You need to try and sound like you have done some major shit, have people skills, etc....

Instead of Customer Service "Rep", say "Representative".
Instead of "Handling customer service issues", maybe "Resolving customer service issues"
I would say "Maintaining customer relations"
Instead of "Assist customers with accounting, etc....." I would say "Advising customers"

When it comes to shit like this, its all in the wording. Try and make yourself sound as sophisticated and experienced as possible. Whenever Im writing a paper or applying for a job, I always keep a thesaurus around.

**J.S.N.** · 09-21-2006, 10:03 PM

sorry bra just effing around

**Prada** · 09-22-2006, 06:27 PM

1) Try to be more explicit on your experience? Publicsafety for what. Customer Service for what? Any companies, names?
2)Cover letter? There is no cover.
3)The litteral translation of Curriculum Vitae is " course life" or life story. You have to sell yourself, how do you gather and spark interest and sell yourself?
Therefore must include; education, experience, knowledge, talent,skills, expertise, etcetra. First impression is everything, you impress with a diligent and attractive presentation, they will call.
4)A trick I used was Id learn a whole lot of shit on the company and implement or tailor make each CV for each company. Step two, for the interview I would research a lot about my "target" and impress the interviewer. When you come prepared for your CV and interview it says a lot about one.

**THE_DOME** · 09-22-2006, 06:46 PM

Prada i removed the names of the companies, and for the cover letter i am not really worried about it right now becuause i have already been hired for the vol opportunity
