CVs
Most CVs aren't bad — they're wasteful. The recruiter spends six seconds on the first pass and finds nothing memorable. The guides in this cluster fix that: how to turn duty-led bullets into impact-led achievements, how to optimise the structure for the ATS that screens you before any human sees the page, and the seven highest-leverage changes you can make in under an hour. The advice is UK-focused (formatting conventions, length norms, what to leave off) and 2026-current (no 'Objective' statement, no References-on-request line, ATS-aware layout). If you want a second opinion on your CV right now, the AI Job Answers CV Evaluation tool reads it against any job description you paste and tells you what's strong, what's missing, and the top changes worth making.
