I will finish my Faculty in two years, so I can look for job in school.

ReplyDeleteWriting CV is nothing new to me. I've had one for almost 4 years now, and over the time it just grew and expanded. Hopefully, I will add more accomplishments to it.
ReplyDeleteMy perfect job is to work with children, no matter what kind of a job it is.
Speaking of problem of unemployment in our country, until young people decide to wake up and do something about it, nothing will change. As long as everyone just sits back, watch, and just hopes for the best, change will never come.
With warmest regards,

Hi everyone,
ReplyDeleteWriting a CV is a new a strange thing for me. I did not know how to write it, and it is was so hard for me. Before one month, I need it for a job. My perfect job is a job with a children, and I went to school to learn it how to behave with them and how to give them special education.
I need a very good CV for a job, and I had to read a lot of books and articles to learn how to write it. Now, I help other people with writing a good CV.
With special regards,
Saudina

ReplyDeleteDear All,
ReplyDeleteI think this is a very important issue and will face everybody of us soon.I have been surprised with the lack of knowledge regarding this subject. So far, I did not think about it, this lesson was a strong motivation for me to start writing my CV. When I read this text again, I arrange my thoughts about how it would looks like and what are the most important points that need to be included there, and since its a marketing sheet for me, I will put all my efforts to be creative, so I wish it will be high qualified, meaningful, with the European criteria's in writing CVs. I like to notice here that my seeking job is a primary school teacher...
Best Regards

Hello everyone, I wrote my first CV immediately after graduating the high school. Since then, it has only been used as a "framework" and every year I add new achievements, skills, experiences, knowledge, new abilities. Compared to my first CV I progressed a lot and I'm really proud of myself, I love to open it often and see what has changed for several years. It puts the smile on my face every time, when on one paper I see a few sentences and on the other full sheet. I hope that after graduation it will be completed and that will help me find a job in my profession, something I want for all of my colleagues as well. Elvida
ReplyDeleteHello,

Best regards
