It’s important because the hiring panel including the employer, pays close attention to this segment of your CV. But this section is not restricted to your CV, you should keep your social media profiles, as well as any accounts on professional websites and job boards, updated. Career marketplaces like Graduatewise.com are an amazing way to account the best parts of your professional experience. They have a dedicated space for this segment for any candidate.
Let’s take a look at some effective tips to write About Me section on your CV. That would help you secure your desired job role.
1. Mention your Skills/Qualification:
Always mention your skills/qualification that can explain your domain and expertise better. It also tells the recruiter about your experience level. For example, if you mention Software Engineer as your title, your job level would be considered of junior to mid-level, but if you add a Senior to the same title, you would automatically be considered for a senior role, may be even Lead role in your next job.
2. Related Skills:
It is but natural that you will apply for the opening because you consider yourself fit for the role, or you possess those skills that are required to hold on to the position. To validate, you should also mention those appropriate skill sets in this section too. Make sure to keep it brief because at a later stage in the CV you would be elaborating those skills.
3. Summary of your CV:
Your About Me section is actually a kind of summary of your CV. Though its length is shorter than a cover letter, it still summarises your complete career graph in a few lines. Hence, you need to be a pro at putting together concise yet meaningful information only.
4. Pay attention to the Language:
You must curate the whole information about yourself very thoughtfully. The communication should be very clear, without any grammatical mistakes. Proofread it multiple times before you finalise it. Graduatewise.com is a platform that lets you make numerous updates until you get it right. You don’t have to worry about submitting the erroneous info, because you have full control over your profile, which means you can edit your info as much as you like.
5. Highlight your expertise:
You must showcase your real skills, those that would make your profile the most suited to an employers’ needs. Highlight your key abilities that makes you a perfect fit for the role. They must show how you'll benefit the company.
6. Relate to the position:
Your statements should clarify how your skills are related to the role you are applying for. It’s supposed to be a one liner, but a carefully crafted statement will give the right idea about your job role and goals.
Now, candidates need to understand that this section should be written as per the industry or the role you are applying to. There are several samples online that can be easily copied and pasted in your profile. Note that they are only for reference and teach you to frame the complete segment, literally and symbolically.
Its imperative that an About Me section of a Teacher would be very different from a Photographer intern. Graduatewise.com makes it very simple for the applicants to write about the various points in this section. How? It bifurcates some of those points like career level, career status, job period, wherein you can include all your details in short thereby giving the suitable info for the employers to catch up to.
Go through these tips to create a strong section displaying your best skills. We are sure you'll get your dream internship in no time.
