1 Eye catcher paper

Did you know that 5 out of 10 applicants CV’s or Resume have not being red by employers, hr’s, or recruiters. Some of the reason in fact is that your CV doesn’t have the right arrangement or lack of creativity or lack of important part rather than unnecessary   elements. Many of my friends in HR’s and Recruitment field rely on this fast screening technique called EYE CATCHER PAPER, the technique is to look at the CV’s one-by-one at least ten seconds and choose the creative and sensible one. So even though your CV’s is having a professional background, or lots of good points but lack of appearance there still a big chance that your CV will not get chosen.
