Anyone have a good example of a HR CV they are willing to share?

Sati

Hi all!

I have over 10+ years plus experience in HR ranging from entry level HR adminstrator up to HR Advisor/ HR Manager and now HR Consultant.

I have a diverse skill set which i have included in my CV however after a recent professional CV review i was given the feedback that my CV is underselling my experience and i need to review it with the view of making my experience more results driven rather than outlining my responsibilities.

I do agree with this but finding it difficult to switch the language being used - my ask is therefore does anyone have any tips or guidance on how i can do this?

Has anyone got HR based CV's they could share so i could use as an example to start re-inventing mine to allow it to make more of an impact

Thank you so much in advance

  • A CV is a very personal thing, so I'm not sure it would necessarily help you. But your reviewer is probably right: a good CV will emphasize less what you've *done* and more what you've *achieved*.

    But if you wanted an exercise to help you articulate your achievements in HR more explicitly, I couldn't recommend anything more highly than the Chartership process of the CIPD. If your experience is as you say, then you should consider applying for Chartered Member status or, at least, going though the application process, as it's very well geared towards making us articulate the actual value we have added to our businesses.

    Thanks Robey- currently undertaking chartered membership- and agree there will be elements which i can transfer across into my cv.
    Its trying to articulate all the effective useful stuff i do everyday into a format which evidences the business benefit with real tangible outputs. I shall carve out some time on a weekly basis to stop and evaluate deliverables and convert them into wins- stuff i should be doing but just dont find the time in between projects.
