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

  • Most HR cvs I have seen are very poor and really quite task focused. “I took part in X” or “ I wrote a policy on Y”.

    Good CVs articulate the real business benefits that you have delivered and the organisational changes you have made.

    Why is the business better because of the tasks you performed? . What business problems did you solve? It’s answering the “So what???” Questions that many can’t  or don’t do.

    Add in as many meaningful metrics as you can ( it’s amazing the number of HR CVs with no numbers on them.

    Keep it punchy. Keep it commercial and hit people with why you are a real asset that will drive the business forward rather than just a cost drain who does big standard HR.
