Airlines receive an influx of CVs/resumes, and if they request an application form instead, your commitment shines through in its completion! When submitting a CV, though easier in some aspects, it must stand out amidst the competition.
It might be tempting to forward an outdated, standard CV/resume, but tailoring it to the specific job and company is worthwhile. Highlight the most relevant experiences, such as roles in customer service, catering, first aid, safety, or public interaction, especially if you've held multiple positions. Keep your CV concise at around 2 pages, focusing solely on pertinent details rather than unnecessary information.
CV templates typically begin with a personal statement, followed by qualifications and employment history. However, these sections often lack originality.
Personal statement – Avoid generic phrases like ‘I am reliable’ or ‘I’m hardworking.’ Instead, illustrate these traits with concrete examples. For instance, demonstrate reliability by highlighting instances like ‘I consistently arrived to work on time without any tardiness in the three years I’ve worked there.’ Adding personal details like these will set you apart from other applicants.
Hobbies – Does it capture attention to see another CV listing ‘socializing with friends, fitness, and travel’ as interests? Differentiate yourself by elaborating on these activities. Explain the type of fitness regimen you pursue, specifics of your social gatherings, destinations you’ve explored while traveling, and how those experiences have inspired you. Highlight any achievements tied to your hobbies.
Employment history – Make your employment section unique and engaging. Rather than detailing every aspect of the job, emphasize key points. Include a segment titled ‘My Contribution’ or ‘Successes’ where you describe how you impacted the role or organization. Concentrate on jobs and skills pertinent to the role you’re seeking.
