Only the 2% of CVs passes the first selection
Finding a job is certainly not an easy task. It starts with sending dozens of CVs, hoping to receive an answer, but mistakes are often made which can preclude any hope of success.
It was recently shown that a recruiter employs 6 seconds to analyze a CV and of these only the 2% manages to pass the first selection. The Curriculum Vitae is therefore an element to be treated in detail, task made easier by CVapp.it, a platform that has just landed in Italy that allows you to create professional and effective CVs and cover letters in just a few clicks.
Thanks to tips and tricks, the result of a careful analysis of selection techniques and the requirements required by companies, CVapp.it, active service in other countries from 5 years that has already helped over 8 millions of candidates, has created professional and effective Curricula templates that are easy to customize.
When making a CV, Indeed, it is very easy to run into one of the classic mistakes, starting with the use of those words that are now abused and that come, then, immediately detected by HR at first glance. Motivated, passionate, excellent, reliable are just some of those terms that are most used by candidates and which are now seen as standardized and emptied of meaning.
Another element to which a candidate must pay particular attention today is that of social networks: in a recent research the 44% of recruiters said they rejected a candidate for their social media profiles. Taking care of personal branding and social reputation are therefore other fundamental aspects to be successful and brilliantly overcome the selection phase.
